<\/p>\n<\/p>\nOn August 20, 2021, the first decks containing V-Union Pok\u00e9mon will be launched in Japan. These are special pair cards (4 pieces) which together make up a whole. Greninja V-Union, Mewtwo V-Union and Zacian V-Union are known so far. Each V-Union card can have several abilities and attacks. Logically, only one attack can be used per turn, but the abilities can all be activated (if possible). All V-Union Pok\u00e9mon can only be played if all four pieces are in your discard pile. A player can only play a V-Union Pok\u00e9mon with the same name once per turn. However, any number of V-Union Pok\u00e9mon with different names can be played. In battle, V-Union Pok\u00e9mon give the opponent 3 Prize cards. They are neither Basic nor Evolved Pok\u00e9mon. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
