Prepare for a heavy-hitting showdown with GG End, the fifteenth Japanese subset and the first Strength Expansion specifically designed to enhance the Double Blaze era. Released in April 2019, this set shifts the spotlight toward the raw power of Fighting and Dragon-type Pokémon, introducing some of the most aggressive TAG TEAM pairings to enter the Sun & Moon series.
Consisting of 54 cards (plus numerous Secret Rares), GG End is tailored for trainers who prefer high-pressure tactics and deck-thinning strategies. The expansion is famous for its "ground-and-claws" aesthetic, featuring legendary Earth-shakers and lightning-fast predators that dominated the competitive landscape upon their debut.
