Oh boy, that Iono card will be very expensive as hell. Let’s hope that we get to have a decent amount of supply so we can have a great time unboxing as these cards will be in our ‘Paldea Evolved’ set. On the other hand, Tinkaton ex SAR and Squawkabilly SAR are looking so cute! I think this time Pokemon successfully made us spend our money just because of how good these cards are both in terms of playability and collectability.
