Pokémon TCG Holiday Calendar 2022

Pokémon TCG Holiday Calendar 2022 card list: the first calendar's 8 foil promos with a festive stamp, including Ice Rider Calyrex V and VMAX and Pikachu SWSH153.

The 2022 edition is the first Pokémon TCG Holiday Calendar; pokemon.com lists it simply as Holiday Calendar, launched on 1 September 2022. The maker's description promises 8 foil promo cards with a festive stamp, two of them Pokémon V and one a Pokémon VMAX, and mentions fan favourites Pikachu and Lapras alongside the gift-toting Delibird. The V and VMAX cards are Eiscue V, Ice Rider Calyrex V and Ice Rider Calyrex VMAX. This checklist has 8 entries. Pokémon Holiday Calendar 2022 card list: • Ice Rider Calyrex V — Chilling Reign 045/198 • Ice Rider Calyrex VMAX — Chilling Reign 046/198 • Abomasnow — Chilling Reign 010/198 • Delibird — Chilling Reign 032/198 • Eiscue V — Rebel Clash 055/192 • Beartic — Darkness Ablaze 049/189 • Lapras — Sword & Shield 048/202 • Pikachu — SWSH Black Star Promos SWSH153 PokeGuardian published the same eight when the promos were revealed on 23 August 2022; TCGCollector and Bill's Archive (8 November 2026) list them today. Seven of the eight are reprints with a snowflake stamp. Pikachu SWSH153 is different: it is a Black Star promo by the illustrator sowsow, and Pikawiz lists the 2022 calendar as the only product it came in; PokeGuardian notes that it carries the festive stamp too. Our pictures of the seven reprints show their regular set printings, without the snowflake; the calendar copies are foil. The rest of the box, per pokemon.com: six Sword & Shield Series booster packs, six three-card fun packs, two Pokémon coins, two colourful sticker sheets, a sidekick dangler and a Pokémon TCG Live code card. Six fun packs instead of seven set it apart from every later calendar, and the dangler from the 2025 edition, which also has six boosters. Pikachu has been in every calendar since: 049/195 in 2023, Pikachu ex 063/193 in 2024 and 025/165 in 2025. The anniversary year's thirty Pikachu illustrations are in our 30th Celebration: 30 Pikachu checklist. Delibird returned in 2025, and Eiscue in 2024 as Eiscue ex.
