Welcome to the first official newsletter for Kanto Post. Instead of regular news sent to your inbox, I’ll be sending out roundups of the latest information. And, well, what a huge day to do it on. Let’s start with the Pokémon TCG, shall we?
Pokémon TCG
Today—if I’m doing this right—is the day that Pokémon Delta Reign has been released. If you’ve been fortunate enough to get some stock, you may find my chase cards list below useful. Fingers crossed and praying to Arceus that you get the pulls you deserve!

However, you may find that a certain Ultra Rare version of Mega Rayquaza ex is missing. No, that’s not bad luck. Instead, it’s actually coming to a product next year as a promo. More details below!

Outside of Delta Reign, a financial expert has warned (see: good news for us) that Pokémon cards may drop in value by 80% if the market downturns. Let me hope, because I want that Giratina V card from Lost Origin, and I’d prefer to keep my kidney.

Finally, The Pokemon Company in Japan shared that the price of booster packs is going to increase from May 2027, with individual packs going from 200 yen to 230 yen. This is the second consecutive year to see an increase, meaning that prices have gone up around 28% in two years.

Cyberpunk TCG
On the same day as Delta Reign, Cyberpunk TCG’s first set is dropping, with Welcome to Night City welcoming us to, well, Night City. You can check out the chase cards below.

There’s also the fact that the next expansion, Edgerunners: Burn Bright, has also been announced with a release date of April 2027. While cards have yet to be revealed, some art for a new Adam Smasher has been shared, and it’s… smashing, dare I say?

Palworld TCG
Last week, Legends Awaken for Palworld was released. You can find the chase cards below, including my favourite Palworld card so far. And no, it’s not the all-gold card, I can promise you.

Other stories
Here, I’ll share other Pokémon and TCG-related stories I’ve spotted that I want to share with you!
- One More Catch, a friend (I mean, a rival) Pokémon site, is doing Monster Mashup Month for subscribers. Make sure to give the first one a read.
- The Delta Reign expansion is now available in TCG Live, if that's your vibe.
Pokémon card of the week
To kick off our first Pokémon card of the week segment, is there any better choice than Giratina V from Lost Origin? My favourite modern Pokémon card, and my favourite Pokémon, this stunning artwork by Shinji Kanda is a dark, brooding beauty, wrapped in a chase that—to this day—I sadly don’t own.
Kanto Korner (mini-edition)
This is the section where I go into the plans, what’s happened with Kanto Post, and, well, what’s going to happen.
Firstly, Kanto Korner is usually a quarterly thing. However, it’s exclusive to the newly updated Kanto Post subscriber tiers. If you’re hoping to support the website, you can get a variety of benefits for keeping the servers running. And to celebrate, we have 30% off the Mythical tier for a year using this link. Thank you!
Speaking of which, I’m adding some cool features—both free and premium—for Kanto Post. No spoilers just yet. Okay, well, you’ve twisted my arm, so just one: card lists. That’s all I’m going to say.
In the future, Kanto Korner will be limited to Mythical or higher subscribers, so make sure to support the website to get loads of cool benefits and get the latest news on what Kanto Post is up to.
