Pokémon Animated Teaser Trailer Launches With New Trading Card Game Expansion

The Mythical Steam Pokémon Volcanion makes a triumphant debut today, in the very first look at the newest Pokémon animated movie, Pokémon the Movie: Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel, which debuts later this year in some North American, including the U.S., and European markets. Volcanion also makes its Pokémon Trading Card Game debut in the newest TCG expansion, Pokémon TCG: XY—Steam Siege.

Volcanion plays a significant role in Pokémon the Movie: Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel, where Ash meets the Mythical Pokémon Volcanion when it crashes down from the sky, creating a cloud of dust —and a mysterious force binds the two of them together! Volcanion despises humans and tries to get away, but it’s forced to drag Ash along as it continues its rescue mission.

They arrive in a city of cogs and gears, where a corrupt minister has stolen the ultimate invention: the Artificial Pokémon Magearna, created 500 years ago. He plans to use its mysterious power to take control of this mechanical kingdom! Can Ash and Volcanion work together to rescue Magearna? One of the greatest battles in Pokémon history is about to unfold!

Launching today at major retailers across the country, Pokémon TCG: XY—Steam Siege features Shiny Mega Gardevoir-EX and a host of greedy forces laying siege to the mighty Gear Palace, and the Mythical Steam Pokémon Volcanion must wield the dual powers of fire and water to stop them. The brand-new expansion introduced more than 115 new cards to collect and play, including Pokémon with the powerful BREAK Evolution mechanic like the new Xerneas BREAK and Yveltal BREAK, as well as Yanmega BREAK, Talonflame BREAK, Pyroar BREAK, Clawitzer BREAK, and Hydreigon BREAK.
