The Pokémon TCG 30th Anniversary Set: What is “30th CELEBRATION” and When Does It Drop?

Get ready, trainers! To commemorate three decades of the Pokémon TCG, the highly anticipated 30th-anniversary expansion pack, “30th CELEBRATION,” is set for a simultaneous worldwide release on September 16, 2026.

The biggest buzz surrounding this landmark set is the debut of a brand-new rarity: FUR (Futuristic Rare). This ultra-premium tier features Mew ex and Mewtwo ex with stunning, vibrant visuals designed by YOSHIROTTEN, a renowned Japanese graphic artist celebrated for his high-end digital art and avant-garde style. Built around the concept of “inspiring hope for the future,” these cards mark a historic first for the TCG and are already driving the community into a frenzy.

But that’s not all. In honor of the 30th anniversary, the set will feature 30 unique Pikachu cards illustrated by 30 different legendary artists. Every single pack is guaranteed to include one of these Pikachu cards, and all of them will feature a stunning holofoil finish. It’s an absolute dream come true for completionists, offering a beautiful showcase of diverse art styles and personalities for Pokémon’s iconic mascot.

Furthermore, nostalgia bait is running high with a special sub-set of 30 iconic historical cards getting premium reprints. Expect to see heavy hitters like the original 1996 Base Set Charizard and the massive Sun & Moon era favorite Pikachu & Zekrom GX. This trip down memory lane makes 30th CELEBRATION a must-have for day-one fans, casual collectors, and competitive players alike.

¥100,000 JPY~¥70,000 JPY

Expectations for its inclusion are soaring after images of promotional booklets bundled with overseas products circulated on social media, featuring card artwork believed to be “Gengar ex SAR.” It charmingly depicts Gengar’s trademark mischievous smile.

*Editorial Note: This card is a placeholder prediction by our editorial team and has not been officially confirmed for inclusion.

Since its debut as a Mythical Pokémon in Pokémon Red and Green, Mew has fascinated fans around the world for 30 years. In this set, Mew ex is confirmed as a “FUR” card, and an “SAR” printing is also highly plausible. If Mew ex SAR is included, the combination of a landmark 30th-anniversary pack and Mew’s overwhelming global popularity will likely cause its price to spike immediately after release.

As a Generation 1 Legendary Pokémon, Mewtwo boasts immense popularity and a massive fan base. The “Rocket’s Mewtwo ex SAR” released in 2025 is currently trading for over ¥80,000 JPY. If included as a full-art SAR in addition to its FUR card, it is expected to surge even higher than past releases.

A Mythical Pokémon said to awaken for only 7 days once every 1,000 years. It enjoys great popularity due to its cute appearance reminiscent of shooting stars and Tanabata wish strips, as well as its story in Pokémon: Jirachi—Wish Maker. Special illustration cards for Jirachi haven’t appeared since “Jirachi P.” If included as the overseas leaks suggest, this would be its first appearance in nearly 10 years, leading to expected market price growth.

Among them, the most popular, “Umbreon ex SAR,” is currently trading around ¥70,000 JPY. If a full-art SAR is included, the synergy between Eevee’s popularity and the added value of the 30th anniversary will likely drive prices up.

¥60,000 JPY~¥42,000 JPY
*Editorial Note: This card is a placeholder prediction by our editorial team and has not been officially confirmed for inclusion.

A Dragon-type Pokémon introduced in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. It is said that its pre-evolution, Bagon, continuously wished to fly until it finally grew large wings.

If confirmed, this will be a highly desirable card to collect alongside Bagon.

What Other Hidden Gems Are Expected in “30th CELEBRATION”?

The 30 Iconic Nostalgia Reprints

Speculation has run wild across X (formerly Twitter) and Reddit following a teaser on the official Pokémon TCG 30th Anniversary special website. Fans spotted a visual montage of 30 historical cards. Since Charizard and Pikachu & Zekrom GX are already confirmed, it’s safe to assume the remaining 28 cards from that video will form the backbone of this set’s nostalgic subset.

Will We See a Secret Rare Eevee?

Given Eevee’s immense standing in the franchise, many insiders predict it will get a high-rarity slot. Looking back at the 25th Anniversary Collection, Eevee didn’t get a dedicated base card, though Umbreon Star was famously tucked into the exclusive promo packs. A premium-rarity Eevee in 30th CELEBRATION would send shockwaves through the collecting community.

“30th CELEBRATION” Expected Booster Box Pull Rates

While the exact pull rates for the new FUR rarity remain a mystery, we can look at historical data for a baseline. During the 25th Anniversary Collection era, a standard Japanese booster box guaranteed 4 Double Rares (RR), 2 Triple Rares (RRR), and 1 Professor’s Research (Professor Oak) SR, with the elusive Mew UR acting as a rare master-case hit. Expect 30th CELEBRATION to follow a similar high-stakes structure, making every box an exhilarating open.
