surging sparks pokemon card set - Scarlet & Violet - - Latios Currents crackle and dragons roar in the Pokémon TCG Pokémon Trading Card Game: Scarlet

They are all reprints from the early Scarlet & Violet series

This collection is optimized for collectors searching by sealed Pokmon cards , specific sets like Scarlet & Violet , Prismatic Evolutions , and Destined Rivals , and formats like Booster Boxes , Elite Trainer Boxes , Booster Bundles , and Battle Decks

The activated ability is rather expensive though, so it plays best in decks that know they have to turn aside a single prominent threat

But it is fair to say were seeing an increased focus on LoTR in the mainstream

The inclusion of Raichu and Staraptor are both solid promo choices, as both cards have potential in other decks (Raichu, more so than Pikachu)
