RGB Mew Explained: R/RGB, G/RGB and B/RGB — the 30th Celebration Secret Mew Trio (Release-Day Guide)

RGB Mew Explained: R/RGB, G/RGB and B/RGB — the 30th Celebration Secret Mew Trio (Release-Day Guide)

30th CELEBRATION (M6a) released worldwide on September 16, 2026, and outside its numbered 165-card checklist, three secret-rare Mew cards have reportedly been pulled from early-opened products: R/RGB, G/RGB and B/RGB, illustrated by YOSHIROTTEN. None of the three appears in the official card database, none is in the compiled 165-card list, and none is printed in the Elite Trainer Box’s card-list booklet. Per PokeBeach (report of September 12, 2026, updated September 15), the trio was pulled from early-opened 30th Celebration products and surfaced publicly through an internal Pokémon TCG Live update on September 15.

This guide walks through exactly what the RGB Mew cards are, how they surfaced, what’s official and what isn’t, which language copies have been pictured, what they’re asking for on release day, and how they sit alongside the set’s other Mew cards — the secret rares Mew ex SAR 129/103 and Mew ex FUR 135/103, plus the Classic Collection reprint Mew VMAX 163/103. Every claim about the RGB trio is attributed to PokeBeach; nothing here is presented as an official statement from The Pokémon Company.

Key Takeaways

Three secret Mew cards — R/RGB, G/RGB and B/RGB, illustrated by YOSHIROTTEN — were pulled from early-opened 30th Celebration products and surfaced in a Pokémon TCG Live update on September 15, per PokeBeach (report of September 12, updated September 15, 2026). They sit outside the /103 numbering and outside every official list, and their pull rate is unknown. On SNKRDUNK, release-day asks (September 16, 2026) ran ¥868,000 for R/RGB, ¥580,000 for G/RGB and ¥600,000 for B/RGB — dated asking prices, not sales. Our M6a 30th CELEBRATION Booster Box is currently listed as a pre-order at ¥25,000 (~$162) sealed, and graded Mew singles are browsable in our PSA10 collection.

What Are the RGB Mew Cards?

R/RGB, G/RGB and B/RGB are three secret-rare Mew cards from 30th CELEBRATION, one red, one green and one blue, all illustrated by YOSHIROTTEN — the same artist officially credited with the set’s two Futuristic Rare cards, Mewtwo ex 134/103 and Mew ex 135/103. Per PokeBeach, they are numbered out of “RGB” rather than out of /103, so they sit outside the set’s 165-card numbering (165 numbered cards plus eight Basic Energy, 173 in all; PokeBeach’s headline figure for the set is 176).

Mew 056/103 (main set, illustrator danciao) — the RGB Mew cards are not pictured here; no embeddable image of R/RGB, G/RGB or B/RGB exists in our sourced material.

Per PokeBeach, the three cards represent the original Pokémon Red, Green and Blue games in honour of the franchise’s 30th anniversary; red, green and blue are also the primary colours of light. Beyond identity, colour and illustrator, PokeBeach’s confirmation does not cover in-game text (HP, attacks or flavour text) for the three cards, so none is quoted here.

How the RGB Mew Cards Surfaced

Per PokeBeach’s report of September 12, 2026, 30th Celebration had begun reaching store shelves a bit early at some retailers, and on that day multiple fans pulled the three secret Mew cards from those early-opened products. PokeBeach reports that the RGB concept itself first leaked roughly two months earlier, when streamers reportedly opened early 30th Celebration products before their official release date; those early products, per PokeBeach, reportedly came from an unauthorized source within the distribution chain and may have been stolen.

PokeBeach updated its report on September 15, 2026 to note that the three Mew had since been revealed through an internal update to Pokémon TCG Live — a software-side reveal rather than an official Pokémon Company statement.

What’s Official, and What Isn’t

The official card database (pokemon-card.com) still returns 140 entries for M6a — the 103-card main set, the Classic Collection (136–165, with 151/152 as one entry) and the eight Basic Energy. The compiled AR/SAR/FUR block (104–135) is still not in that database, even though all 32 numbered secret rares have now been seen — the last five surfaced with release-day listings (SNKRDUNK, September 16, 2026). The RGB trio sits outside that discussion entirely: per PokeBeach, R/RGB, G/RGB and B/RGB are not in the official card database, not in the compiled 165-card list on our 30th CELEBRATION card list page, and not printed in the Elite Trainer Box’s own card-list booklet.

PokeBeach expects the cards to stay officially unacknowledged for months, explaining that Pokémon Japan traditionally does not officially reveal a set’s full secret-rare roster until the following set releases. Per PokeBeach, the pull rate for the three cards is unknown, and the cards are described only as “expected to be exceptionally rare” — a description, not a number.

The Copies Pictured: English, French and Japanese

PokeBeach’s report pictures specific language copies of each card: the R/RGB card in English and French, the G/RGB card in English and French, and the B/RGB card in English and Japanese.

Release-Day Japanese Asking Prices

Japanese copies of the RGB trio are listed on SNKRDUNK. The figures below are the lowest live asking prices as of September 16, 2026 — release day — not sold prices, and not a value for the cards. USD figures in this article convert at ¥154/USD, approximate.

