All 30 historic cards in 30th Celebration’s reprint block are now officially confirmed, and one of them is a GX — a reprint that is not legal in the current Standard format. Pikachu & Zekrom GX returns as 160/103, and it’s the only Tag Team GX confirmed in the set.
This guide covers what the official card database and 30th.pokemon-card.com product page say about 160/103: its card text, illustrator, where it sits in the set’s now-complete numbering, what its original printing was, and how the unofficial price predictions for it compare to what similar Zekrom and GX-era singles are currently listed at. 30th Celebration (M6a) released in Japan on 2026-09-16; every yen figure here beyond the printed MSRP and live store listings is still an unofficial prediction rather than a settled transaction price for 160/103 itself, which isn’t listed on our site as an individual single at the moment.
Pikachu & Zekrom GX 160/103 is a confirmed 30th Celebration (M6a) reprint of the Sun & Moon—Team Up GX 33/181, illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita and officially not legal in current Standard play. It has no printed rarity tier of its own within the set and no official price yet — snkrdunk’s Aug 29 2026 prediction places it at an unofficial ¥3,500〜 market estimate. Our own graded Pikachu & Zekrom GX 031/095 RR single is sold out at the time of this update; the M6a 30th Celebration Booster Box is currently listed as a pre-order at ¥25,000 (Sealed) — the No Shrink option is sold out at the time of this update.
- 30th Celebration (M6a) released in Japan on September 16, 2026; the reprint block’s numbers and illustrators (confirmed September 9, 2026) are unchanged.
- All 32 of M6a’s secret rares (104–135) have now been seen, though that separate block still isn’t in the official card database — not relevant to 160/103’s own reprint-block numbering, which was already fully confirmed.
- Store state: PSA10 Reshiram & Zekrom GX 036/049 RR is currently listed at ¥17,472 (~$113); the M6a box’s No Shrink option is sold out at the time of this update.
- No release-day marketplace figure exists yet for 160/103 itself; the snkrdunk prediction below remains an unofficial, pre-release estimate.
- Full card list: every card of the set with its official image, in number order — 30th CELEBRATION (M6a) card list (all 173 cards).
Prices below are converted at ¥154/USD for September 16, 2026 figures (¥159/USD for figures carried over from this article’s original publication) unless a live listing is quoted, in which case its own conversion is used. Yen figures for confirmed store stock are live listed prices as of September 16, 2026; every prediction figure for 160/103 is an unofficial third-party estimate made before release and is labelled as such.
What Is 160/103 in 30th Celebration?
30th Celebration (M6a) is the Pokemon Trading Card Game’s Japanese 30th-anniversary set, released 2026-09-16 at ¥360 per pack (tax-in), with six kira cards per pack and a box containing 20 packs at ¥7,200. Alongside brand-new secret-rare chase cards, the set carries a dedicated block of historic reprints — the official product page states: “ポケモンカードゲーム30周年を記念し、歴史を象徴するカード30枚が特別仕様で登場！” (“To commemorate the TCG’s 30th anniversary, 30 cards symbolic of its history return in special format.”)
Pikachu & Zekrom GX carries the set number 160/103 and is now listed in the official card database (published September 9, 2026), illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita — the same artist credited for the block’s Pikachu (136/103) and Charizard (137/103) reprints.

Card Text and Attacks
The Japanese card text, as transcribed by Japanese aggregator snkrdunk (updated 2026-08-29), carries the pair’s two signature attacks:
| Attack | Damage | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| フルドライブ (Full Drive) | 150 | Attach up to 3 Lightning Energy from your deck to 1 of your Pokemon. Shuffle your deck afterward. |
| タッグボルトGX (Tag Bolt GX) | 200 | If this Pokemon has 3 or more extra Lightning Energy attached, also do 170 damage to 1 of your opponent’s Benched Pokemon. Bench damage ignores Weakness and Resistance. GX attacks are limited to once per game. |
That’s the same two-attack structure GX cards from the Sun & Moon era are known for: a set-up attack that loads Energy, and a GX finisher that punishes having done so. HP is not confirmed on any source we’ve checked for the reprint and is not stated here.
The Original: Team Up GX 33/181
160/103’s source card is Pikachu & Zekrom-GX 33/181 from the English-language Sun & Moon—Team Up set — named in official EN news coverage of the reprint, and matching aggregator TCGScreener and PokeBeach’s set-reveal coverage.
