The Pokemon Trading Card Game (TCG) has experienced a significant transformation with the introduction of The Triumphant Light Cards, bringing a fresh set of 96 cards and revolutionizing the game's meta. The Triumphant Light expansion not only introduces a new booster pack but also unveils the mythical Pokemon, Arceus, and a novel battle mechanic known as Link Abilities.
The introduction of Arceus and Link Abilities marks a pivotal shift in gameplay. This new mechanic allows Pokemon to execute combined effects when Arceus or Arceus EX is in play, enhancing strategic depth and player engagement.
Arceus EX
The star of the Triumphant Light set is undoubtedly Arceus EX, classified under the prestigious four-diamond rarity. Arceus’s ability, Fabled Lustre, renders him immune to all special conditions, while his Ultimate Force attack deals 70 damage plus additional damage for each benched Pokemon. Below are the detailed stats for Arceus EX:
- Rarity: Four-diamond, 2-star, 3-star, crown
- HP: 140
- ATK: 70
- ATK Energy: Three Colorless
- Retreat Cost: 2
- Weakness: Fighting
- Ability: Fabled Lustre
- Attack: Ultimate Force
Arceus EX also empowers other Pokemon with special boosts through Link Abilities such as Power Link, Resilience Link, Vigor Link, Speed Link, and Cunning Link. These abilities offer players innovative combinations and dynamic playstyles, transforming the game's strategic landscape.
