Stunning artwork, seriously powerful Terastalized Pokémon—it’s got everything. While Western fans have to wait a bit longer (many will likely appear in the Surging Sparks set coming in November), we’re taking a sneak peek at the ten absolute best cards that'll have both collectors and competitive players going wild!
Top 10 Supercharged Breaker Cards: A Collector's & Competitor's Dream!
10. Terapagos: Crystal Powerhouse
Terapagos is legendary. The artwork alone (by GIDORA) is mesmerizing—that glittery crystal aesthetic screams Area Zero. It's not just a pretty face! Its Prism Charge attack lets you grab three Energy cards and attach them—great for setting up your big hitters. Then, unleash Hard Tackle (requires three Energy of any type) for a solid 100 damage!
9. Jasmine Secret Rare: The Steel-Type Sentinel
This Secret Rare is breathtaking! Jasmine’s (from Generation II!) calming art (by Mori Yuu) perfectly matches her personality, yet showcases just how ready this trainer actually is for some epic battles. But it's so much more than a pretty picture! Jasmine's support ability protects all your Pokémon from 30 less damage—a massive advantage when the battle's intense. This makes preparing multiple different strategies very possible.
8. Kecleon Secret Rare: Master of Disguise
The secret rare Kecleon (by Mori Yuu), surrounded by gorgeous foliage, perfectly captures that chameleonic ability to camouflage and it’s truly something. While Tongue Whip is a pretty weak attack, the Hidden Expertise ability is pure genius. Flip a coin when Kecleon's attacked: heads, no damage! A solid move for a versatile deck build, relying on unexpected turns for effective gameplay. Many new possibilities open up using Kecleon.
7. Scramble Switch: The Ultimate ACE SPEC Card
Scramble Switch is an ACE SPEC card returning. This is seriously insane, and totally needed. You switch active Pokémon, then move ALL the Energy to the new one! Switch, Experience Share, and other options—all combined in a single card, generating multiple opportunities that were impossible to fully use before the creation of this new card. You will need to play smartly here, given that it is only a one-time use. Consider your strategies before using this ability. Those higher-level Pokemon could utilize this tremendously effectively.
6. Mesprit Secret Rare: The Lake Guardian's Power
Mesprit's secret rare card is simply mesmerizing; stunning lake guardian artwork done by HYOGONOSUKE; it really encapsulates the mysticism of these guardian Pokemon! Its Heart Satisfy attack lets you give two energy to a Pokémon. But use God Burst (which involves Uxie and Azelf being in play) for that truly impressive 160 damage! Another good support and attacker card with a high damage potential.
5. Ceruledge Secret Rare: Blazing Infernal Power
Ceruledge is insane. It's got both Blaze Curse (removes special energy from opponent Pokémon, neutralizing many opponents!), and Black Flame Slash (160 damage but it skips your next turn) ! It also boasts seriously impressive art; its incredible image made by illustrator Rond. The intensity and darkness truly show how terrifyingly powerful this Pokemon truly is.
4. Pikachu ex Secret Rare: The Tenacious Electric Mouse
Pikachu ex has an amazing Terastal boost; it's amazing! This new Pikachu is completely invulnerable to damage while it's on the bench, making it a super survivor! Its Tenacious Heart ability (mimicking that friendship mechanic from those newer games); and brings itself back to full health when knocked out with one hit; the added support generates additional chances to attack and creates more flexibility in making and developing new strategies. Unleash that awesome Topaz Bolt for 300 damage (if you played it smartly) and the enemy Pokemon will regret underestimating this one!
3. Palossand ex: The Sand-Trapping Terror
Palossand ex looks harmless but is terrifying. Its Sand Tomb does 160 damage, preventing retreat! And Baryte Jail damages your opponent’s bench Pokémon until they hit 100 health! Another card designed specifically for neutralizing enemy units which could greatly hamper other playstyles. Be sure to check the HP for any Pokemon you encounter and plan accordingly.
2. Hydreigon ex Secret Rare: The Dragon-Type Dominator
Hydreigon ex (by artist AKIRA EGAWA) is ridiculously powerful and that awesome art showcases exactly how powerful and dangerous this thing truly is. Crash Heads (200 damage) plus discarding three of the opponent's cards?! Oh, and its Obsidian attack (130 damage!) can hit the opponent’s active AND two benched Pokémon? The level design and card mechanics here are remarkably high and extremely effective in creating many interesting new opportunities!
1. Milotic ex Secret Rare: Graceful Powerhouse
Milotic ex is beautiful and insanely strong. Its Sparkling Scales ability means it's completely safe from enemy Tera Pokémon; showcasing a uniquely powerful approach to making certain characters incredibly resilient. That awesome artwork (by Kuroimori) is art worthy of admiration! Unleash Hypno Splash (160 damage plus Sleep!) and your enemy is completely shut down! Those high health Pokemon would find this combination quite effective!
Conclusion: Supercharged Breaker: It's Time to Unleash the Power
Supercharged Breaker has totally raised the bar, people. These cards demonstrate a unique blend of power, clever mechanics and superb artistry; these aspects make the creation and selection of each card highly effective, emphasizing quality above all other priorities! It is a must for every trainer.
