Information
Burning Shadows is the name given to the third main expansion of the Sun & Moon Series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. In Japan, it was released as the To Have Seen the Battle Rainbow · Darkness that Consumes Light dual sets that make up the third expansion block in the Pokémon Card Game Sun & Moon Era. The two subsets tie in with the 20th Pokémon movie, featuring key Pokémon that appear in it, such as Ho-Oh and Marshadow. The English expansion will be released on August 4, 2017 while the Japanese subsets will be released on June 16, 2017.
Burning Shadows contains over 140 cards, including 12 new Pokémon-GX and several Pokémon native to the Alola region. The Japanese equivalent To Have Seen the Battle Rainbow and Darkness that Consumes Light feature Ho-Oh and Necrozma, respectively, with each subset containing 51 cards (excluding Secret cards). The English release brings together the release of the two Japanese subsets and the Facing a New Trial subset, released on April 21, 2017.
Upon purchasing a booster box of either subset in Japan, patrons received an exclusive SM-P Promo card based on which booster box they purchase. Lucario was handed out for To Have Seen the Battle Rainbow while Porygon-Z was handed out for Darkness that Consumes Light.
