The Pokemon Company will launch the Cosmic Eclipse expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game on November 1. The expansion follows the release of Hidden Fates this month (see "‘Pokémon’s’ ‘Hidden Fates’ Revealed").

The Pokémon Sun & Moon - Cosmic Eclipse expansion will bring over 230 cards to the game, including 9 brand-new TAG Team Pokémon-GX and 7 more Pokémon-GX. Cosmic Eclipse will also introduce a new Special Energy card and the first appearance of TAG TEAM Supporter cards.

The expansion features new TAG TEAM combinations of Charizard & Braixen-GX, Venusaur & Snivy-GX, Blastiose & Piplup-GX, and Solgelo & Lunala-GX debut alongside new triple TAG TEAMs of Acres & Dialga & Palkia-GX and Togepi & Cleffa & Igglybuff-GX. The expansion’s new TAG TEAM Supporter cards depict two trainers, like Red & Blue and Cynthia & Caitlin, on a single Trainer card. Cosmic Eclipse will feature special cards with illustrations of Pokémon with their trainers.

The prerelease for Cosmic Eclipse will be held October 19-27.

The Pokémon Company will be introducing Pokémon from the upcoming Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield video games to the TCG later this year (see "‘Sword & Shield’ Comes to ‘Pokémon TCG’").
