With 287 cards, CSV10C is the largest expansion ever published for the Simplified Chinese Pokémon Trading Card Game, and the first to put Team Rocket at the heart of the game in that market. Collectors will find the cards of the star Trainers of the Scarlet \u0026 Violet era (Lillie, Cynthia, N, Marnie, Ethan) alongside Giovanni's Pokémon, including the highly sought-after Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex, in a Chinese print run that is still rare in Europe. Every case listed here is brand new, factory sealed and authenticated by our team of experts before shipping: you are buying an investment-grade product, not a promise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe story of a record-breaking expansion: Team Rocket lands in China\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chasing Glory Together expansion is the Simplified Chinese adaptation of “Rocket-dan no Eikō” (The Glory of Team Rocket), the Japanese SV10 set released on 18 April 2025 and known in the West as Destined Rivals (30 May 2025). The Simplified Chinese Pokémon Trading Card Game has only existed since late 2022: The Pokémon Company publishes its expansions there on a separate schedule, with dedicated set codes (CSV for the Scarlet \u0026 Violet era) and print runs far more limited than in Japan or the United States. On 16 July 2026, Chasing Glory Together marked a turning point: rather than adapting a single Japanese set, The Pokémon Company compiled the best of three recent releases, The Glory of Team Rocket, Battle Partners (Journey Together in English) and Heat Wave Arena, bringing together 36 cards from Destined Rivals and 19 cards from Journey Together alongside brand-new cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe return of Team Rocket, absent from Pokémon cards since the “Team Rocket” expansion of 2000, created unprecedented global demand: in Japan and the United States alike, booster boxes sold out on release day. The Chinese version rides that wave while remaining under the radar in Europe, which makes it one of the Team Rocket print runs most closely watched by sealed-product investors today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the CSV10C expansion is built: formats, rarities and foil cards\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chasing Glory Together expansion has 222 numbered cards plus 65 secret rares, for a total of 287 cards: 6 Art Rares (AR), 33 Super Rares (SR), 18 Special Art Rares (SAR) and 8 Ultra Rares (UR). Two booster formats coexist: the standard 5-card booster, which guarantees 1 foil card, and the 20-card jumbo booster, which guarantees 6. A jumbo box contains 6 boosters of 20 cards, a slim box holds 15 boosters of 5 cards, and a factory-sealed case bundles 20 boxes of the same format. Unlike Japanese booster boxes, no SR is guaranteed per box, which is why full cases, which statistically even out the pulls, are the format favoured by collectors and box breakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree concrete benefits for your collection: \u003cstrong\u003ea limited print run\u003c\/strong\u003e, as Simplified Chinese prints are produced in far smaller volumes than the English versions; \u003cstrong\u003ea sealed value that keeps climbing\u003c\/strong\u003e, a full case remaining the most liquid format on the secondary market; and \u003cstrong\u003ea grading advantage\u003c\/strong\u003e, since Chinese print quality (centering, foil) has a reputation for consistency, making PSA 10 grades easier to achieve on SARs and URs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe iconic cards of the collection\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most sought-after cards in Chasing Glory Together are \u003cstrong\u003eTeam Rocket's Mewtwo ex\u003c\/strong\u003e, available in SR and SAR versions and the headline card of the expansion, together with the Trainer's Pokémon in special illustration: \u003cstrong\u003eLillie's Clefairy ex\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eCynthia's Garchomp ex\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eN's Zoroark ex\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eMarnie's Grimmsnarl ex\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eEthan's Ho-Oh ex\u003c\/strong\u003e. The card exclusive to the Chinese version is \u003cstrong\u003eBrock's Scouting SAR 276\/222\u003c\/strong\u003e, illustrated by Atsushi Furusawa: unavailable in the Japanese or English sets, it is the regional chase card that collectors worldwide are hunting for. On the product side, the \u003cstrong\u003eTeam Rocket's Grand Vision Gift Box\u003c\/strong\u003e includes 6 jumbo boosters, a \u003cstrong\u003eTeam Rocket's Mewtwo ex 354\/SV-P\u003c\/strong\u003e promo, a black attaché case bearing the R logo, a playmat, a deck box and 64 card sleeves. MTHOR Shop focuses its selection on the expansion's \u003cstrong\u003esealed cases\u003c\/strong\u003e, the format that best preserves value and lets you open or resell box by box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the cases, The Pokémon Company has rolled Chasing Glory Together out into highly sought-after tie-in products: \u003cstrong\u003ecoin boxes\u003c\/strong\u003e (3 boosters of 5 cards, a foil card and a coin featuring a Pokémon, in 5 different RR versions) and two \u003cstrong\u003eBattle Set Gift Box\u003c\/strong\u003e releases in the colours of Lillie and N (6 jumbo boosters, card sleeves, deck box, coin and damage counters). Every piece of packaging carries Team Rocket's red “R” on a black background, a visual identity that makes the Chinese displays instantly recognisable in a shop window or an unboxing video. On the secondary market, it is the Trainer SAR cards and Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex that drive the value of a case: collectors chasing a PSA 10 copy favour cards pulled from sealed boxes, whose centering and surfaces have never been handled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy buy your Pokémon Team Rocket case from MTHOR\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMTHOR Shop, the French authenticated resale store, specialises in selling \u003cstrong\u003eauthenticated\u003c\/strong\u003e products, from sneakers to collectibles.

The artwork, rarities (AR, SR, SAR, UR) and foil quality are on par with Japanese cards, but the Chinese version offers exclusive cards such as Brock's Scouting SAR 276\/222, and its expansions sometimes compile several Japanese releases into one, as is the case with Chasing Glory Together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much is a Chinese Team Rocket Pokémon card worth?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe value of a Chinese Pokémon card from the Chasing Glory Together expansion depends on its rarity and condition: the SAR and UR versions of Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex, Lillie's Clefairy ex or the exclusive Brock's Scouting reach prices comparable to the Japanese versions, while common cards hold only nominal value. For an investor, the sealed case remains the safest format: it retains its sealed value without exposure to the luck of the pulls, and can be resold box by box on international secondary markets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow can you verify the authenticity of a Chinese Pokémon case?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt MTHOR, every Simplified Chinese Pokémon case is inspected by our team of experts before shipping: consistency of the factory seal and shrink wrap, product codes, logos and holograms on the boxes, carton weight and lot provenance, with a UV lamp and microscope for the finest details.
