![]() ![]() ![]() We've mostly seen boxes or tins like this offer the standard, newer Sword & Shield packs with a Sun & Moon base set pack. This is among the better offerings in mixed tins and boxes so far in 2021. While I received Celestial Storm, other collectors received Sun & Moon – Guardians Rising quite a bit. In both the Tyranitar V Striker Tin and the Empoleon V Striker Tin, I received the following packs:Īs mentioned in the Tyranitar opening, other openings have shown that the Sword & Shield era packs always remain the same, with the Sun & Moon era pack being a wild card. While I think it's still worth collecting, this one ended up with the same issue as the Single Strike and Rapid Strike Urshifu V boxes earlier this year. The only difference is that Empoleon is striking with a different arm (wing? flipper?) and the art is a bit sharper, removing the hazy blur effect of the Battle Styles V. Unfortunately, Empoleon's pose is not different enough, and the promo ends up looking so, so much like the Battle Styles card. We essentially see the Pokémon in a different pose. Both this and the Tyranitar card in the other tin are very similar to the Tyranitar V and Empoleon V from Battle Styles. The promo is the Empoleon V, which is SWSH108 from the current, ongoing Sword & Shield Black Star Promos set.
