The Pokémon Company has taken a significant step to address the ongoing challenges fans face in acquiring the latest Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) sets. In a recent statement, the company acknowledged the difficulties and confirmed that reprints of popular sets are on the way, aiming to meet the high demand and improve product availability.
The launch of the latest set, "Destined Rivals," was marred by shortages, pre-order issues, and the impact of scalpers. This set, along with other recent releases like "Prismatic Evolutions" and the "Blooming Waters" box, have been highly sought after, making them difficult to obtain for many fans.

In their official statement on the Pokémon website, The Pokémon Company (TPC) recognized that many fans are "experiencing difficulties purchasing certain Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) products due to very high demand impacting availability." They expressed understanding of the disappointment this causes and assured fans that they are "actively working to print more of the impacted Pokémon TCG products as quickly as possible and at maximum capacity." The reprints are expected to be available at participating retailers soon.
Looking ahead, TPC plans to "maximize production" for future TCG expansions to ensure better availability at launch. They also committed to "continue to reprint impacted products" to replenish stock, including at the Pokémon Center.
In response to scalping issues, The Pokémon Company indirectly addressed the problem by emphasizing their commitment to a "smooth purchasing experience" at the Pokémon Center. They employ technology, such as a virtual queue during high traffic periods, to prioritize fans. The company stated, "We will continue to explore measures that help create the best possible experience for Pokémon Center customers," and thanked the community for their patience and support as they work to improve the situation.
With these assurances from The Pokémon Company, fans can hope for a more seamless experience in collecting and enjoying the Pokémon TCG as new sets are released.
