Sword & Shield: Vivid Portrayals (Chinese: 剑 & 盾 浓墨重彩 Sword & Shield Vivid Portrayals) is the name given to the second Simplified Chinese Pokémon Trading Card Game set in the Sword and Shield Era, and fourth overall set.

The set was released on August 18, 2023 and consists of 2 subsets: Obsidian (Chinese: 黎) and Indigo (Chinese: 靛), with each subset covering specific types of Pokémon cards. The Obsidian subset was assigned expansion mark CS2a, has Gigantamax Charizard as its cover Pokémon, and features Grass, Fire, Fighting and Metal Pokémon.

As with all other Asian-exclusive sets, Vivid Portrayals contains a large selection of cards in an effort to catch up with Japanese and international releases. However, this set also includes Reverse Type Holofoil prints of all Common, Uncommon and Rare cards, which are exclusive to Simplified Chinese sets. Another feature exclusive to the Simplified Chinese cards is that all Holofoil cards including Reverse Holofoil have an English Pokémon logo embossed at the bottom left corner of the card under Expansion and Regulation Marks as proof of authenticity.[1] Secret cards feature an additional watermark with larger Pokémon logo and a latent image of Poké Ball, which is printed inside the card’s rule box or on the right of the rarity symbol if the card doesn’t have a rule box.

This set comes in 5-card booster packs. Each pack include 5 cards per pack with one card guaranteed to be either Reverse Holofoil or has a rarity of Rare or above. Each 5-card booster box includes 30 booster packs.
