This article discusses an evolving story. Stay tuned for updates as we continue to gather more details. Enthusiasts of the Pokémon Trading Card Game now have an additional incentive to visit 7-Eleven, thanks to an exclusive promotion launched in collaboration with the convenience store chain. While trading card packs are widely accessible at most retailers, special collaborations occur with the release of new packs. Fans in Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines should consider obtaining a booster pack for the Stellar Crown set, as 7-Eleven is debuting its first-ever English promo.
According to a leak from Pokebeach, those who purchase a booster pack from 7-Eleven will receive an English Lapras card, marked with the 7-Eleven logo. This promotion is anticipated to kick off on September 13, aligning with the international release of the Stellar Crown set.
The Stellar Crown set is slated for release on September 13, featuring four distinct foil cards. Players may discover a foil Drifloon, Bouffalant, Ledian, or Crabominable in the Build and Battle Box, complementing their store promo exclusives.
More English Pokémon Promo Cards Are Being Released In Southeast Asia
Lapras Isn’t the Only Pokémon Receiving a Store Promo for Stellar Crown
Lapras is one of three Pokémon to be part of a store promotion accompanying the launch of the latest set. Archaludon is collaborating with EB Games and GameStop, while Raging Bolt will be available to customers at Best Buy. Players need to make qualifying purchases of $15 or more on Pokémon Trading Card items to obtain these exclusive promo cards.
New Stellar Pokémon Cards May Not Be So Game-Changing, After All
This isn’t the first English-exclusive promotion that Southeast Asian retailers have secured for new Pokémon card packs. During the Regional Championships in Singapore, the Philippines, and Malaysia, the top four players in each division were awarded a stamped English Chien-Pao ex card, making them extremely rare. The top 8 players also received stamped English Ultra Ball cards embedded in a trophy, while participants were given a stamped English Ultra Ball card as a participation promo.
Although the English stamped Lapras will only be available to customers in Southeast Asia, it is likely to become a coveted item among serious collectors. Meanwhile, the promotions in the U.S. will offer players opportunities to acquire other exclusive cards following the set’s release. Several new collections for the Pokémon Trading Card Game are set to launch before the year ends, each featuring exclusive and rare cards to collect.
