A new news article has been posted!
To promote the release of the Sun & Moon Burning Shadows TCG expansion, the Pokémon Company International has announced that a Salazzle will be distributed to players of Pokémon Sun and Moon.

Sun & Moon—Burning Shadows expansion is out now!

To celebrate, Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon players can head into their local GAME store from 18 August to receive a battle-ready Salazzle for their Nintendo 3DS system.
London, UK—Friday, 4 August 2017—The third expansion in the latest Pokémon Trading Card Game series, Sun & Moon—Burning Shadows, is now available in stores across the UK. This expansion includes two new theme decks and over 140 cards, including brand-new Pokémon-GX and full-art Supporter cards.

What’s more, to celebrate Salazzle-GX appearing for the first time in the Pokémon Trading Card Game, Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon video game players can head into their local GAME store from 18 August to receive a battle-ready Salazzle for their Nintendo 3DS system, at no cost.

Salazzle evolve only from female Salandit, which are uncommon encounters in the Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon video games. The venomous Poison- and Fire-type Pokémon Salazzle has its signature Corrosion Ability, which enables this Pokémon to make even usually resistant Steel- and Poison-type Pokémon badly poisoned using its potent Toxic move.

Salazzle will be distributed with the following attributes:

LEVEL: 50
TYPE: Poison and Fire
ABILITY: Corrosion
MOVES: Fake Out, Toxic, Sludge Bomb and Flamethrower
HELD ITEM: Focus Sash


From 18 August, Salazzle will be distributed battle-ready, so players can jump right into online or local battles to test their skills.

To receive Salazzle, fans must own a system in the Nintendo 3DS family and a Pokémon Sun or Pokémon Moon game. Please ask staff in a GAME store for instructions on how to receive a special code to obtain Salazzle.*

Another treat for Trainers in celebration of Sun & Moon—Burning Shadows is an exclusive promo card featuring Stufful, available at Toys“R”Us as a gift with purchase from 4 August.
