All 140 ‘Single / Rapid Strike Master’ Cards Revealed! By: Water Pokémon Master Posted 1 month ago to TCG 29 comments All 140 regular cards from Japan’s Single Strike Master & Rapid Strike Master have been revealed on the official Pokemon TCG website! The dual sets release in Japan next Friday. The secret rare cards will slowly be revealed between tonight and Tuesday night — stay tuned! The cards from these sets will become part of our Battle Styles set. It will release on March 19th. This set introduces two “mechanic groups” to the TCG: Single Strike and Rapid Strike cards. Cards of the same mechanic group can support each other with certain attacks, Abilities, Trainer cards, and Energy cards. This is just like Pokemon SP, Team Plasma cards, Ultra Beasts, and other mechanic groups of the past. Thanks goes to Bangiras, Arantxa T., Jake C., and JustInBasil for the translations!

Level Ball! Looks like Mr Rime has some standard format ammo and a consistency booster. Also generally good for low HP decks like Mad Party.
I’m super excited about this set there’s a possibility game play wise that things may be changing for the better.
Corviknight VMAX has free retreat, ignores abilities and a 240 damage attack? Christ, that could be scary. Begone, Zacian, ADP has a new main partner (semi-sarcastic)
when you realized that the set info for battle styles says 60 Battle Style card but the Jap set gives us 34
I can see why you’re excited since every card of you that the Pokémon company has released has under 90– (Everyone else: *facepalms themselves*) Me: “wait, you’re not an actual Victini?” Cheesy jokes aside, great news!
I only count 36 Single/Rapid Strike cards (18 each) when the official blurb for Battle Styles says 60. Could it be some stuff from Matchless Fighters are in our set?
Glad to see Frillish and Timburr lines return from their Gen 6 graves. Not thrilled that Frillish and Jellicent continue to be printed only as Water cards and this time, unlike every other cards featuring the line, they didn't even bother putting the girl forms in the background.
If Sword and Shield takes place in Galar it's understandable to see world-wide Pokemon like Electivire and regional Pokemon like Galarian Mr. Mime...but why are there Alola specific cards (Tapu Bulu, Necrozma), and why are some of them V Max when gigantimax is a condition exclusive to the Galar region?
There isn't, there's been an error in information, they're both Flapple. Look at the card names on the images, they're both the same, "アップリュー" which is Flapple's japanese name. if the Vmax was Appletun it would have a different name
The TCG doesn't follow the video game logic. Typically every Pokemon gets a card per series. The Abra line, Bonsly, and Mantyke were some of the only Pokemon not printed during the Sun & Moon series of cards. I assume there will be zero Ultra Beast and Alolan cards during the Sword & Shield series of cards.
Durant Mill is apparently back... but no revive, no rotom option or hell, even gladion to get durants out of prizes getsme less excited . We still have one set for those options tho, because no one is going to play this while ADP reigns. I would also kill for Special Charge to be reprinted, as Twin Energy is ok but you may still need to get off 5 attacks or have a prized Twin Energy and that will bite you in the ass. Kingdra, Sandaconda and Jellicent make for decent meme/petdecks.
