Pokémon TCG's hotly anticipated 30th Celebration set begins its rollout on September 16th, and we finally know what’s inside each of its massive waves. If you want to get your hands on a booster pack, each with five foil cards and one Pikachu card from a special set of 30 unique artworks, you’ll need to pick up one of these special products - they won’t be sold individually!Wave 1 - September 16th, 2026In this first wave, there are five awesome new Pokémon TCG products you can get your hands on (if you can beat the bots, that is).First up: the 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Box for $49.99. This is bound to be a popular one. You get nine booster packs, a fancy Nidorina promo, 16 foil Energy cards, and all the usual extras. Wait, Nidorina? Yes - it’s the first time a Nidorina card has held flagship promo status, but why? Pokémaniacs among us will know she’s #0030 in the National Pokédex, which is a very nice detail.Inside - say it with me - you get:9 Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration booster packs1 Full-art Nidorina promo card (packed with 30 individual Nidorina in the artwork)16 Foil Basic Energy cards65 Premium card sleevesA player’s guide to the 30th Celebration expansion6 Damage-counter dice1 competition-legal coin-flip die1 Plastic coinA collector’s box with 6 organizational dividersA code card for Pokémon Trading Card Game LiveCan’t grab the Pokémon Center exclusive? The regular ETB is still a beast. So far, we’ve only seen product pictures, but the Pokémon Center exclusive bumps you up to 11 packs and gives you two Nidorina promos—one with the Pokémon Center stamp, one without, over the regular ETB. Both play the same, but the stamped one is, naturally, the real collector's gem.If your walls are feeling a bit sparse, the Poster Collection is a steal at $14.99. Three packs, a huge double-sided poster with every card, and foil promos of Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. The Tech Sticker Collection (also $14.99) gives you three packs, a sticker sheet for your laptop, and a foil promo—either Alolan Exeggutor or Lucario.If you’re after heavy-hitters, check out the 30th Celebration Pokémon ex Box for $21.99: four packs, a shiny foil promo, and a jumbo version of either Sylveon ex or Greninja ex.Even if you’re on a bit of a smaller budget, you won’t have to miss out on the 30th Anniversary celebrations. The 30th Celebration Knock Out Collection and 2-Pack Blisters ($9.99 each) give you two packs, a plastic coin, and an Eevee promo. Cute!Wave 2 - October 2, 2026The second 30th Celebrations Pokémon TCG wave is all about specialized storage solutions and fast pack rips, landing just weeks after the launch of Wave 1. Let's HM08 in!I personally love these 30th Celebration Day & Night Mini Tins, coming in at a respectable $9.99. Each tin has two packs, a sticker sheet, and an art card that matches the tin. Put all the tins together and the Unown spell out "ANNIVERSARY" - how cool is that! You can really feel care and effort has gone into the design to celebrate this historic milestone.The 30th Celebration Binder Collection ($31.99) is a must. You get a premium 9-pocket binder and five booster packs to show off your favorite cards.Just want packs? The 30th Celebration Booster Bundle ($26.94) gives you six straight-up 30th Celebration packs, which is one of the best ways to chase those awesome YOSHIROTTEN Futuristic Rares.Wave 3 - October 30, 2026Wave 3 is a much smaller release than the other two, but perfect for the Eevee-lovers in your life.30th Celebration Espeon ex and Umbreon ex Battle Decks ($19.99) are all-foil, ready-to-play 60-card decks. You get a deck box, coin, playmat, and a bonus rare—Victini for Espeon, Zeraora for Umbreon.Wave 4 - November 6, 2026There's still more celebrating to go! This one is a big one, so make sure to mark your calendars if you don't want to pay a fortune on third-party markets. The 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection ($179.99) come in two flavors: Day (Pikachu ex and Espeon ex) or Night (Pikachu ex and Umbreon ex). Either way, you get a themed playmat, sleeves, deck box, and 29 standard 30th Celebration booster packs.It seems pricey at first glance, but the really cool thing about these sets is the three-card Classic Collection pack inside. This is your only guaranteed shot at these vintage throwbacks, since Classic Collection cards are some of the rarest chases. No official pull rates yet, but collectors think they’ll be as tough as special rares—maybe 1 in 8 to 12 packs. That just makes them even more desirable, so good luck.The 30th Celebration Ditto Premium Collection ($39.99) is for display fans. You get a Ditto promo, eight packs, and a bright acrylic stand for your favorite card. Ditto cards have been seeing a lot of love recently; if you love Pokémon Pokopia, this one’s for you!Last up for this wave: a real Kanto throwback. The 30th Celebration Mewtwo & Mew Figure Collections ($29.99) include five packs, a foil promo, a jumbo card of the legends, and a detailed Mew or Mewtwo figure so you can recreate that iconic first movie scene. Talking Pikachu not included.Wave 5 - December 4, 2026Last, but by no means least, we're rounding out Pokémon’s 30th Celebration's in style.Finishing off the year, Pokébeach reports that there will be a classic 30th Celebration Pokémon ex Tin ($21.99) has four packs and brings back the Sylveon ex or Greninja ex promos.Official Pokémon Center pre-orders aren’t live yet, and there’s no date confirmed.
