⚠️ What is deliberately not on this list
Set names that exist only as trademark filings are excluded until Pokémon or Bandai publishes an official product page — no date, no price, no entry. The one people ask about most right now is Aura Seeker (ハドウシーカー) and the November 27, 2026 date attached to it: neither is official.
