PokePatch Pokemon Legends Arceus brilliant stars garchomp error errata

The newest Pokemon TCG set, Brilliant Stars, comes out this month, February 25th. This new set isn’t only a nod to the release of the new Switch game, Pokemon Legends Arceus, but it also introduces the latest type of card called VStar cards. Nevertheless, this is an expansion that fans are hyped about getting their hands on. Collectors and TCG players alike should know about this errata that was announced. Many of you know we like to keep up to date on card errors from each set and there’s already news of an error in the Brilliant Stars set.

Brilliant Stars Errata Announced

An announcement from Pokemon.com states that there was an error in production that printed the wrong text for the Sonic Slip ability. This type of error is called an errata. This is usually when the error effects TCG gameplay and needs to be fixed or corrected. Pokemon.com has announced the corrected text for the ability so players should play as if the error didn’t exist. Future prints of the set will likely have the corrected text on the cards, so this will be the first error card for collectors to go for in this set once it comes out.

This image is the error card but the corrected text will read as follows.

When you play this Pokémon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon during your turn, you may prevent all damage from and effects of attacks from your opponent’s Pokémon done to this Pokémon until the end of your opponent’s next turn.
