A Sword & Shield set featuring Lugia V SAR and Serena SR with storm-themed artwork.

Product Details

Paradigm Trigger (Japanese: パラダイムトリガー, set code S12) was released in Japan on October 21 2022, serving as the final main expansion of the Sword & Shield Era.
Headlined by Lugia VSTAR, the set reintroduces several classic Legendaries in dynamic modern artwork and continues the Lost Zone mechanic introduced earlier that year.

Each booster box contains 30 packs with 5 cards per pack, featuring a balance of competitive VSTAR cards, collectible Alternate Arts, and full-art Supporters.
Top chase cards include Lugia V (SAR #186/098), Regidrago V (SAR #184/098), and Serena (SR #184/098) — cards celebrated for their premium artwork and enduring collector value.

As the closing chapter of the Sword & Shield Era, Paradigm Trigger bridges into the next generation of design seen in VSTAR Universe, making it an essential addition for collectors seeking both nostalgia and high-impact chase cards.
