Pre-release events for Pokémon TCG are held at tournament-official game stores. These stores often host events and will sell Sword & Shield – Astral Radiance Build & Battle kits that include cards made for deck-building, four packs of the new set, and one of four possible SWSH Black Star Promos stamped with the set’s logo. These holographic promo cards are exclusive to Sword & Shield – Astral Radiance Build & Battle kits and include Hisuian Samurott, Hisuian Basculegion, Wydeer, and Magnezone. Many collectors like to get the entire set, which may be difficult to do this weekend as some stores limit the number of kits you can buy. Eager collectors may have to wait until pre-release weekend is over and limits lift in order to purchase more Build & Battle kits.

While stores are not allowed to sell booster boxes or individual packs yet, many stores will offer three extra Sword & Shield – Astral Radiance packs for free with the purchase of a Build & Battle box.

Here is how Pokémon TCG describes Sword & Shield – Astral Radiance:

Explore a vast wilderness unlike anything you’ve ever experienced, where you’ll encounter Decidueye, Typhlosion, and Samurott as Hisuian Pokémon VSTAR. Meet talented Trainers and other powerful Pokémon that call the ancient Hisui region home, and discover a new kind of Shiny Pokémon: Radiant Pokémon. Charge courageously into battle in a new world with the Pokémon TCG: Sword & Shield—Astral Radiance expansion!
