Inside the Futuristic Box

A YOSHIROTTEN-designed battle supply set built around the two exclusive Pikachu ex Futuristic rare promos. Every accessory carries the same visual language as the cards — designed as a collector display piece as much as a play kit. Pokémon Center Online exclusive at launch; ¥27,500 (tax included).

Cards

• Pikachu ex (day variant) — Futuristic rare promo, illus. YOSHIROTTEN
• Pikachu ex (night variant) — Futuristic rare promo, illus. YOSHIROTTEN

Accessories

• 64 special deck shields
• Flip deck case
• Special rubber half playmat
• Flip playmat case
• Flip damage counter case
• Special display frame
• 12 metal damage counter dice
• 2 Pokémon coins
• Metal poison marker & burn marker (1 each)

Pokémon Center Online exclusive at launch — may reach Pokémon Centers and stores at a later date. Expect demand to significantly outpace supply; treat this like a lottery product and register early.

The two promo Pikachu ex are unique to this box — they will not appear in regular booster packs. The Futuristic rare Mew ex and Mewtwo ex do appear in standard packs.

Inside the Premium Deck Set: Espeon & Umbreon

Two ready-to-play 60-card pre-constructed decks built around Espeon ex and Umbreon ex, with everything needed to start battling immediately. ¥6,200 (tax included), 16 September 2026.

Both decks include some reprints from previous series. Card names below are translated from the Japanese product page — English names may differ at EN release.

What's in the box

• Espeon ex pre-constructed deck — 60 cards
• Umbreon ex pre-constructed deck — 60 cards
• Espeon & Umbreon Pokémon coins (1 each)
• 2 sheets of damage counter markers
• Paper full playmat — 30th anniversary design
• Tin slide-type double deck case (holds both decks)
• First-time guide & Player's Guide

Pack & box format

30th Celebration breaks from the standard Japanese booster on three counts — every card is foil, packs hold 6 cards (one more than usual) at ¥360, and boxes are 20 packs (¥7,200). One of the six is always a Pikachu, drawn from a pool of 30 — completing that sub-set alone needs at least 30 packs, so every box is a partial Pikachu hunt.

October wave: 30th Celebration Card Sets

A second wave lands 16 October 2026: nine themed 30th Celebration Card Sets, one per generation. Each covers a region's three starters as holo promos, bundled with two boosters and a paper card stand. ¥1,200 per set.
