Two weeks before release, Aura Seeker is almost fully revealed. The known cards from the new Japanese set are now 49, and the most anticipated one is here: the first secret rare is Crasher Wake, drawn by Tetsuo Hara, the manga artist who co-created Fist of the North Star.
On October 25, when we wrote about the Aura Seeker release date, 21 cards were known. In three weeks another 28 arrived: Floatzel ex, both Urshifu with Kubfu, Machamp, Ninetales, Kecleon, Meowth and Persian. Here is everything revealed so far.
In short. Aura Seeker releases in Japan on November 27, 2026, with 5-card packs at 200 yen and 78 cards in the main set plus the secret rares. 49 cards have been revealed. The first secret rare is number 113, the Crasher Wake Supporter drawn by Tetsuo Hara, who had already illustrated Palafin ex. There are five ex: the three Mega Z ex (Lucario, Garchomp and Absol), Floatzel ex and Sigilyph ex. In English the cards will arrive in the Flowing Fists set on February 5, 2027.
Tetsuo Hara's secret rare
The card everyone is talking about is 113/078: the Crasher Wake Supporter, the Pastoria City Gym Leader, as a Special Art Rare. It was drawn by Tetsuo Hara, co-creator of Fist of the North Star, one of the best-selling manga of all time. The provisional English name of the card is Crasher Wake's Passion.
It is not Hara's first Pokémon card. In 2024 he drew Palafin ex, the Hero Form Palafin throwing Kenshiro's hundred punches, released in the West in Prismatic Evolutions: it is Palafin ex 151/131, one of the most wanted cards of the set. Two cards, two Water Pokémon, the same 1980s manga style.
As a game card, Crasher Wake is simple: choose one of your Water Pokémon and shuffle it and all attached cards into your deck. Its real weight is in the cards that ask for it.
Floatzel ex and the Crasher Wake deck
Around Crasher Wake there is a small Water deck ready to go, revealed on November 6.
- Floatzel ex (Water, 260 HP) with Hustle Screw does 40 damage, plus 100 for each Crasher Wake card you reveal from your hand. With three copies in hand that is 340 damage. Its second attack, Waterfall, does 150.
- Quagsire (Water, 130 HP) does 20 damage, which becomes 140 if you reveal a Crasher Wake from your hand.
- Buizel (Water, 70 HP) searches your deck for a Supporter for a single Energy: the way to find Crasher Wake.
The Mega Z ex
The three Mega Z Evolutions remain the heart of the set: Mega Lucario Z ex (Metal, 330 HP), Mega Garchomp Z ex (Dragon, 360 HP) and Mega Absol Z ex (Psychic, 270 HP). We covered them attack by attack in the release date article. When one of them is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 3 Prize cards.
The fighters: Machamp and Guts Fight
Aura Seeker has a clear Fighting theme: many Pokémon share the Guts Fight attack, which hits hard but also does 20 damage to the attacker.
- Machamp (Fighting, 180 HP) does 250 damage with Guts Fight, and with its Trained Arms Ability its attacks ignore Resistance and any effects on your opponent's Active Pokémon.
- Hawlucha (Fighting, 80 HP) with its Overflowing Cheer Ability makes Guts Fight cost one Energy less for all your Pokémon.
- Medicham (Psychic, 120 HP) puts 3 damage counters on your opponent's Pokémon in any way you like, or uses Guts Fight for 140 damage.
Kubfu and the two Urshifu
Kubfu was the only Pokémon with just one card in the whole game: in the Pokémon V era its Urshifu were Basic Pokémon, so it wasn't needed. Aura Seeker gives it its second card, and for the first time it actually evolves.
- Single Strike Urshifu (140 HP) with Wicked Blow does 120 damage, which becomes 260 if you discard a Darkness Energy.
- Rapid Strike Urshifu (140 HP) with Torrential Strike does 120 damage, and if you discard a Water Energy it also does 40 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon.
Ninetales, Kecleon, Meowth and Persian
The daily reveals of the last few days also brought smaller cards with curious effects.
- Ninetales (Fire, 110 HP, number 013) has the Deception Ability: if you have exactly 5 cards in hand, your opponent can't take any Prize cards for Knocking it Out. Vulpix (012) was revealed with it.
- Kecleon (Colorless, 80 HP) with Synchro Body takes the type of all your Benched Pokémon, in addition to its own.
- Persian (Colorless, 100 HP) draws 2 cards if you have at least two Pokémon in play with the Pay Day attack, like the Meowth from the same set, and with Greedy Slash does 20 damage for each card in your hand.
The list also includes Squirtle and Wartortle (014 and 015), completing the line with Blastoise, plus Bellsprout, Treecko and Grovyle, whose numbers are not known yet.

When it releases and when it reaches the West
In Japan Aura Seeker releases on Friday, November 27, 2026: 5-card packs at 200 yen, 78 cards in the main set plus the secret rares. It is one of the last sets at 200 yen: from the May 2027 sets the Japanese pack goes up to 230 yen.
In English the same cards will arrive in the Flowing Fists set on February 5, 2027. As always the Western set will not be an exact copy: numbers change and there may be extra cards.
What they will be worth
There is no price yet: the cards are not on sale and what circulates are pre-orders. The real price forms in the first weeks after November 27. The closest benchmark for the Crasher Wake secret rare is Hara's other card, Palafin ex from Prismatic Evolutions, which you can find on DarkDex with an up-to-date price.
