Pokémon Trading Card Game Battle Academy (2024)

Launch: June 21, 2024

Prepare for a Pokémon battle with the ready-to-play Pokémon Trading Card Game Battle Academy! The Battle Academy includes everything two players need to play, with guides to the decks so your first game is easy to follow.

You can choose Armarouge or Pikachu to lead your team in a heads-up battle against another Trainer. Then, switch up the decks to play Darkrai against Armarouge or Pikachu, and lead a different team of Pokémon into the arena! With a little strategy and a little luck, you can battle with the best!

Best of all, the Battle Academy is fully compatible with other Pokémon TCG products, so you can continue to expand your experience with more cards, more Pokémon, more strategies, and more fun!
