New Honedge, Doublade, and Aegislash Pokémon TCG cards from Nihil Zero revealed
Today's video on the Pokémon Trading Card Game's official Japanese YouTube channel has unveiled new Honedge, Doublade, and Aegislash cards, which will be released in the upcoming Nihil Zero expansion that hits store shelves in Japan later this month on January 23rd. Cards from his set will release internationally in the Mega Evolution—Perfect Order expansion on March 27th.
Nihil Zero is the first booster set to be fully based on the video game Pokémon Legends: Z-A (although there have been cards based on Pokémon and characters from the video game in products released prior). The central Pokémon is Mega Zygarde ex, appearing as a Mega Evolution Pokémon ex card. Various other Pokémon and characters from Pokémon Legends: Z-A also appear as cards. The set's Japanese name, Munikisu Zero (ムニキスゼロ), references the Japanese name of Mega Zygarde's signature move, Nihil Light (Japanese: 無に帰す光 Munikisu Hikari). The name also forms the initialism "MZ", which alludes to two important Pokémon Legends: Z-A elements, namely Team MZ and Mega Zygarde.
