A new Day and Night collection for Pokémon Trading Card Game has been announced, and it will contain brand-new designs for two classic and beloved Eeveelutions, so you may want to keep this on your radar and try to grab it. The TCG has recently seen the release of its final expansion of 2026, Delta Reign, and is mostly gearing up for the release of the first Pokémon TCG set of 2027, Flowing Fists, which will be the direct adaptation of the Japanese set called Aura Seeker. Even so, there are still new releases on the way this year.

As was announced by The Pokémon Company International in an official post on the Pokémon UK website, a new collection called Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collections – Day & Night, which arrived in November. This release focuses on Espeon and Umbreon, the two Generation 2 Eeveelutions, with Espeon representing the day-themed set and Umbreon spearheading the night-themed set. The sets also have an exclusive Pikachu ex promo card illustrated by YOSHIROTTEN. As is indicated by their very title, these new collections will, indeed, be “Ultra-Premium,” offering much more content than your regular Elite Trainer Box.

This new Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration release’s Pikachu ex promo card is also themed after Day and Night. As such, if you grab the day-themed set, you’ll get a day-themed Pikachu ex, while the night-themed set offers a night-themed Pikachu ex promo card. The Ultra-Premium Collection box comes with several different goodies, including 30 booster packs, one of which is a special booster pack containing three cards from the Classic Collection. The product also contains special card sleeves and damage-counter dice, not unlike the ones you encounter in ETBs, but there is much more.

The list below highlights all the items within a Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection box:

• 1 foil promo card featuring Pikachu ex
• 1 foil promo card featuring Espeon ex or Umbreon ex
• 1 playmat featuring Pikachu, Espeon or Umbreon, and more
• 65 card sleeves
• 1 deck box
• 1 metal coin featuring Espeon or Umbreon
• 6 damage-counter dice
• 29 Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration booster packs
• 1 Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration Classic Collection booster pack
• A code card for Pokémon TCG Live

This new release comes with a deck box, themed after either Umbreon or Espeon from Pokémon, depending on your purchase. You’ll also get a metal coin featuring one of the two Eeveelutions. What is most impressive, however, is that each box contains a special playmat, centered around the main Eeveelution from the set, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon. This is not like the paper-made playmats that come with Pokémon TCG deck boxes, and seems to have a premium finish, based on the marketing material.

While the 30th Celebration set was officially released in mid-September, the expansion is still being expanded, as the franchise celebrates its 30th anniversary. The two versions of Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection – Day & Night have been officially released and can be purchased via the online Pokémon Center storefront or at retailers like Best Buy – though some stores are imposing restrictions to target Pokémon TCG scalpers.

It may prove a bit difficult to get your hands on one of these new products, since they’ll be highly sought after by both collectors and scalpers, despite the restrictions to impede the latter from making mass purchases. If you’re lucky enough, however, you’ll be purchasing one of the most valuable Pokémon Trading Card products of all time.