Fan sites (PokeBeach, June 2026) describe the reprint treatment applied across the whole 30-card block as a Pikachu stamp with special holofoil finishing, distinct from the card’s original printing — the official page does not describe this stamp in text, only in the product images, so treat the stamp description as fan-site reporting rather than an official spec.
Where 160/103 Sits in the Reprint Block
30th Celebration’s base set runs to 103 non-secret cards, with the last three (101–103) being Trainer cards. Everything above 103/103 is a secret. As of September 16, 2026, all 30 cards in the historic reprint block (136–165) are listed in the official card database with confirmed numbers and illustrators. A representative slice, alongside 160/103:
| Card | Number | Illustrator | Original printing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pikachu | 136/103 | Mitsuhiro Arita | Base Set (1996 JP, reported) |
| Charizard | 137/103 | Mitsuhiro Arita | 1996 first Expansion Pack (official caption) |
| Shining Celebi | 141/103 | Hironobu Yoshida | Neo Destiny (reported) |
| “Crystal” Lugia | 142/103 | Naoyo Kimura | Aquapolis (reported) |
| Dark Tyranitar | 144/103 | Nakaoka | Team Rocket Returns (reported) |
| Uxie | 148/103 | Ken Sugimori | DP era (reported) |
| N | 153/103 | Ken Sugimori | Black & White era (reported) |
| Solgaleo GX | 158/103 | PLANETA | Sun & Moon (reported) |
| Pikachu & Zekrom GX | 160/103 | Mitsuhiro Arita | Team Up 33/181 (official EN news names it) |
| Mew VMAX | 163/103 | 5ban Graphics | Fusion Strike era (reported) |
| Arceus VSTAR | 164/103 | 5ban Graphics | Brilliant Stars era (reported) |
| Magikarp | 165/103 | Shinji Kanda | Paldea Evolved (reported) |
The names, numbers and illustrators for all 30 reprints are now official; the “original printing” attribution stays labelled “reported” (from PokeBeach/Bill’s Archive) except for 137 and 160, which are named directly in official captions or EN news. For the complete 30-card table, see our full 30th Celebration reprints list; for a card-by-card look at another confirmed reprint from this same block, see our Charizard 137/103 reprint guide.
Officially, none of the special-format reprints in this block are legal outside the format their original card is legal in: “特別仕様で再登場したカードはいずれも現行のスタンダードレギュレーションでは使用できません。元となったカードが使用できるレギュレーションでは使うことができます。” (Special-format reprinted cards are not usable in current Standard regulation; they can be used in whichever regulation the original card is legal in.)
Unofficial Price Outlook
Japanese pull-rate aggregator snkrdunk publishes non-official market and buy-back predictions for M6a’s known hit cards. For 160/103 (updated 2026-08-29), that unofficial prediction is ¥3,500〜 market estimate / ¥2,500 buy-back estimate. A separate Japanese price tracker (price-base) shows the card as still awaiting data as of 2026-08-30. Neither number is a transaction price — no per-card sale for 160/103 has been reported yet.
For context, 160/103’s ¥3,500〜 prediction sits well below the set’s SAR and FUR secret-rare chase-card tier, closer to the set’s mid-tier reprints like Dark Tyranitar (¥1,000〜) than its headline hits.
One real, dated figure does exist for the sealed box these reprints come from: on SNKRDUNK the lowest asking price for a sealed M6a box fell from ¥47,200 on September 1 to ¥28,200 on September 10 and ¥17,500 on release day, September 16, 2026 (99+ listings) — still about 2.4× the ¥7,200 MSRP, as release-day listings multiplied. That’s a live seller ask for the sealed box, not a per-card price for 160/103.
Pull rates for M6a overall remain officially unpublished — the product page states only that each pack guarantees one Pikachu card and one basic Energy card, with no stated ratio for anything else. Treat any per-box hit-rate figure you see elsewhere as reader speculation, not data.
The Wider Zekrom & GX Family
160/103 isn’t the only Zekrom-linked card worth knowing about. Three PSA10-graded singles cover different eras of the same character pairing — current stock and pricing for each is shown below:
The Pikachu & Zekrom GX 031/095 RR is the same character pairing as 160/103, from a separate Japanese printing rather than the 30th Celebration reprint. The Reshiram & Zekrom GX is Zekrom’s other Tag Team partner card from the same GX era. The Zekrom ex SAR from Black Bolt (SV11B) is a modern Special Art Rare Zekrom — a reminder that a reprint’s predicted price and a graded SAR’s market price are two very different things and shouldn’t be read as comparable products, even where their stock status differs.
