ALL ‘Platinum: Arceus’ Scans

Update #2 (1:00 PM Sunday): Added the last two scans, Kabutops (#4) and shiny Shinx (#SH12), thanks to Shinygyarados, George S., and GL Mo. | Update (11:00 PM Saturday): Added eight more cards thanks to Torterra Chips, Matt, Lugia58, Brandon Palmer, and Skitty. Arceus LV.X #94 has such a beautiful holofoil background! We’re now only missing Kabutops and shiny Shinx – if you have these, please scan and e-mail them to [email protected]. Thank you! The new scans are the first eight below.

As usual, we have early scans of the next set – this time it’s Platinum: Arceus! Click the thumbnails below for larger images. There really aren’t any surprises in the set; it is almost exactly the same as the Japanese Advent of Arceus. Buffer Piece was supposed to be in the last English set but was delayed until this set for some reason. The nine regular Arceus cards are in their own subset like Rotom in Rising Rivals and the Unown in EX Unseen Forces, labeled “AR#” and keeping the same holofoil background “wave” pattern as the Japanese Arceus cards.

Bangiras has updated the Advent of Arceus FAQ to use the English names for attacks, Powers, Bodies, etc. The document should be helpful to anyone judging prereleases, so be sure to read over it.

To find a prerelease near you, click here. I can’t go to any prereleases this weekend due to yet another major essay due on Monday, so if anyone gets the twelve cards we are missing (nine regular cards and the three shinies), please e-mail large scans of them to [email protected] and you will get credit for it on the front page! Thank you!
