Fans of the Pokemon TCG will no doubt be eagerly anticipating the arrival of Crown Zenith: Shiny Zacian and Shiny Zamazenta. These new sets are guaranteed to be a hit with collectors and players alike as it includes some of the most sought-after shiny variants of two of the most popular legendary Pokemon.

Let's explore the history and roles of the legendaries featured in The Pokemon in Crown Zenith expansion packs as they appeared in Pokemon: Sword & Shield



The two featured Pokemon in this set are Shiny Zacian and Shiny Zamazenta, so let's start there. Both of these legendary Pokemon had their origins in the Pokemon Sword and Shield games, where their distinctive appearances and impressive stats rapidly made them fan favorites.

When it comes to types, the games distinguish between Zacian, a Fairy/Steel Pokemon, and Zamazenta, a Fighting/Steel Pokemon. Behemoth Blade is a devastating physical strike that causes tremendous damage and is exclusive to Zacian, whereas Behemoth Bash is exclusive to Zamazenta and is just as deadly but also paralyzes the opponent.

Those that are polished, however, raise questions. Shiny Zacian and Shiny Zamazenta cards, with their unique and extremely valuable color schemes, are available for collection in Crown Zenith. There's no doubt that these cards will be sought after by collectors and become mainstays in many players' decks.


Of course, there are also many additional Pokemon to catch and trade in Crown Zenith. There are more than 100 cards in the collection, and they include some powerful V and VMAX cards that will help you win every battle. Among the set's most notable Pokemon are:

The Galarian version of Moltres, Moltres V, is a Dark/Flying type Pokemon with the ability to inflict extra damage on weakened foes. These regional variants were first seen in Pokemon Sword & Shield's DLC, the Crown Tundra.



Among Normal-type Pokemon, Blissey VMAX stands out for its ridiculously high HP. In addition, it has a strong strike that can restore health to itself and any other Pokemon on your bench.

Shadow Rider Calyrex VMAX is a Psychic/Grass-type Pokemon that can disrupt your opponent's strategy by preventing them from activating their Pokemon's abilities.


Crown Zenith is shaping up to be one of the most intriguing Pokemon TCG sets of recent memory, and that goes for collectors as well as players. This set is sure to be a favorite with fans of all ages thanks to the inclusion of rare shiny versions of Zacian and Zamazenta, as well as a broad array of other formidable Pokemon.
