BREAKthrough
About BREAKthrough
BREAKthrough presents a broad, Pokémon-forward collection: 165 cards total, with 142 Pokémon cards supported by 21 Trainers and 2 Energy. Its rarity spread is anchored by Commons and Uncommons, then steps through Rares and holo treatments into Ultra, BREAK, and a small Secret tier. Across the set, compositions tend to stay balanced and focused, while a steady current of dynamic framing keeps the pages moving.
The visual profile is dominated by cartoonish, playful, and colorful illustration, with vibrant palettes and frequent contrast shaping quick readability. Energetic and lighthearted moods appear most often, occasionally sharpened by more intense moments in action-oriented scenes. Among the set’s visual highlights, M Glalie-EX (xy8-156) and M Houndoom-EX (xy8-154) stand out for their heightened impact within this bright, graphic environment. Much of the set’s look is carried by 5ban Graphics, with additional variety from Kouki Saitou, Toyste Beach, and Mitsuhiro Arita.

Kouki Saitou and Toyste Beach add additional breadth within the same bright, character-forward sensibility, while Mitsuhiro Arita brings a complementary illustrative touch that helps widen the set’s texture without breaking its overall cohesion.
