The master set counts 75 Normal and 43 Holofoil. No card comes in more than one of them, so the master set is the same size as the full set.

Tag Bolt introduces TAG TEAM Pokémon-GX, oversized cards that place two Pokémon together in a shared illustration and attack strategy. Pikachu & Zekrom, Eevee & Snorlax, Celebi & Venusaur, and Gengar & Mimikyu demonstrate how different personalities and types can combine. These cards are exceptionally powerful but give up three Prize cards when Knocked Out, creating a new level of risk and reward. Alternate full-art versions use detailed scenes and characterful interactions, making the TAG TEAM cards immediate collector favourites.

Pikachu & Zekrom-GX became the defining competitive card, while Latias & Latios-GX gained lasting popularity for its special illustration. The set also includes single Pokémon-GX, Prism Stars, and full-art Trainers such as Erika’s Hospitality. Tag Bolt changes both the look and scale of the game: the strongest cards now tell a story about partnership rather than individual power. That concept, combined with expressive alternate artwork, established the direction for the final year of the Sun & Moon series and remains one of the era’s most recognizable innovations. The English *Sun & Moon—Team Up* closely follows this release but reorganises some cards, rarities, and numbering.
