What is the Silver Tempest Set Mascot?
Alolan Vulpix is the main set mascot for Pokémon Silver Tempest. As well as featuring on the pack art, this character also features on the Elite Trainer Box artwork as well as the special card sleeves.
Alolan Vulpix has been announced as one of the six new VSTAR cards and it is to be expected that there will be a regular card and a secret rare VSTAR. There is also likely to be a regular Alolan Vulpix V card as well as an alternate art version.