Card Lowest ask, Sep 16, 2026 Listings
Mew R/RGB ¥868,000 (~$5,636) 9
Mew G/RGB ¥580,000 (~$3,766) 7
Mew B/RGB ¥600,000 (~$3,896) 4

For context, the set’s two numbered secret Mew ex cards had far lower release-day asks the same day: Mew ex FUR 135/103 at ¥22,222 (46 listings) and Mew ex SAR 129/103 at ¥9,300 (49 listings). All five figures are dated asking prices on a live marketplace, not sales — sellers set these prices, and they can move in either direction from here. This article does not forecast where any of them goes next.

How RGB Mew Relates to the Set’s Other Mew Cards

30th Celebration has more than one secret Mew slot, and it’s easy to conflate them. The RGB trio is separate from — and unaffected by — the set’s two numbered secret Mew ex cards, plus a Classic Collection Mew VMAX reprint. Here’s how the four Mew-related secret/reprint slots compare:

Card Numbering Status Illustrator Release-day ask (Sep 16, 2026)
Mew ex (SAR) 129/103 Compiled from official images; not yet in the official database Unpublished (regular print by aky CG Works) ¥9,300
Mew ex (FUR) 135/103 Compiled from official images; not yet in the official database Officially YOSHIROTTEN ¥22,222
Mew VMAX (Classic Collection) 163/103 Official database (marked “C”, not Standard-legal) 5ban Graphics No dated marketplace figure in this update
Mew R/RGB R/RGB (outside /103) Not in the official database, the 165-card list, or the ETB booklet YOSHIROTTEN ¥868,000
Mew G/RGB G/RGB (outside /103) Not in the official database, the 165-card list, or the ETB booklet YOSHIROTTEN ¥580,000
Mew B/RGB B/RGB (outside /103) Not in the official database, the 165-card list, or the ETB booklet YOSHIROTTEN ¥600,000
Mew VMAX 163/103, Classic Collection reprint, 30th CELEBRATION (M6a)
Mew VMAX 163/103, Classic Collection reprint (illustrator 5ban Graphics) — a separate Mew slot from the SAR, FUR and RGB cards; the RGB cards are not pictured here.

What You Can Verify — and What Nobody Can

What you can check against PokeBeach’s reporting: the illustrator (YOSHIROTTEN, matching the set’s official FUR credit), the three-colour numbering scheme (R/RGB, G/RGB, B/RGB), the languages pictured so far (English, French and Japanese across the three cards), and the dated SNKRDUNK asking prices with their listing counts, all covered above. Those are documented, attributed data points.

What nobody can verify yet: an official pull rate, since The Pokémon Company has published none and PokeBeach reports it as unknown; a timeline for official acknowledgement, since PokeBeach expects the cards to stay unacknowledged for months; and verified third-party population or grading data for any specific listing you’re considering — this update contains none. None of this is a reason to distrust PokeBeach’s reporting — it’s simply the difference between what’s been documented and what The Pokémon Company itself has said, which so far is nothing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the RGB Mew cards officially confirmed by The Pokemon Company?

No. Per PokeBeach (report of September 12, 2026, updated September 15), three secret Mew cards — R/RGB, G/RGB and B/RGB, illustrated by YOSHIROTTEN — were pulled from early-opened 30th Celebration products and surfaced through an internal Pokemon TCG Live update on September 15. The Pokemon Company has made no public statement about them, and PokeBeach expects that to remain the case for months.

What do R/RGB, G/RGB and B/RGB mean?

Per PokeBeach, the three cards represent the original Pokemon Red, Green and Blue games in honour of the franchise’s 30th anniversary. Red, green and blue are also the primary colours of light.

How did the RGB Mew cards surface?

Per PokeBeach, they were pulled from 30th Celebration products that reached some retailers early, with multiple fans reporting pulls on September 12, 2026. The concept first leaked roughly two months earlier when streamers opened early products that PokeBeach says reportedly came from an unauthorized source within the distribution chain. The three cards were then revealed publicly through an internal Pokemon TCG Live update on September 15, 2026.

What is the pull rate for the RGB Mew cards?

Unknown. PokeBeach reports the pull rate as unknown and describes the three cards only as “expected to be exceptionally rare” — a description, not a published number.

How much are the RGB Mew cards asking for on release day?

On SNKRDUNK, the lowest asking prices as of September 16, 2026 were ¥868,000 for R/RGB (9 listings), ¥580,000 for G/RGB (7 listings) and ¥600,000 for B/RGB (4 listings). These are dated asking prices on a live marketplace, not sold prices or a value for the cards.

How do the RGB Mew cards relate to Mew ex SAR 129, Mew ex FUR 135 and Mew VMAX 163?

They’re separate slots. Mew ex SAR 129/103 and Mew ex FUR 135/103 are numbered secret rares compiled from official images (not yet in the official database); Mew VMAX 163/103 is an official-database Classic Collection reprint. The three RGB cards sit entirely outside the /103 numbering and outside every official and compiled list for the set.
