This new expansion focuses on dragon types, Galarian forms of the Legendary birds best known from the Kanto region, and Eevee&#8217;s various evolutions. In total, Evolving Skies boasts more than 200 new cards, including 18 Pok\u00e9mon V, 15 Pok\u00e9mon VMAX, 24 trainer cards, a new Special Energy Card, and more cards that use the new Single Strike and Rapid Strike mechanics.<\/p>\n<p>The Pok\u00e9mon Company sent us a bunch of booster packs for the Pok\u00e9mon Trading Card Game: Sword &#038; Shield \u2013 Evolving Skies set. We opened the packs to see what we could pull. While we&#8217;ve seen the Legendary birds from Kanto&#8217;s Galarian forms appear in a recent expansion, I loved collecting the new versions of Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. As someone who loves the Eeveelutions, I loved the ones I pulled, but was disappointed I didn&#8217;t get any of the Gen 1 forms. My overall favorite card in this expansion is the Gyarados VMAX, which I wasn&#8217;t lucky enough to get, but I was thrilled to see some of the other full-art Pok\u00e9mon V and VMAX cards emerge from the booster packs I opened.<\/p>\n<p>You can check out the full gallery of my favorite cards I pulled from the new Evolving Skies expansion below.<\/p>\n<p><i>Click image thumbnails to view
