Each pack will have a special promo card of one of the Galar Starters that are illustrated by newcomer artists, Yuya Oka, DOM, GOSSAN, who recently joined the Pokémon card game during the Evolving Skies and Pokémon Brilliant Stars TCG expansion. The elite box will feature 10 Crown Zenith booster packs, and an etched Alternate Art Lucario VSTAR promo card.Similar to previous Elite Trainer's the Lucario-themed box will also be packaged with six standard damage-counter dice, and 1 competition-legal coin-flip die. Players who pick up the box will be able to combine the set's four mini cards, to create a giant Morpeko V that features the Electric/Dark-type being battled with its Trainer Marnie. Or choose to play it slow with Zamazenta’s Shield Star, a VSTAR Power Ability that causes your Pokémon to take 100 less damage from attacks during your opponent’s next turn.
