(Japanese: ポケモンカードゲームやろうぜ～っ！　ソード＆(アンド)シールド編(へん) Let's Play the Pokémon Card Game! Sword & Shield Arc) is a Pokémon manga by Ryū Matsushima. It was serialized in the CoroCoro Ichiban! magazine from the February 2020 issue (released on December 21, 2019) to the February 2023 issue (released on December 21, 2022). It is the sequel of Let's Play the Pokémon Card Game! Sun & Moon Arc and is followed by Let's Play the Pokémon Card Game! Scarlet & Violet Arc. It tells the story of Kenma Ibuki (Japanese: 伊(い)吹(ぶき)ケンマ Ibuki Kenma).

Like its predecessor, this manga was collected into four volumes. These volumes are simply referred to as (Japanese: ポケモンカードゲームやろうぜ～っ！ Let's Play the Pokémon Card Game!), and instead of being labeled numerically, they are individually named (Japanese: ソード＆(アンド)シールド　スタート！編(へん) Sword & Shield Start! Arc), (Japanese: 「いちげき」ｖｓ(バーサス)「れんげき」編(へん) Single Strike vs Rapid Strike Arc), (Japanese: ポケモンＶ(ブイ)ＳＴＡＲ(スター)攻(こう)略(りゃく)！編(へん) Pokémon VSTAR Strategy! Arc), and (Japanese: Ｖ(ブイ)ＳＴＡＲ(スター)！Ｖ(ブイ)ＭＡＸ(マックス)！激(げき)闘(とう)編(へん) VSTAR! VMAX! Fierce Duel Arc). Each volume is 192 pages long.
