There are a few beautiful cards to look out for in Stellar Crown packs. These are most likely the “chase cards” of the set, and will probably be the most valuable cards for collectors.
There are also 3 brand new Ace Specc cards to keep an eye out for when opening your packs!
Sparkling Crystal
From Stellar Miracle
Attacks used by the Tera Pokémon this card is attached to cost 1 Energy less of any type.
Grand Tree
From Stellar Miracle
Once during each player’s turn, that player may search their deck for a Stage 1 Pokémon that evolves from 1 of their Basic Pokémon in play and put it onto that Pokémon to evolve it. If that Pokémon is now a Stage 1 Pokémon, they may search their deck for a Stage 2 Pokémon that evolves from that Pokémon and put it onto that Pokémon to evolve it. Then, that player shuffles their deck. (You can’t use this effect during your first turn or on a Basic Pokémon that was put into play this turn.)
Deluxe Bomb
From Stellar Miracle
If the Pokémon this card is attached to is in the Active Spot and is damaged by an attack from your opponent’s Pokémon (even if this Pokémon is Knocked Out), put 12 damage counters on the Attacking Pokémon. Then, discard this card.
Here is a list of all the cards we think you should be putting in your collection for deck-building now and in the future:
