As Pokemon celebrates its 25th anniversary all this year, the demand for its collectible cards have gone through the roof.
It is so high that the company recently had to issue a statement claiming that it has increased its printing production of the Pokemon cards to ensure availability to the customers.
In a recent post, The Pok¨¦mon Company announced that it is aware of the difficulties that some of the consumers are experiencing in buying the Pokemon Trading Card Game products. The company blamed this shortage in availability on ¡°very high demand and global shipping constraints.¡±
As a solution, the company pointed out that it is actively working to ¡°print more of the impacted Pok¨¦mon TCG products.¡± It promises to increase the production as quickly as possible and at maximum capacity in order to meet the increased demand.
The company also hinted at the availability of its upcoming trading cards. It stated that it is maximizing production to increase the new product availability right at the time of its release. It confirmed that the reprinted products will be available at retailers soon.
The company has not provided any specific time for the availability of the products though.
