That's why I'm rounding up all of my findings on where to buy Pokemon TCG First Partner Illustration Collection Series 1 below, with suggestions for the most likeliest retailers to still have stock if listings dry up - they often receive extra copies of the best card games when everyone else has run out.

Pokemon First Partner Illustration Collection Series 1 FAQ
Still a bit unsure of what this thing is? It's a box set containing a pack with three of nine possible promo cards (each featuring a starter 'mon from different eras), two booster packs, and a sticker sheet. That means folks are likely to be tracking this down with more fury than Team Rocket going after your best Pokemon.
When does the Pokemon TCG First Partner Illustration Collection Series 1 come out?
This limited box set for the 30th anniversary of Pokemon is now live! It launched on March 20, 2026.
Why are Pokemon cards so hard to buy?
Any new (or even new-ish) release for the Pokemon TCG is near-impossible to get in store, and that's for a couple of reasons. Wild popularity takes some of the blame, but dastardly resellers are responsible for more. They scoop up as many products as they can to sell on at a drastically inflated price, forcing real fans to pay through the nose. It's gross.
Production could also be an issue here. When there's this much demand and too few items to go around, it creates a problem. Fortunately, it feels as though The Pokemon Company is working to solve the issue - it's acquiring a US card game distributor.
Will there be a Pokemon First Partner Illustrated Collection Series 2?
Considering how this release is notably called "Series 1" and doesn't feature all the starter Pokemon, I'd say it's almost guaranteed that a follow-up is on the way. We don't have an official announcement or any timeframe though, so fans will just have to wait for the time being.
