With Sword & Shield officially concluded, the Scarlet & Violet era of the Pokémon TCG kicked off in March 2023 with a focus on the ninth generation of Pokémon games and the new region: Paldea. It all began with the Scarlet & Violet base set, which introduced major, lasting changes to the hobby.
Now, the borders of the cards have become silver, matching the Japanese releases. Another major change is that now, each pack culminates in at least a holo-rare and two reverse holos. The major mechanic of this era is the lowercase ex, which features a double holographic pattern of a horizontal shine and a starry sparkle. Full Art exs now use a green, foil outline around the Pokémon.
It's a perfectly beautiful piece that shows the Pokémon lit by the sun either setting or dawning, with the sandbox and Sandygast looking as if they're waiting for the kids to come back and play. Teeziro debuted in Sword & Shield – Chilling Reign with cards featuring Aggron, Lycanroc, and Golurk.
