Pokémon 30th Celebration UPC: Day vs Night contents, promos, MSRP

Is there a Classic Collection pack in the UPC?

Yes, one in each box. The official list counts 30 packs in total: 29 regular ones and a special pack with three cards from the Classic Collection, the 30 reprinted classics that ride along with the set. ICv2's July 9, 2026 announcement says the same, and the pack, labelled "Classic Collection Pack", sits in the official product shots of both boxes. If a store listing stops at 29 packs, go by the official list.

The pack is a guarantee, not an exclusive. Per the official press kit (reported by Insider Gaming on July 1, 2026), Classic Collection cards also turn up in ordinary 30th Celebration packs. And the TCG Live code is in both boxes, not only Day: TCGplayer lists separate code cards for each.

Day vs Night: the promos, MEP 107–110

The numbers come from the card file names on pokemon.com and match PokéZentrum (October 7) and Cardlines (November 5). These are Mega Evolution Black Star Promos, not cards from the set itself, so they will not show up in your 30th Celebration checklist; both Pikachu ex were illustrated by YOSHIROTTEN. They are also different cards from Espeon ex 070 and Umbreon ex 092 in the main set. On these prices the Night pair is worth about $18 more than the Day pair.

MSRP and retail price: US, UK, Canada, Australia, Europe

The $179.99 figure comes from the July announcement — ICv2 corrected its first number on July 10, which had been the price of a four-box case — and pokemon.com prints no price at all. In the UK, Asmodee has not published an RRP; £169.99 is what Smyths and other shops charge. We found no confirmed Canadian or Australian RRP from two sources, so we are not quoting one. That works out to $6.00 a pack in the US and £5.67 in the UK, counting the Classic Collection pack as a regular one.

Release dates, delays and restocks by country

• US — November 6. The official page says the collections are available at the Pokémon Center and wherever Pokémon TCG products are sold.
• UK — no date. Smyths shows "To be confirmed 2026" with a limit of one per customer (Stock Watch, November 7), and on November 4 said Day, Night and the Ditto Premium Collection were delayed until further notice (Bill's Archive). Pokémon UK's November round-up says only "November 2026".
• Australia — moved from November 6 to November 13, as Toymate and EB Games told pre-order customers; online pre-orders at Kmart, Target, EB Games and JB Hi-Fi had sold out by November 7 (Cardtracker AU; Soleback).
• France — Night went on sale November 6, with overnight queues outside Fnac, Cultura and Leclerc stores; retailers list Day for November 27 (Journal du Geek; Play-in).
• Germany — Smyths Toys said on November 6 that the anniversary products would not release that day and gave no new date (GIGA).

On restocks: as of November 13 neither The Pokémon Company nor any major retailer had announced a restock date. Anything you see promised for a specific day is a retailer's own plan, not an official wave.

What the UPC sells for a week after launch

On November 12 the TCGplayer market price was $346.24 for Day and $369.02 for Night. On October 30, pre-orders traded at $533.97 and $570.25 (Bill's Archive), so the box lost about a third in two weeks. Opening it, at the same November 12 prices, gets you 29 packs at $10.13 plus the two promos: $384.70 for Day and $402.70 for Night, before the Classic Collection pack and accessories. Sealed, the box trades below the sum of its parts.

Log what you pull in the 30th Celebration checklist: 191 entries with prices, plus the 30 Pikachu sub-list. Our 30th Celebration set guide covers the whole product line and every other promo; Delta Reign launched the same day.

Rumours (unconfirmed)

• UK in three shipments. Galar Alerts reported on October 16 that part of the UPC and Ditto stock would reach the UK in three batches rather than on November 6 (via Soleback, November 2). Not confirmed by The Pokémon Company.
• Bigger allocation. PokéZentrum reported, via Soleback (November 2), that retailers were allocated more UPCs than for the 2021 Celebrations UPC. Not confirmed.
