The Pokemon TCG has announced a new collaboration with artist Yu Nagaba, famous for his line illustrations. This is their second collaboration, with the first being in July 2021.
The new collaboration is called “YU NAGABA x Pokemon Card Game Eevee’s Special Box” and will be released on May 24th for 4,800 yen. The box includes a long card box, a rubber playmat, a set of card sleeves, and a deck box featuring his artwork.
Additionally, a 9-pocket portfolio and card display frame will be released on the same day. The portfolio costs 1,980 yen and includes ten 9-pocket pages that can store 180 cards. The display frame costs 1,490 yen.
These items can only be purchased through lotteries on the Japanese Pokemon Center website. The website is currently down due to the high traffic for these items.
Starting May 24th, for every 1,000 yen of Pokemon TCG products purchased from the Pokemon Center, fans will also receive a promo card of Eevee or its Evolutions (up to 10 cards max). Those who win the lotteries for the above products will also receive one promo for every item they purchase, except for the Eevee Special Box, where you’ll get four promos.
In addition, a list of the different types of Eevee and its evolution promo cards was provided. They are:
- Eevee
- Vaporeon
- Jolteon
- Flareon
- Espeon
- Umbreon
- Leafeon
- Glaceon

Finally, a new collaboration between YU NAGABA and the Japanese clothing brand BEAMS will be announced on May 5th.
