Pokémon 30th Anniversary, Begins (Official Logo)

Hearing rumors the set is coming out 9/16 with 6 cards per pack, but that date is probably wrong since these sets come out on a Friday.

Will be interesting to see if the 16th will be the actual release date.

I’m looking forward to this!

Today I’ve seen a video from PTCG radio. He thinks that the release date could be a typo and supposed to be October 16th. Reason is that play Asia lists other 30th anniversary tcg products for a 16th October release.

It would make sense since then it would be a Friday.

25th had Shining and Gold star reprints.

DPPt and CoL next for 30th? :thinking:

I would expect delays and a massively segmented release schedule. They can’t even do a proper release of a random regular set anymore.

Wow, these are pretty cute. I though I loved the Squirtle, but the Bulbasaur and Oddish is super sweet.

The Pikachu and Caterpie seems like a classic throwback to the anime interaction and also has been depicted in the Sealdass stitch touch series of cards. Really awesome product.


Thanks for sharing the news as always @koala

Cheers!

I was actually wondering why these two were put together along with the charmander/diglett.

Cool reference to Tiresome/Noisy: Habits of a virgin of the Kansei era
From the Thirty-two aspects of Customs and Manners by Yoshitoshi


Fun fact: the word 風俗 translated as "customs and manners" in this context is also used to refer to sex work or entertainment. I wish they added the retro textures instead of flat colors

thanks for fixing the link @Quuador :slight_smile:

I don’t want marshmallowhead.

Just print more cards, and make better games.

I hope this doesn’t happen, and forgive me if I sound cynical, but considering what the hobby has turned into, I genuinely wonder if TPC is going to pull a page out of Hasbro’s book and go all-in on marketing to the whaliest of whales for the big 30th anniversary product:
