The Fairy and Poison type resync:

Though NFE Pokémon are to not be edited and altered. From this update on, due to the official game not showing a return for Fairy and Poison type Pokémon to be Fairy and Psychic in the TCG, I will be lightly editing future Fairy and Poison types to match Fairy and Poison respectively. The following Pokémon have been edited and will be added to the “altered cards” folder.

  • Fairy NFE Pokémon: Milcery, Swirlix, Tinkatin, Tinatuff, Togepi
  • Poison NFE Pokémon: Ekans, Golbat, Impidimp, Koffing, Mogrem, Paldean Wooper, Zubat

New Pokémon:
