Battle Region is a Japanese Pokémon TCG expansion from the Sword & Shield era. Released in Japan in 2022 with the set code S9a, the expansion draws strong inspiration from the Hisui region featured in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. The set introduced several Hisuian Pokémon to the Japanese Pokémon TCG and combines them with Pokémon V, Pokémon VSTAR, Trainer cards and distinctive collectible artwork.
The Battle Region card list features Pokémon such as Hisuian Decidueye V, Hisuian Decidueye VSTAR, Hisuian Typhlosion V, Hisuian Typhlosion VSTAR, Hisuian Samurott V and Hisuian Samurott VSTAR. These regional forms of the three starter Evolutions play an important role within the expansion and are accompanied by other Pokémon connected to Hisui as well as familiar Pokémon from previous generations.
Character Rare cards are an important part of Battle Region and feature Pokémon together with Trainers in detailed illustrated scenes. These cards place greater emphasis on the relationship between Pokémon and characters, creating artwork that differs considerably from conventional card designs. Selected Pokémon V also appear as Character Super Rare cards, adding further illustration-focused versions to the set.
Collectors can find several rarity levels throughout the Japanese Battle Region card list. Alongside regular Pokémon, Pokémon V and Pokémon VSTAR, the expansion contains Character Rare, Character Super Rare, Super Rare and additional higher-rarity cards. The set also features Radiant Pokémon, recognizable by their special card treatment and Shiny Pokémon appearance.
