Pokémon’s new TCG set, Scarlet and Violet — Twilight Masquerade, is bringing Ogerpon to the card game on May 24. While pre-release events for this set start on May 11, avid collectors will likely want to pre-order it early.
Ogerpon is the crown jewel of this set, as there will be several cards featuring the beloved ogre Pokémon donning its different masks. Though Twilight Masquerade was only announced for the western market, TCG experts have noted that this set combines the Japanese Transformation Mask and Crimson Haze TCG expansions, so you can actually get a head start looking at some of the cards, even though they’re printed with Japanese text.
We’ve got all of the latest info on the various products launching as part of the new expansion below. If you love Ogerpon and are ready put down some cash ahead of the launch, check out the retailers that are accepting pre-orders.

Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet — Twilight Masquerade booster bundle (6 packs)
I’ve said this in other Pokémon TCG pre-order posts, and it’s still true: booster bundles are my personal favorite things to buy when a new TCG expansion comes out. It’s a box of just six booster packs, with no other frills or gimmicks. It tends to be cheaper than buying six packs separately (depending on where you’re buying from) and is the best thing to buy if you just want to open some packs.
Each booster is guaranteed to have 10 cards: four commons, three uncommons, three foils, and one energy card. There’s also an additional Pokémon TCG Live code card. One of the three foils is guaranteed to be at least rare or higher.
Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet — Twilight Masquerade booster three-pack
These three booster packs also come with an additional card featuring either Snorlax or Revaroom. Depending on where you’re ordering from online, the extra card you’ll get is random, just like the cards inside the packs.
Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet — Twilight Masquerade booster box (36 packs)
If you want to go hard in the paint by opening tons of packs, you can grab one of these booster boxes. At Best Buy’s $119 sale price, this calculates to about $3.30 per pack, which is cheaper than GameStop’s per pack price, which is $4.99.
