I would think that they would give us kind of a "Best of SV" set this year and then focus solely on the Mega era for next year's set since it will only be a 1-1/2-year era.

The last part doesn't make much sense because we've had multiple pre-release promo artworks that were never released elsewhere, they aren't always sourced from the High Class Set. The reason why they decided to not comission any new artwork for the DRI promos is a mistery.

High Class Sets are released in December

That defeats the whole purpose of the game, it just becomes sollitaire. Why would anyone play anything else?

It was already in the Excluded cards section.

This is a subset in Japan, there will be no new gym promos related to it.

That's why there are Booster Bundles now. You don't need to buy different products just for packs.

I am a Judge. It doesn't matter if a card has a regulation mark or not. As long as it's a direct reprint it can be used in official tournaments, as it's the case.

yes, you can

It isn't the first, there is a Magikarp originally from HGSS which was reprinted during the SM era.

Rare Candy never rotates. It doesn't need a new regulation mark until the first set of 2026 to stay in the format.

We have gym promos added to our sets all the time, specially the ex and trainer. The regular pokémon cards are usually the ones turned into promos but sometimes they are added to sets (and Destined Rivals is likely to feature Hippopotas/Hippowdon from series 8, along with Rabsca ex and TM Machine).

There was literally no reason to expect that they would have SARs in this set. They have never done that and would not do it now just because.
