Featured Cards and Set Highlights
The headline chase card for this set is Bloodmoon Ursaluna, the imposing Legendary Pokémon tied to the Kitakami storyline.

- ex cards featuring Pokémon native to or associated with Kitakami
- AR (Art Rare) cards showcasing full-bleed illustrative artwork
- SAR (Special Art Rare) cards with the highly detailed character-focused art style collectors prize
- A deep common and uncommon pool that reflects the Kitakami regional Pokédex
The Crimson Haze Bloodmoon Ursaluna booster box association is no accident.
