Best Pokémon 30th Anniversary Products: Our Simplified Chinese Picks

The Espeon & Umbreon Gift Box is our first pick from the Simplified Chinese Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration range. Charizard comes next for its display appeal, followed by the booster box for collectors who want more packs. The full lineup is now listed on PokeAri for preorder, with a September 16, 2026 release date.

Here is what makes each product worth considering—and what comes inside.

1. Espeon & Umbreon Gift Box: Our Top Pick

If you are choosing one anniversary gift box, start with the Espeon & Umbreon Gift Box. You get both featured Pokémon ex cards, a frame that displays them together, matching day-and-night collectibles, and 15 packs to open. It is the strongest all-round choice in our lineup for collectors who want cards, a display piece, and an opening session in one box.

Inside the box:

• 1 Espeon ex foil card

• 1 Umbreon ex foil card

• 1 day-themed refrigerator magnet

• 1 night-themed refrigerator magnet

• 1 dual-card display frame

• 15 30th Celebration booster packs, with 6 cards per pack

The paired artwork gives this box its character. Both featured cards are included, so the display is complete before you open a pack.

2. Charizard Figure Box: A Bestseller for Charizard Fans

Charizard has a place in countless Pokémon collections, and the 30th Anniversary Charizard Figure Box is one of our anniversary bestsellers. The figure and oversized card turn its familiar artwork into a shelf centerpiece, while 15 booster packs give you plenty to open.

Inside the box:

• 1 Charizard figure

• 1 oversized Charizard card, approximately 13.3 × 18.7 cm

• 15 30th Celebration booster packs, with 6 cards per pack

Choose this one for a Charizard display or a gift for a Charizard collector. The included Charizard card is the oversized display card.

3. 30th Celebration Booster Box: Best for Opening Packs

The 30th Celebration Booster Box (30th C) is our pick when the packs are the main attraction. It contains 20 packs, giving you more anniversary boosters than either of the gift boxes above.

Inside the box:

• 20 30th Celebration booster packs

• 6 foil cards per pack

• 120 cards in total

Every pack includes one card from the collection of 30 Pikachu illustrations by 30 artists. That gives each opening a clear collecting theme, alongside the wider anniversary card pool. Cards are random, and repeated Pikachu designs can appear.

Start here if you want to build your 30th C collection through pack opening. Add the Espeon & Umbreon or Charizard box when you also want a featured display piece.

Espeon ex or Umbreon ex Premium Deck Set: Best for Players

The 30th Celebration Premium Deck Set brings the day-and-night theme to the play table. Choose the Espeon ex edition or the Umbreon ex edition; each contains one corresponding deck and matching equipment.

Each edition includes:

• 1 corresponding Pokémon ex deck

• 1 matching metal deck case with a damage-counter case

• 1 matching Pokémon coin

• 1 matching paper playmat

• 1 sheet of paper damage counters

• 1 corresponding deck strategy guide

• 2 30th Celebration booster packs, with 6 cards per pack

• 1 beginner's guide

This is the choice for fans who want to play with their anniversary purchase. The metal case and matching accessories also give the deck a home between games.

Greninja ex or Sylveon ex Card Display Set: A Compact Collector's Pick

The 30th Celebration Card Display Set puts one favorite Pokémon at the center. Choose Greninja ex or Sylveon ex for a matching card-and-display pairing that fits a desk or shelf.

Each edition includes:

• 1 foil card featuring the selected Pokémon ex

• 1 matching themed card display holder

• 3 30th Celebration booster packs, with 6 cards per pack

The featured card is included with its matching display, making this an easy gift for someone who collects that Pokémon. Sylveon also makes a fitting companion to an Eeveelution collection.

Pikachu Figure Set: Card Art for Your Shelf

The 30th Anniversary Pikachu Figure Set pairs a Pikachu figure with the foil card behind its design. Seeing the illustration recreated as a figure is the appeal here.

Inside each box:

• 1 random Pikachu figure

• 1 matching Pikachu foil card

• 1 30th Celebration booster pack containing 6 cards

There are 13 figure designs, including one hidden design. This is a blind box, so the figure and matching card are random. Pick it for the artwork-to-figure pairing and the surprise of opening it.

30th Anniversary Coin Set: A Second Collection to Build

The 30th Anniversary Coin Set adds Pikachu coins to your anniversary opening. It is a good addition for collectors who enjoy displaying and trading small collectibles alongside their cards.

Inside each set:

• 2 random themed Pokémon coins

• 3 30th Celebration booster packs, with 6 cards per pack

The coin range has 30 Pikachu designs, each with four finishes, including a hidden finish. Designs and finishes are random.

Anniversary Accessories: Protect and Display the Collection

The matching accessories give your new cards and coins somewhere to go. These are separate choices on the product pages; select the item you want.

The 30th Celebration Accessories page offers:

• Card Sleeves: 64 sleeves

• Deck Box: 1 deck box with 2 dividers

• Damage Counter Box: 1 storage box for damage counters

• Coin Album: 1 album with 30 coin slots

The 30th Anniversary Coin Frame, Playmat & Binder page offers:

• Coin Display Frame: 1 commemorative frame for displaying Pokémon coins

• Two-Player Rubber Playmat: 1 black-and-gold anniversary playmat

• 360-Pocket Collection Binder: 1 PU leather zip binder with 9-pocket pages and 360 card slots

Choose sleeves and a deck box for play, the binder for your card collection, or a coin album or frame to go with the Coin Set. Cards, coins, and booster packs are sold separately from these accessories.

Which One Should You Buy First?

Our first recommendation is the Espeon & Umbreon Gift Box: two featured cards, a paired display, and 15 packs make it the most rounded purchase. Choose the Charizard Figure Box if Charizard leads your collection, or the 30th C Booster Box if opening packs is your priority.

Then build around your favorite Pokémon: a deck for play, a figure or card set for display, and matching accessories to finish the collection.
