What Is the Yu Nagaba Espeon Card (SV-P 066)?

The Yu Nagaba Espeon card is Espeon number 066/SV-P, a Japanese Pokémon Card Game promo whose illustrator is credited as YU NAGABA on the official card database page. The page footer links to the “YU NAGABA × Pokémon Card Game” collaboration, which ties the card to the artist’s name.

The number 066/SV-P and the rarity PROMO identify the card. It was handed out in the store and online campaign described in the next section. When you check a copy, look at three things: the name Espeon, the number 066/SV-P and the illustrator credit YU NAGABA. Those three details match the official database entry.

YU NAGABA drew all nine promo cards in this collaboration, and Espeon sits alongside its Eevee siblings in that run. If you want the wider story of the collaboration, our Yu Nagaba × Pokemon Cards collab guide covers it; this article stays on the Espeon card.

For buyers, the card appears in two forms: the raw promo as it was handed out, and the PSA 10 graded copy. Section 7 covers the graded version, and the PSA 10 Espeon SV-P 066 back order is the product page to open first if you want one.

How Did the Yu Nagaba × Pokémon Card Game Promo Campaign Work?

The promo campaign started on May 24, 2023 (a Wednesday) and gave one random promo card for every ¥1,000 (tax included) spent at Pokémon Center, Pokémon Store or Pokémon Center Online, according to the official announcement. The card you received was random, so getting the Espeon depended on the draw among the nine promo cards.

Rule What the official page says
Start date May 24, 2023 (Wednesday)
Trigger One random promo card per ¥1,000 (tax included) purchase
Where Pokémon Center, Pokémon Store, Pokémon Center Online
In-store limit Max 10 cards per person
Online limit Max 10 per checkout
Online start May 24 at 10:00
Lottery winners 1 card per item, or 4 cards for the Special BOX
Exclusions Pre-order and backorder items
End Ends when quantities run out, though it may be extended

Two details stand out. First, the limits (10 per person in store, 10 per online checkout) capped how many cards one buyer could take in a single visit or checkout. Second, the lottery route: Pokémon Center Online held lottery sales for the collaboration items, and a winner received one promo card per item won, or four for the Special BOX.

The online distribution began at 10:00 on May 24, the same date the in-store campaign started. The announcement also states that pre-order and backorder items were excluded, so those purchases did not count toward a card. The campaign ends when quantities run out, though the announcement says it may be extended.

The announcement names three places for the campaign: Pokémon Center, Pokémon Store and Pokémon Center Online. It gives the in-store limit and the online limit as separate rules, so a buyer shopping in a store and a buyer checking out online each followed their own cap of 10 cards.

What Does the Yu Nagaba Espeon Card Look Like and What Are Its Stats?

The Yu Nagaba Espeon is a Stage 1 Pokémon card with HP 110 and one attack, Psychic Beam, which deals 80 damage and confuses the opponent’s Active Pokémon, per the official card page. The card text shows Espeon as Pokédex No. 196, the “Sun Pokémon” (たいようポケモン in Japanese), measuring 0.9 m and weighing 26.5 kg.

Stat Value
Pokémon Espeon
Pokédex number 196
Category Sun Pokémon
Stage Stage 1 Evolution
HP 110
Height / weight 0.9 m / 26.5 kg
Attack Psychic Beam: 80 damage, confuses the opponent’s Active Pokémon
Weakness ×2
Resistance −30
Illustrator YU NAGABA

The illustration is credited to YU NAGABA, the artist named on all nine cards of the collaboration. The card lists a single attack, Psychic Beam, and its confusion effect applies to the opponent’s Active Pokémon. For comparison with the larger Espeon cards in section 6, this card’s HP is 110 and its attack deals 80 damage.

The official page also prints the weakness as ×2 and the resistance as −30. Those two lines, together with HP 110 and the 80-damage attack, are the full set of numbers on the card entry. The Pokédex entry (No. 196, Sun Pokémon, 0.9 m, 26.5 kg) is the flavor data shown on the card itself.

Which Eevee Evolution Promos Did Yu Nagaba Draw Alongside Espeon?

YU NAGABA drew nine promo cards in the collaboration: Eevee plus eight evolutions, with Espeon as the fifth in the official list. The official announcement names all nine, and the English names below follow the official Pokémon site.

# Japanese name (official list) English name
1 イーブイ Eevee
2 シャワーズ Vaporeon
3 サンダース Jolteon
4 ブースター Flareon
5 エーフィ Espeon
6 ブラッキー Umbreon
7 リーフィア Leafeon
8 グレイシア Glaceon
9 ニンフィア Sylveon

If you are tracking Espeon together with its siblings, our Eevee cards guide looks at the Yu Nagaba promos next to other Eevee-family cards, and the PSA 10 Eeveelutions guide compares graded Japanese cards across the family.

