The story so far
Collectors face limited regional access to new merchandise, including a Base set Charizard figurine restricted to one country. These items arrive as part of a wider series of announcements for the Pokémon 30th anniversary celebration. Beyond the physical collectibles, the event features a giveaway of Basic Energy cards currently taking place at the Pokémon World Championships.
Pokémon.com and PokeBeach have confirmed the inclusion of Lugia, Ho-Oh, Unown, Pikachu, and the Legendary Birds within the upcoming Pokémon Trading Card Game: 30th Celebration set. Polygon describes these as potentially the rarest cards ever sold, while an interview with YOSHIROTTEN provides additional context on the artistic direction of the milestone collection. Detailed specifications regarding the full card roster and the final global distribution strategy for the Charizard figurine remain unconfirmed.
Observers are tracking whether additional international markets will gain access to the restricted figurine or if specific release windows will change for the trading card sets.
