While we wait for the full reveal of Destined Rivals, early clues from Japan’s The Glory of Team Rocket and Heat Wave Arena are already pointing to the biggest hits—and yes, Team Rocket is stealing the spotlight again.
At the top of the list? Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex, in its stunning Special Illustration Rare form. This powerhouse pairing of one of the strongest Pokémon ever and the mastermind Giovanni is already legendary—and collectors are ready to pounce the moment it drops.
Also heating up the hype is Team Rocket’s Moltres ex. With jaw-dropping art and a competitive ability to match, this fiery bird is shaping up to be a true standout. Artist AKIRA EGAWA delivered an absolute stunner here, and it’s already the personal chase card for many fans.
