Pokémon Destined Rivals Elite Trainer Box promo card revealed

The Pokemon Company has revealed the promo card that will come with the Trading Card Game’s Destined Rivals Elite Trainer Box.

Pokémon Elite Trainer boxes typically include 9 packs from the set and include a promo card, featuring special artwork of one of the featured Pokemon from that trading card expansion. Now, The Pokémon Company have revealed the promo card that will be included in the Destined Rivals Elite Trainer Box.

The promo card for the Destined Rivals Elite Trainer box will be Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet. Although they don’t feature on the card, this is clearly a reference to the Wobbuffet owned by Jessie and James, the anime Team Rocket Duo.

The card itself features multiple Team Rocket grunts, a Drowzee, and a Sneasel.

The card will be part of the Destined Rivals set, which was revealed this week. On Tuesday, The Pokemon Company addressed issues that saw The Pokemon Center online store become unavailable for several hours.
