The Pokemon TCG Shrouded Fable expansion set came out on August 2, 2024, with almost the entire collection being immediately available for purchase. The only two exceptions to this rule were the Elite Trainer Box and the Booster Bundle.

The Shrouded Fable release saw issues with ETBs, meaning the Elite Trainer Box and the Pokemon Center Elite Trainer Box will be releasing on August 23 instead of August 2.

The Booster Bundle will be available on September 6, meaning it’ll be coming out just before the Stellar Crown and Paradise Dragona expansion set releases.

Shrouded Fable is packed to the brim with beautiful and powerful Pokemon cards. The woodblock-style Black Star Promos featured in the Illustration Collections are particularly stunning, but there are plenty of rare pieces for collectors to track down.

While the base card list features 64 Pokemon cards, there are further Secret Rares for collectors to pick up. Shrouded Fable features 35 Secret Rare cards, bringing the total card number up to 99.

It’s a small but powerful set – check out our full review here – with a handful of cards that could help to change the meta as we head into the World Championships this year.
