About Champion Road
What Champion Road is
Champion Road, sold as Enhanced Expansion Pack Champion Road, is the eighth subset of the Japanese Sun & Moon era, released in May 2018 as the second enhancement of the sixth main expansion, Forbidden Light. It has 66 cards in the numbered set plus 20 secret prints, 86 in total, and no Fairy type Pokémon. The subset is built from modernized reprints of cards first released in the Neo, e-Card, ADV and PCG eras, with Articuno GX 14, Electrode GX 22, Mr. Mime GX 25, Banette GX 31, Scizor GX 41 and Salamence GX 45 as its Pokémon-GX. Each GX returns as a full art from 67 to 72 and a rainbow print from 78 to 83, the Supporter full arts Underground Expedition 73, TV Reporter 74, Apricorn Maker 75, Bill's Maintenance 76 and Copycat 77 sit between them, and the gold Revitalizer 84, PokéNav 85 and Rainbow Energy 86 close the set. Its cards reached English in Celestial Storm.
