Every card in every pack is foil, every pack holds one of 30 different Pikachu cards, and the set debuts the new FUR rarity. This is a factory-sealed box of 20 booster packs, produced for mainland China, with all card text in Simplified Chinese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e20 booster packs\u003c\/strong\u003e of the 30th Celebration expansion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6 cards per pack\u003c\/strong\u003e, and every one of them is foil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne of 30 Pikachu cards\u003c\/strong\u003e in every pack, each drawn by a different illustrator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll card text printed in \u003cstrong\u003eSimplified Chinese\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory sealed, exactly as it was packed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat makes 120 cards per box, all of them foil. Because a Pikachu is guaranteed in each pack, one sealed box gives you twenty chances at the thirty Pikachu artworks before you count anything else you pull.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy This Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e30th Celebration marks thirty years of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, and it breaks from normal set design in ways that suit collectors. There are no non-foil slots at all, so every card you open has a finish worth keeping. The anniversary is built around Pikachu: thirty different Pikachu cards, each by a different artist, spread across the set so that every pack carries one. Alongside them, thirty cards chosen from the game's history return in a special anniversary style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Simplified Chinese print is the same anniversary set in a language most UK collections do not have. It makes a natural partner for an English 30th Celebration collection: the same headline cards, with Chinese card text and the Chinese Pokémon logo on every pack. For a sealed collector, it is a way to own the anniversary in a form that stands apart. For an opener, it is the full all-foil 30th Celebration experience, twenty packs deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA booster box is also the most direct way into a set. Twenty packs give you a real spread of the Pikachu line-up and a genuine run at the rarer cards, in one sealed product rather than a scattering of loose packs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Cards to Chase in 30th Celebration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe headline cards are the \u003cstrong\u003eFUR\u003c\/strong\u003e rares, a new rarity that debuts with this set. Their artwork is by the graphic artist \u003cstrong\u003eYOSHIROTTEN\u003c\/strong\u003e, whose bright, patterned designs are meant to evoke hope for an unknown future. Two of the set's best known cards carry the treatment:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMew ex (FUR)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMewtwo ex (FUR)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNext come the \u003cstrong\u003e30 Pikachu cards\u003c\/strong\u003e. With one in every pack, completing all thirty artworks is a hunt that runs across several boxes, and it is the part of the set that makes every single pack worth opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen there is the anniversary line-up: \u003cstrong\u003e30 classic cards\u003c\/strong\u003e from the game's history, brought back in a special style for the celebration. Two of the best known are the \u003cstrong\u003eoriginal Charizard\u003c\/strong\u003e from the very first Pokémon Trading Card Game set and \u003cstrong\u003ePikachu \u0026amp; Zekrom-GX\u003c\/strong\u003e from the Sun \u0026amp; Moon era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with every booster product, what you pull is random. A sealed box simply gives you the most packs, and the most chances, in one go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Simplified Chinese Print\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis box is the official \u003cstrong\u003eSimplified Chinese\u003c\/strong\u003e release of 30th Celebration, produced for mainland China. Every card's text is in Simplified Chinese, and each pack shows the Chinese Pokémon logo alongside the 30th Celebration emblem. The packs are clearly marked as holding six random cards, with every card foil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is also a separate \u003cstrong\u003eTraditional Chinese\u003c\/strong\u003e print of 30th Celebration. This box is the Simplified Chinese version, made for mainland China, so it is worth checking which language a listing means before you buy any Chinese product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are building an English-language collection, this print is a distinct item rather than a duplicate: the anniversary headliners in a second language. If you collect sealed product, a factory-sealed box is the cleanest way to hold this print.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKeeping It Sealed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you plan to keep the box sealed, store it flat, out of direct sunlight and away from damp, and leave the factory wrap untouched. The wrap is what shows a box has never been opened, so it is worth protecting from scuffs and tears. A simple acrylic or cardboard protector case does the job for most collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you plan to open it, the twenty packs make for a good session: sort your Pikachu by artwork as you go, and set the FUR rares and the anniversary classics aside in sleeves straight away, since every card in this set is foil and marks easily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMore from 30th Celebration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLooking for the English print?
