25th Anniversary Collection (CN)

Series: Sword & Shield Era

Set ID: S8AF

Release Date: 20th October 2021

About 25th Anniversary Collection (CN) Pokémon Cards

The Chinese 25th Anniversary set (officially known as the s8a 25th Anniversary Collection) is a highly sought-after, limited-edition release. Manufactured in Japan, it closely mirrors the Japanese set list but is prized by global collectors for its scarcity, exclusivity, and premium product variants.

Base Set & Blister Packs

The core set contains 28 cards, featuring re-imagined and classic hits. Instead of standalone promo packs (like the Japanese release), the Chinese edition cleverly packages special classic collection cards directly into themed blister packs.

  • Mewtwo & Mew Blister: Includes 1 Mewtwo card, 1 Mew card, and 5 booster packs.
  • Reshiram & Zekrom Blister: Includes 1 Reshiram card and 1 Zekrom card alongside 5 booster packs.
  • Shining Magikarp & Gyarados Blister: Includes a Shining Magikarp and a Dark Gyarados along with 5 booster packs.
  • Booster Boxes: Traditional Chinese booster boxes typically contain 16 packs (5 cards per pack).

The Golden Box

The flagship release of this anniversary is the limited-edition Golden Box, a premium collector’s item that features:

  • A Gold Pokéball card and a Gold Pikachu V card.
  • An exclusive 60-card holo deck.
  • Premium accessories including metal dice, synthetic leather cases (deck box, playmat, dice case), and a foil-stamped rubber playmat.
