The Pokemon Company has officially announced that "Pokemon Sun and Moon" Trading Card Game's (TCG) third expansion title-Burning Shadows is set on Aug. 4 release date. It will arrive with new add-ons and features that will bring the game's fun experience to a whole new level.
Here are the best features to expect:
140 New Cards

Six Full-Art Supporter Cards
The Burning Shadows expansion will also offer six full-art Supporter cards that feature "important human characters," most of which are probably from Team Skull, Gamespot reported. The Pokemon Company has yet to release a preview for the cards, so, it is not known at this point how these cards will shape up the kinds of decks players can create.
In more news about Pokemon, Nintendo has confirmed the development of "Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon" for 3DS. The new game serves as new version of Sun and Moon that will present an alternative plot.
These titles won't be launched on Nintendo Switch but The Pokemon Company already confirmed at E3 that a new Pokemon RPG is currently in the works for the Switch and will possibly arrive not more than a year. Rumor then has it that it could be the Pokemon game leaked in 2016 codenamed "Pokemon Stars".
Whether it's "Pokemon Stars" or not, it is great news to all Pokemon fans on Nintendo Switch that a new Pokemon game is coming their way soon. "Pokemon Sun and Moon" is available on Nintendo 3DS and previously received two expansions, with Burning Shadows being the third.
