Four cards have been revealed so far: Giratina (Platinum 10), Honchkrow G (Platinum 77) and two Shaymin: Shaymin (Platinum 14) (Land Forme) and Shaymin (Platinum 15). Giratina was revealed on Tuesday, with Honchkrow G following two days later. The Giratina card is significant because it is the first English card release of Giratina's Origin Forme. Honchkrow G is the first Pokémon SP to be revealed in English. Cyrus, the leader of Team Galactic, owns the Honchkrow. Shaymin was later revealed and has been confirmed after having a cameo appearance in a promotional video. The Sky Forme was revealed one week after its Land Forme.
