The official Japanese Pokémon Card Game website has announced a new type of V card called
V-UNION which takes 4 different V-UNION cards to create a powerful Pokémon card.
V-UNION
A Pokémon V-UNION is a powerful Pokémon V, played in sets of four! It is neither a Basic Pokémon nor an Evolved Pokémon and you cannot play it from your hand, but you can combine four different Pokémon V-UNION cards with the same name from your discard and play them as one Pokémon on the Bench!
A Pokémon V-UNION with the same name can only be played once during a match, but a Pokémon V-UNION with a different name can be played even if another Pokémon V-UNION is already on the field.
Pokémon V-UNIONs have high HP and four powerful Moves, and when they get knocked out, the opponent gets three prize cards.
Special Card Set Mewtwo V-UNION, Special Card Set Greninja V-UNION, and Special Card Set Zacian V-UNION each contain one promo card set, one card for each of the four types of V-UNION.
Mewtwo V-UNION
Mewtwo V-UNION has the Photon Barrier ability, which makes it immune to all effects of attacks used by your opponent's Pokémon. With Final Psyburn, a move that deals 300 damage, and Psyplosion, a move that allows you to put 16 damage counters on your opponent's Pokémon any way you want, you can effectively knock out your opponent's Pokémon. It can also accelerate its Energy collection with the Union Gain move and recover 200 HP with the Super Recovery move.
The Special Card Set Mewtwo V-UNION includes four different Mewtwo V-UNION cards, which are all required to put Mewtwo V-UNION (Pokémon) on the Bench.
Greninja V-UNION
Greninja V-UNION has a move called Waterspout Shuriken that deals 100 damage to all of your opponent's Bench Pokémon, and a move called Waterfall Bind that deals 180 damage and makes your opponent unable to escape, allowing you to fight while interfering with your opponent's strategy!
Union Gain, is a move that accelerates Energy collection, and Aqua Edge, a move that deals 130 damage with a single Water Energy, are also useful moves depending on the situation.
It also has three Abilities. It can see its opponent's hand with its Probing Ability, it is immune to the effects of Items that its opponent uses from its hand with its Ninja Body Ability, and it cannot become Poisoned with its Antidote Jutsu Ability.
The Special Card Set Greninja V-UNION includes four different Greninja V-UNION cards, which are all required to put Greninja V-UNION (Pokémon) on the Bench.
Zacian V-UNION
Zacian V-UNION has a very powerful move, Master Blade, which can deal 340 damage in exchange for discarding three attached Energy cards! Zacian V-UNION also has the Steel Slash move, which deals 200 damage with 3 Energy, and the Royal Blade Dance move, which deals 150 damage and reduces the damage of its opponent's next move by -150, allowing it to use these powerful moves in different ways depending on the situation. It can also accelerate its Energy collection with it Union Gain move.
The Special Card Set Zacian V-UNION includes four different Zacian V-UNION cards, which are required to put Zacian V-UNION (Pokémon) on the Bench.
Professor Burnet
