The Pokemon Trading Card Game (TCG) community is buzzing with excitement following the release of The Triumphant Light expansion, which introduces 96 new cards and reshapes the game's meta. This expansion not only brings a new booster pack but also introduces the mythical Pokemon, Arceus, along with a groundbreaking battle mechanic known as Link Abilities.
The introduction of Arceus and Link Abilities has dramatically transformed gameplay. With Link Abilities, Pokemon can now execute combined effects when playing alongside Arceus or Arceus EX, adding a new layer of strategy and excitement to battles.

Undoubtedly, the star of Triumphant Light is Arceus EX, classified under the prestigious four-diamond rarity. Arceus's Fabled Lustre ability renders it immune to special conditions, while its Ultimate Force attack deals 70 damage plus additional damage for each benched Pokemon. Here's a closer look at Arceus EX's stats:
- Rarity: four-diamond, 2-star, 3-star, crown
- HP: 140
- ATK: 70
- ATK Energy: Three Colorless
- Retreat Cost: 2
- Weakness: Fighting
- Ability: Fabled Lustre
- Attack: Ultimate Force
Arceus EX also enhances the abilities of other Pokemon through its Link Abilities, which include Power Link, Resilience Link, Vigor Link, Speed Link, and Cunning Link. These abilities are pivotal for crafting powerful and dynamic deck strategies.
