Japan · 2021
This page covers all 1,193 Japanese cards of 2021, in eleven products on eight release days. The English edition of the same year is a separate page with its own 1,182 cards.
Eleven products, 1,193 cards, and the year the schedule starts printing in pairs.
2021 is the year the calendar goes symmetric. Three times the release day carries two packs at once: S5I and S5R in January, S6H and S6K in April, S7D and S7R in July. Each pair splits one idea down the middle — Single Strike against Rapid Strike, Silver against Jet-Black, sky against sky — and each is sold as two products rather than one.
Underneath that schedule sits a second line of print. 66 of the year’s 1,193 cards are character cards first printed in December’s S8b VMAX Climax, a compilation whose numbered half is almost entirely reprints of S1 to S8. That is why 2021 has more cards than any year before it while introducing fewer new ones.
Every card below is the Japanese printing, with its Japanese scan, its Japanese name, and an English reading of the type, HP, stage, retreat cost, attacks, Ability and illustrator. Numbers are read off the card, not estimated.
Cards are grouped by the product they were sold in, in release order, and numbered as the card is numbered. Secret cards sit at the end of their product, in the order the set prints them.
This page documents 1,193 main-series cards across eleven products on eight release dates in 2021. It covers cards printed in Japan only; printings for other editions are tracked separately.

Also released this year: English edition.
Star Birth opens 2022 in Japan. 131 of this year’s cards find their English printing in the 2022 sets — swsh9 through swsh12 and the three Trainer Galleries — because S8b reprinted them a year before English caught up.
Brilliant Stars is where the VMAX Climax character cards surface in English, with a Trainer Gallery attached to the set for the first time.
What 2021 settles is that a reprint can be a product. S8b is not a new expansion; it is 285 cards of the year’s own back catalogue, sold at 550 yen a pack with a guaranteed holo Energy inside. The set that ends the year is the year looking at itself.
Release dates and product identities are connected to the Japanese edition release register by set code. Sources are printed per product so a reader can check the claim without trusting this page alone. Unmatched products say so instead of borrowing another edition’s citation.
S5I verified_secondaryS5R verified_secondaryS5a verified_secondaryS6H verified_secondaryS6K verified_secondaryS6a verified_secondaryS7D verified_secondaryS7R verified_secondaryS8 verified_secondaryS8a verified_secondaryS8b verified_secondaryAll 1,193 cards of the eleven Japanese releases are listed, and none of them is rounded. Every card carries its own row, including the 101 secret cards of S8b.
The Japanese printing is the first-hand source here. Type, HP, retreat cost, attacks and Ability text are read off the Japanese card page; the English line beside each field is a translation of what is printed, not a guess at what the English card would say.
Where a card also exists in English, the English printing supplies the wording. 952 cards find their English twin later in 2021 or in 2022, 157 were printed in English first, and 41 have no English printing at all.
34 cards carry no rarity in the source, all of them in S8b. That set prints no rarity symbol on those cards, so the field stays empty rather than being borrowed from a same-name card in another pack — that shortcut turns a plain reprint into a full art.
The 12 V-UNION cards are counted as cards, not as Pokémon. Four physical cards make one 300 to 310 HP Pokémon, and each is listed separately because each is collected separately.
Two gaps are declared rather than filled. Professor Burnet (S8b 265) has no rules text in the source, and the three Pikachu V-UNION pieces after the first have no attack list in the source either. Both are left empty on the card.
119 artists signed 1,193 cards — more than any previous year — and 324 of the cards sit above Rare. The highest HP printed all year is 340.
Eleven products, 1,193 cards, 201 Pokémon V from 67 names and 109 VMAX from 36 names, and a year that ends by reprinting itself.
