You'll find the brainy Alakazam V in both playable and display sized, together with treasures from Pokémon TCG booster packs.

The Pokemon TCG: Alakazam V Box Includes:

  • 1 foil promo card featuring Alakazam V
  • 1 foil oversize card featuring Alakazam V
  • 4 Pokémon TCG Booster Packs
  • A code card for the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online

Original Post

A Spanish TCG website Alpha Tyrant TCG has obtained an image of an empty English Alakazam V Box. It has been rumored that Alakazam would be in a V Box in January. It is unknown if this will contain the Japanese version of Alakazam from Astonishing Volt Tackle or an Alternate Art version.

It's exciting to see an Alakazam card due to issue surrounding it's Basic and State 1 evolutions. Since Pokemon V don't evolve this allows The Pokemon Company to release Alakazam into the TCG. This is the first Alakazam card in over 4 years since XY Fates Collide featuring Alakazam EX and M Alakazam-EX.

V Boxes normally contain 1 Promo, 1 Jumbo Promo, 2 Bootsers of the current set (Vivid Voltage), 2 Booster from older sets, 1 Code card for TCGO and retail for $19.99. This article will be updated once the official box and description is revealed.
