All of the contents of the “Pokemon TCG: Holiday Calendar” have now been revealed!

It costs $49.99 and releases today, September 1st.

As posted before, eight promo cards will be included in the calendar — only Pikachu is new. It’s SWSH153. It was originally a promo that released alongside Japan’s Shocking Volt Tackle back in September 2020. The rest of the cards are reprints. All of them are stamped with a snowflake, as expected.

In total, the calendar will come with:

  • 8 foil promo cards with a festive stamp, including 2 Pokemon V and 1 Pokemon VMAX
  • 2 Pokemon coins
  • 2 colorful sticker sheets
  • 1 sidekick dangler
  • 6 Pokemon TCG: Sword & Shield Series booster packs
  • 6 Pokemon TCG 3-card fun packs
  • A code card for the Pokemon TCG Live

“Fun Packs” contain three common cards, one of which is a reverse holo.

This calendar is inspired by the “Pokemon TCG Countdown Calendar” released in October 2008. The cards in that product also featured a special snowflake stamp.

I always find it weird how they determine promo numbers and then product releases are often very misaligned. The SWSH set is in the mid-upper 200s right now, but they designated SWSH153 for this Pikachu that isn't releasing until December 2023. Why does this happen for both our promo set and Japan's?

TPCi occasionally cancels products with promos, then redesignates their numbers to new promos so there aren't holes.
 
Strange decision that none of the promos are sealed except the Ice Rider Calyrex VMAX, even the Pikachu is just shoved into it raw and prone to damage.
