This year is the 30th anniversary of the Pokemon series, and the Trading Card Game is celebrating with a brand new special expansion!
The Pokémon TCG is celebrating 30 years of rich history, and the game is still pushing toward the future with brand-new artwork and experiences. In the 30th Celebration expansion, Futuristic rare cards featuring evocative new visuals will debut as the latest addition to the Pokémon TCG. These initial cards feature Mewtwo and Mew illustrated by none other than famed Japanese artist YOSHIROTTEN!
As you open each Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration booster pack and discover the wonderful foil cards inside, you’re guaranteed to find a sparky surprise—one of 30 different Pikachu cards featuring unique illustrations! Today, we’re unveiling three adorable Pikachu illustrated by OKACHEKE, Yuu Nishida, and Atsuko Nishida. This trio is already so adorable—what others will you find?
Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration will feature Pokémon from different regions for all kinds of collectors. Look forward to a variety of fan-favorite Pokémon, from Espeon and Umbreon going about their days to Lapras, Drifloon, Zorua, and Lycanroc all appearing as delightful illustration rares, and Greninja and Sylveon stunning as brand-new Pokémon ex. There are plenty more Pokémon where those came from, so stay tuned for more!
If you’ve been a fan of the Pokémon TCG for a while, keep an eye out for classic Pokémon receiving top-notch treatment to commemorate their place in the game’s rich history, like Charizard from Base Set and Pikachu & Zekrom-GX from Sun & Moon—Team Up. These reprinted cards won’t be legal to play in the Standard format, but you can still use them in formats that allow the original prints of these cards.
