Platinum: Arceus - Arceus!

The set logo for Platinum: Arceus has been revealed, as you can see below next to the official press release. We have also learned that the set’s two theme decks will be named “Flamemaster” and “Stormshaper,” featuring the Fire-type and Lightning-type Arceus cards respectively. As reported previously, the set is based off the Japanese Advent of Arceus set and will be released in stores on November 4th, with prereleases taking place the last two weekends of October.

Additionally, the poster pack that will be released with the set will feature one of the Japanese Arceus movie promos, as shown in this picture. It comes with two booster packs of the set, two POP-series packs, the holo Arceus card, and a double-sided poster showing all the cards in the set. It will retail for $9.99.

The blister pack image below shows that the Majestic Dawn Darkrai will be included, but it’s just a placeholder image – the real card is unknown. The blister pack will however come with the Arceus coin shown.