Because the distribution was random, a collector who wants the full run needs all nine cards, and the Espeon is one slot in that checklist. The list above is the official order from the announcement, so Espeon is the fifth name, between Flareon and Umbreon.

What Else Came With the Yu Nagaba Eevees Collaboration?

The collaboration also included three items released on May 24, 2023, plus a separate BEAMS collaboration released May 20 (a Saturday), all listed on the official announcement. The promo card campaign started on the same May 24 date as the three items.

Product Price (tax included) Release Details
Eevees Special BOX ¥4,800 May 24, 2023 Deck shield ×1 set (64 cards), deck case with 2 divider boards ×1, rubber playmat ×1, card box ×1
Eevees Collection File ¥1,980 May 24, 2023 9-pocket 4-ring card file ×1 and 9-pocket refills ×10; holds 180 cards
Eevees Display Frame ¥1,490 May 24, 2023 Display frame
YU NAGABA × Pokémon Card Game for BEAMS – May 20 (Saturday) BEAMS collaboration line

The official page states that the Special BOX cannot be used to play a game on its own, and the 64 cards in the contents list are a set of deck shields. The Collection File is a 9-pocket, 4-ring card file that holds 180 cards, and it comes with ten 9-pocket refills.

At the time of the announcement, Pokémon Center Online had already held lottery sales for the three items, and general sale dates were undecided. That is why the lottery rule in section 2 matters: a winner of the Special BOX received four promo cards, while a winner of the file or the frame received one.

How Does the Yu Nagaba Espeon Differ From Other Espeon Cards?

The Yu Nagaba Espeon differs from other Japanese Espeon cards in illustrator, rarity and source: it is a PROMO from a store campaign with HP 110, while the ex and EX cards below list HP between 170 and 270. The comparison uses the official card database pages.

Espeon-EX 045/171 Linked to THE BEST OF XY – Ayaka Yoshida 170

The Yu Nagaba card is a Stage 1 with HP 110 and a single 80-damage attack. By contrast, the SV8a Espeon ex cards are Stage 1 with HP 270, and the SV8a SAR 211/187 lists the attack Psycho Out at 160 damage. The XY9-B Espeon EX 084/080 is a Basic with HP 170, and the 043/040 card lists Sunshine Beat 30× on HP 260.

Illustrators differ across these prints: YU NAGABA for the promo, sui for the SAR, 5ban Graphics for the SV8a RR and for the 014/040 and 298/742 cards, Ryo Ueda for the SR, Ayaka Yoshida for the 035/080 and 045/171 cards, and REND for 043/040. The SV8a SAR 211/187 comes from the High Class Pack “Terastal Festival ex”, while the Yu Nagaba card came from the store campaign.

Three of the other cards are tied to named products on the official pages: 014/040 links to the 30th CELEBRATION Premium Deck Set (Espeon and Umbreon), 298/742 links to Start Deck 100 Battle Collection, and 045/171 links to THE BEST OF XY. The Yu Nagaba promo’s official page links to the YU NAGABA × Pokémon Card Game collaboration instead.

If you are choosing between prints, pick the Yu Nagaba promo when the artist or the nine-card Eeveelution set is the point, and pick an Espeon ex print when you want a card from a booster set or deck. Our guides to the Espeon ex SV8a SAR and XY9-B EX prints, the Espeon full art cards and the 30th anniversary Umbreon and Espeon cards go deeper on those.

Is the Yu Nagaba Espeon Available as a PSA 10 Card?

Yes, the Yu Nagaba Espeon is offered on our site as a PSA 10 graded card, under the name “PSA10 Espeon: PROMO [SV-P 066]”. PSA 10 is the Gem Mint grade from Professional Sports Authenticator, awarded to cards in flawless, gem mint condition, according to our product descriptions.

The product descriptions add one note on the slab itself: the PSA case may have minor scratches or marks on its surface. Read that line before you order, because it describes the case and not the card inside it.

The PSA 10 Espeon PROMO SV-P 066 is offered as a PSA 10 back order at ¥30,726, sourced to order. A separate product page, PSA10 Espeon (Yu Nagaba illustration) 066/SV-P (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order), covers the same card number.

Both pages describe the same card: Espeon No. 066/SV-P from the SV-P Promotional cards “YU NAGABA × Pokémon Card Game”. The back-order page lists the rarity as PROMO. For a wider view of graded Eevee-family cards, see our PSA 10 Eeveelutions guide.
