Pokemon Triple Beat JP Japanese Booster Pack - Pokemon Scarlet & Violet - Trading Card Game (TCG)

Begin your journey through the Paldea region with the Pokémon Scarlet & Violet – Triplet Beat (SV1a) Japanese Booster Pack. Released in Japan on March 10, 2023, Triplet Beat is the first Enhanced Expansion Pack of the Scarlet & Violet era and showcases the three Paldea starter evolution lines—Meowscarada, Skeledirge, and Quaquaval—alongside a variety of early‑era Paldean Pokémon.

The set contains 103 cards, including Pokémon ex, Art Rares, Special Art Rares, and key Trainer and Energy cards that supported the launch of the new generation. Triplet Beat expands the themes introduced in Scarlet ex / Violet ex by highlighting characters, locations, and Pokémon from Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, including notable species such as Paldean Tauros, Oricorio, Magikarp, and more.

This expansion also continued the introduction of Illustration Rares and provided the first Special Energy cards of the Scarlet & Violet Series, giving both collectors and players strong incentive to open these packs.
