Nearly 21 years after the Pok\u00e9mon disappeared from the franchise\u2019s card game, Kadabra is finally going to be featured in a new Pok\u00e9mon <\/em>TCG set this year. <\/p>
A special set called Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 <\/em>is going to release in Japan this June, and with it comes new cards of the original 151 Pok\u00e9mon in some shape or form. Alakazam ex is listed among those cards and Pok\u00e9Beach<\/a> has now confirmed that Kadabra will be included in this release\u2014making it the Psychic-type’s first appearance since 2002.<\/p>
Kadabra has not been featured in the Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> TCG in 21 years because of legal action between illusionist Uri Geller and The Pok\u00e9mon Company over the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s appearance, name, and spoon-bending abilities. But all these years later, Geller openly talked about how he regrets his actions<\/a> and wrote a letter to The Pok\u00e9mon Company and Nintendo in November 2020 that allowed them to bring Kadabra back.\u00a0<\/p>
