The Shining Synergy GX Starter Deck (Simplified Chinese: GX起始卡组 交相辉映) is a Simplified Chinese-exclusive Pokémon Trading Card Game deck with random elements that was released in mainland China on January 18, 2023.
Information
Each GX Starter Deck includes 60 cards comprising two randomly paired 30-card groups. Each group has a selection of Pokémon cards that typically focus on one type, an assortment of Trainer cards, and multiples of supporting basic Energy cards. The two card groups each have 20 possible varieties.
GX Starter Decks are also packaged with a cardboard sheet containing damage counters, Special Condition markers, and a GX marker; a rulesheet; and a bonus booster pack containing one of 40 possible cards. Twenty-five of these are Trainer cards that can also be found in the deck, while 15 Secret cards can only be found in the bonus pack. All cards have a collection number and set symbol specific to the deck, but do not feature any rarity symbols. All Secret cards are Holofoil, while all other cards are Non Holofoil.
Sky Pillar was the subject of an erratum issued on October 19, 2023 after it was identified that the card had incorrectly been given the "C" regulation mark instead of the "B" regulation mark; the erratum revised its official regulation mark to "B" to bring it in line with other prints.
