Another Pok\u00e9mon TCG set has now been confirmed for release. Heat Wave Arena is set to be launched in Japan on 14 March 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Heat Wave Arena [SV9a]<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Heat Wave Arena will be headlined by a Cynthia’s Garchomp ex card. In addition, anyone who purchases a Heat Wave Arena booster box from 24 March to a date yet to be announced will also receive copies of the three winning cards within a special 3-card pack from the recently-concluded 2024 Pok\u00e9mon TCG Illustration Contest<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The set’s release was announced on the same day as that of The Glory of Team Rocket, another Pok\u00e9mon TCG slated for release next year. That set drops a little over a month after Heat Wave Arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
