The Prismatic Evolutions set is one of the most wanted expansions in the Pokémon TCG. Given the enormous demand and the rarity of the cards, rumours are starting to circulate about a reprint of the set in 2025. As a collector you will want to know what to expect from that possible reprint. Is it time to pre-order? Let us go through everything we know so far.
What is Prismatic Evolutions?
Prismatic Evolutions was originally a set that formed part of the Scarlet & Violet series and came out in 2025. It held 180 cards, among them iconic Pokémon such as Eevee and its evolutions, plus a number of Illustration Rare and Special Illustration Rare cards that made the set so special. The card design was praised for its detailed, artistic finish, which made the set appealing to collectors and players alike.
Why is a reprint on the table?
After the original release, prices of the Prismatic Evolutions cards rose quickly. Cards such as Eevee, Vaporeon and Umbreon saw their value shoot up, especially the Illustration Rares and Hyper Rares. That raised the question of whether the set might be released again, given the enormous popularity and the limited availability.
There are now rumours that a reprint of Prismatic Evolutions is planned for May 2025. The set could become available again, both for collectors who missed the first release and for new players who want to get hold of the cards.
What can we expect from the 2025 reprint?
There is no official confirmation from The Pokémon Company yet, but the rumours about a Prismatic Evolutions reprint keep getting stronger. The set could come out in May 2025, with pre-order events ahead of the official release. Word is that the reprint might even contain new cards or alternative designs.
As with any reprint, we can also count on the cards being more widely available. That means cards that were originally hard to get hold of could become reachable for more collectors. It could take the pressure off prices, which is particularly interesting for anyone who wants to add the set to their collection without paying the sky-high prices on the secondary market.
The chance of a God Pack
One of the reasons Prismatic Evolutions is such a popular set is the chance of pulling a God Pack. What exactly is that? A God Pack is a pack in which you find nothing but rare cards. That means a pack full of Illustration Rare, Special Illustration Rare or even Hyper Rare cards. The odds of getting a God Pack are extremely small, but it has turned the set into a dream for collectors chasing the ultimate Pokémon experience.
With the 2025 reprint we could well run into more God Packs, since more packs will probably become available for collectors to open.
What makes Prismatic Evolutions so wanted?
The appeal of Prismatic Evolutions lies in the beautiful Illustration Rare and Special Illustration Rare cards it holds. Eevee and its evolutions are of course a big selling point, but the set also offers plenty of valuable cards for players looking for strong additions to their decks. The rarity of the cards keeps the set interesting for collectors and players alike.
