New Crown Zenith TCG Cards Revealed

Exciting times for Pokémon TCG fans! The Crown Zenith set launches on Jan. 20. This marks the last collection of the Sword and Shield era. We’ve spotted five more English cards, including Zeraora VSTAR and an autographed Bea card. With more signed cards expected, fans can hardly wait.

Scarlet and Violet Glitch Buzz

Since Scarlet and Violet’s release, glitches have kept fans talking. A recent glitch shows a character disappearing after meeting a Salandit. They bump into a Bagon then plunge off a cliff! Players are laughing but also asking for fixes.

“I hate it when that happens,” said one player. Another added, “I want them to patch in some encounter immunity because this is so annoying.”

Nintendo is on the case, working to smooth out these issues.

Wrapping Up

It’s been another eventful day for Pokémon Go trainers and TCG enthusiasts. Scarlet and Violet players got a laugh from the latest glitch, but it highlights ongoing performance problems. Here’s looking forward to fixes and more exciting updates.
