Pokemon 30th Celebration · English
The English 30th Celebration is here, and it's a big one: 199 cards in all. That's 128 main-set cards (including a 30-card Pikachu run, each with a fireworks holofoil), 33 secret rares, a 30-card Classic Collection of gold-bordered reprints, and eight Basic Energy. Every card in the set is foil.
Our English set mixes cards from Japan's 30th Celebration set with its Espeon ex & Umbreon ex Premium Deck Set, and a few cards have been turned into promos (the Nidorina and Ditto Illustration Rares were cut for that). Note there are no standalone booster packs this time: packs live inside the special products below, each with five foil cards, a guaranteed Pikachu, a foil energy and a TCG Live code.
The chases include the Mewtwo ex and Mew ex Futuristic Rares by YOSHIROTTEN, ex Special Illustration Rares of Salamence ex, Jirachi ex, Sylveon ex and two Pikachu ex, and the base-set Charizard in the Classic Collection. Here's the full product line-up, then every card revealed so far.
