If you're a Pokémon card collector, you know the absolute nightmare that is fighting off secondary-market scalpers the second a limited-edition card drops.

There is another way.

To celebrate three decades of pocket monsters, The Pokémon Company is dropping a limited-edition Mewtwo promo card starting Oct.

2.

Instead of forcing you to drop $100+ on a massive Elite Trainer Box, you only need to spend $15 or more on any Pokémon TCG products to trigger the gift-with-purchase.

The card features an exclusive "Pokémon 30" foil stamping that won't appear in standard booster packs.

Plus, every promo card comes with a secondary QR code card that links directly to the Pokémon Night Out event experience.

It's valid both online and in-store, but given how quickly anniversary merch disappears, you'll want to lock in your order without delay.

The participating retailers are as follows: Barnes & Noble Best Buy BoxLunch Five Below GameStop Hot Topic Macy’s If you're trying to figure out what to buy to hit that $15 spend limit, the actual 30th Celebration expansion lands worldwide on Sept.

The set is a massive trip down memory lane, featuring remastered artwork, classic card reprints, and an unprecedented gimmick: every single booster pack contains a guaranteed rare Pikachu card out of a set of 30 unique designs.
