Looking for the Espeon or Umbreon 30th anniversary box?
In Japan they come together: the ¥6,200 Premium Deck Set Espeon & Umbreon holds both 60-card decks in one box. There is no separate Japanese Espeon box or Umbreon box. The English 30th Celebration lineup splits them instead — one Battle Deck per Pokémon, on October 30, 2026. Two more Espeon and Umbreon items sit in the line as Premium Gloss deck shields (¥990 each, Pokémon Center only).
