The Pok\u00e9mon Trading Card Game took a couple of months off (the last expansion<\/a> hit in early November), but February signals the release of the first new set of 2019. Team Up not only adds various monster and trainer cards to the ever-growing catalog, but it introduces the new Tag Team Pok\u00e9mon-GX mechanic (you can read more about this new mechanic here<\/a>). This new style of card puts two popular Pocket Monsters on one ultra-powerful card for a high-risk\/high-reward scenario.<\/p>\n

The new expansion introduces more than 180 new cards, including 6 Tag Team pairings. The Pok\u00e9mon Company sent us a ton of booster packs, both themed decks (Relentless Flame starring Charizard and Torrential Cannon starring Blastoise), and the Towering Splash GX box featuring a special Magikarp & Wailord GX Tag Team card.<\/p>\n

The inaugural Tag Team pairings are as follows:<\/p>\n
