Important Note

Stock flies off the shelves and it seems even more likely to do so in the lead-up to Christmas. New sets, gift boxes, and tins often sell out within days. Availability varies between branches, especially in smaller stores. We hope this list can provide you with some extra options to check out!

The Pokémon Company has increased production in recent years, printing faster and in larger volumes than before to meet growing demand. Official stock has become much more stable, but early shoppers still get the best choice.

If you’re planning to gift Pokémon cards this Christmas, buy early and stick to trusted retailers to make sure you’re getting genuine products.
