Umbreon 30th Promo Card and the M6a Umbreon Card: Official Items So Far

The Umbreon 30th promo card question comes down to one official card: the M6a (M6A) “30th CELEBRATION” Japanese expansion pack, released September 16, 2026, features one Umbreon card in its “a day in the life” illustration group. Umbreon also appears in the Espeon/Umbreon Premium Deck Set and in Umbreon deck sleeves.

What is the Umbreon 30th promo card?

The Umbreon card the official pages describe is the one printed in the M6a 30th Celebration expansion pack. The official M6a page says one Umbreon card is featured in the “a day in the life” illustration group, and the page gives no card number or rarity for it, so this guide gives none either.

The wording “promo card” needs sorting out. The official 30th Celebration lineup does attach promo cards to its boxes and collections, and the Pokémon Company International lineup names them one by one. Those named promos are Nidorina, Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Alolan Exeggutor, Lucario, Sylveon ex, Greninja ex and Eevee, and the official Futuristic Box page adds Pikachu ex in the FUR version. The Umbreon card sits in the pack itself.

Around that card there are three more Umbreon items on the official pages: the Espeon/Umbreon Premium Deck Set, the Premium Gloss Umbreon deck sleeves, and a plain Umbreon sleeve design in the four-sleeve line. Each one is covered below with its date and price.

One related 30th Celebration product available now is the 30th CELEBRATION Premium Deck Set Espeon & Umbreon (Damaged Box). It is an unopened Japanese product with cosmetic damage to the outer packaging, sold as-is under our damaged-item terms, and the photos on that page are samples.

What are the key facts for Umbreon in 30th Celebration?

Umbreon shows up in three official places: the M6a pack, the Premium Deck Set and the deck sleeves. The table lists each with its Japanese name, date and price.

All three share one release date, September 16, 2026, which is also the date of the expansion pack worldwide. The prices are tax-included yen prices from the official product list.

Which Umbreon card is in the 30th Celebration expansion pack?

The M6a pack includes one Umbreon card as part of the “a day in the life” illustration group. The official press release separately says the expansion includes Pokémon shown during day and night.

The pack is a regular expansion product. It was released on September 16, 2026, worldwide at the same time, at 360 yen tax included. Each pack holds six kira cards inserted at random, and each pack includes one Pikachu card and one basic energy card with a special design by YOSHIROTTEN. According to the press release, the expansion contains only foil cards.

The press release adds that each booster pack includes one of 30 Pikachu rare cards and that 30 classic Pokémon return to the TCG. It also describes a new “Futuristic” rarity with visuals by YOSHIROTTEN. The M6a page uses the name FUR (Futuristic Rare) for that rarity and says it was introduced with Mewtwo ex and Mew ex.

For the wider set contents, see our 30th Celebration cards and contents guide.

What else does the M6a pack contain besides Umbreon?

The M6a page lists four groups of cards: 30 Pikachu variants, 30 special-spec historic cards, 8 special basic energy designs, and the “a day in the life” group that holds the Umbreon card.

Each of the 30 Pikachu variants is drawn by a different illustrator, and every pack includes a Pikachu card. The 30 historic cards are reprinted in a special spec from the 1996 first expansion onward. The basic energy cards carry the YOSHIROTTEN design work, and there are 8 designs in total.

The page does not say how many cards belong to the “a day in the life” group or which other Pokémon are in it. Only the Umbreon card is stated here.

Which promo cards does the 30th Celebration lineup name?

Six products name their promo cards: five in the Pokémon Company International lineup and the Futuristic Box on the Japanese site. Where a row says “or”, the product holds one of the two named cards, not both.

The press release says the expansion cards release September 16, 2026 at participating retailers worldwide. It also gives a digital date: the Pokémon TCG Live release starts September 15, 2026, 10 a.m. PDT.

Two of those promos belong to the same Eeveelution family as Umbreon: Sylveon ex in the Pokémon ex Box and Eevee in the Knock Out Collection. Espeon and Umbreon, the other two, are paired in the Premium Deck Set instead. Neither the press release nor the Japanese pages list a card for that set.

What does the Futuristic Box contain?

The 30th CELEBRATION FUTURISTIC BOX costs 27,500 yen tax included and has the release date September 16, 2026 (Wednesday). Its official page names a promo card, Pikachu ex in the FUR version, two cards in two types.

The official Futuristic Box page lists the contents as:

• Promo card “Pikachu ex” (FUR version), 2 cards (2 types)
• Pokémon Coins, 2
• Metal damage counter dice, 12
• Metal markers (Poison and Burn), 1 each
• Special deck sleeves, 1 set (64)
• Flip deck case, 1
• Special display frame, 1 set
• Special rubber playmat, 1 (half size)
• Flip damage counter case, 1
• Flip playmat case, 1

The box is sold only through Pokémon Center Online, though it may later be sold at Pokémon Centers and Pokémon Stores nationwide. Our Futuristic Box guide covers the box in more detail.

What are the Umbreon deck sleeves and Premium Deck Set?

They are the other official Umbreon products: a 6,200 yen deck set and a 990 yen sleeve pack, both dated September 16, 2026. The official product list shows four deck sleeve designs at 990 yen: Premium Gloss 30th CELEBRATION, Espeon, Umbreon, and No.30 Nidorina.

The Premium Gloss Umbreon sleeves are noted for Pokémon Center and Pokémon Center Online. The Premium Deck Set is also listed on the M6a page as a related product. Those pages give no card list for the deck set, so it should not be read as a source of any Umbreon promo.

The product list adds one more release for context: nine Card Sets at 1,200 yen each, dated October 16, 2026, in starter-trio variants such as Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle.

What is the release timeline for the Umbreon items?

Most Umbreon items share September 16, 2026, with the digital release one day earlier and the Card Sets a month later. The dates below come from the official pages.

The M6a page states that the pack was released worldwide at the same time. The Japanese-language product pages are the source for the Japanese edition, and the press release covers the lineup sold through participating retailers.

Can you play the Umbreon 30th card in Standard?

The official pages give a play rule only for the special-spec historic cards, not for the Umbreon card. Those 30 historic cards, reprinted from the 1996 first expansion onward, cannot be used in the current Standard regulation, but can be used in any regulation where their original versions are legal.

The same M6a page lists 30 Pikachu variant kira cards, each drawn by a different illustrator, and 8 special basic energy designs. Check the text printed on the physical card before you build a deck, because the page states no format rule for the Umbreon card itself.

What can you buy today while you follow the Umbreon 30th cards?

You can buy other Japanese sealed and graded products now. These are different sets, not Umbreon promos, and none is listed here as containing an Umbreon card.

The 30th Celebration rows are products from the same anniversary line as the Umbreon items.

How do shipping and payment work for Japanese sealed products?

Our shipping policy sets two FedEx options: standard shipping is FedEx International Connect Plus, usually 3-7 business days after dispatch, and expedited is FedEx International Priority, usually 2-5 business days. Both transit times are estimates only, and shipping cost is calculated automatically at checkout based on your delivery address.

Most orders are processed and shipped within 5 business days after PayPal or Wise payment has cleared. Business days exclude weekends and Japanese national holidays. FedEx cannot deliver to P.O. Boxes, so a physical shipping address is required at checkout. The shipping policy also states there is no minimum order amount or quantity, and that customs inspections and carrier events after handoff to FedEx can delay delivery.

All payments are made in Japanese yen. The payment methods page lists Wise bank transfer, PayPal, and credit or debit cards through PayPal (Visa, Mastercard, American Express and JCB, as offered by PayPal for your country and card). Wise bank transfer is the only method without the 5% payment processing fee.
