Jirachi has five verified Japanese printings since 2016, and one of them has been reprinted once. That’s a short list compared to most mythical Pokemon — which makes it a manageable one to actually document card by card.
This guide walks through every Japanese Jirachi print we’ve been able to verify, in release order: the 2016 Pokekyun Collection uncommon, the 2020 Amazing Rare from Legendary Heartbeat, the Wish Star print from 2018’s Dark Order and its 2019 reprint, and the 2022 Jirachi V from Time Gazer. We ship Japanese sealed product and graded singles out of Tokyo every week, and the one card in this lineup we currently carry — a PSA 10, 1st Edition copy of the 2016 Pokekyun print — is priced below against our own live listing. For a side-by-side look at Jirachi next to its fellow mythical Pokemon, see our Celebi & Jirachi mythical Pokemon guide; this article stays focused on Jirachi alone and traces its full Japanese print run.
Five Japanese Jirachi printings are documented in this guide, spanning 2016 to 2022 across five sets. The only one currently in our stock is a PSA 10, 1st Edition Jirachi from Pokekyun Collection [CP3 015/032], currently listed at ¥37,593 (~$231). The other four prints are documented here for identification — we don’t carry independent market pricing data for them.
Card data below is drawn from individually verified Japanese card listings as of August 2026. The one price quoted is our own current stock, converted at ¥163/USD; no third-party market prices are included for the other four printings.
Five Verified Japanese Jirachi Printings
Five printings, in release order:
| Carte | Number | Rarity | Série | Year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jirachi | CP3 015/032 | U | Pokekyun Collection | 2016 |
| Jirachi | SM8a 034/052 | R | Dark Order | 2018 |
| Jirachi | SM12a 090/173 | R | Tag All Stars | 2019 |
| Jirachi | S3a 050/076 | A | Legendary Heartbeat | 2020 |
| Jirachi V | S10D 025/067 | V | Time Gazer | 2022 |
Two of the five share the same card text: the Dark Order rare and its 2019 Tag All Stars reprint both use the same ability and the same illustrator. The other three — the 2016 Pokekyun uncommon, the 2020 Amazing Rare, and the 2022 V — are each distinct cards with their own artwork and effects. The sections below cover each in release order.
How Jirachi’s Card Design Shifted, 2016–2022
Line the five prints up by HP and type and a pattern shows up. The first four printings — Pokekyun Collection, Dark Order, its Tag All Stars reprint, and the Legendary Heartbeat Amazing Rare — all sit at 70 HP. Jirachi V in Time Gazer breaks from that pattern entirely at 180 HP.
Type is the more interesting shift. Jirachi launched as Psychic in the 2016 Pokekyun print, moved to Steel for both the Dark Order Wish Star card and its reprint plus the 2020 Amazing Rare, then returned to Psychic for the 2022 V. None of the five card texts in this guide explain that switch, and we haven’t found documentation of why it happened, so we’re noting it as an observation rather than an explained design choice.
Set size is worth noting too, since it puts each card number in context. Pokekyun Collection (CP3) runs to 32 cards, Legendary Heartbeat (S3a) to 76, Time Gazer (S10D) to 67, Dark Order (SM8a) to 52, and Tag All Stars (SM12a) to 173 — more than three times the size of any other set on this list, which is consistent with Tag All Stars functioning as a large crossover release rather than a standard-sized expansion.
The 2016 Original: Pokekyun Collection U [CP3 015/032]
Jirachi’s Japanese debut in this five-print run came in Pokekyun Collection (CP3), released January 2016 — one of the CP-numbered concept packs that ran alongside the mainline expansion series. It’s a straightforward card: 70 HP, Psychic type, Basic, printed at Uncommon (U), illustrated by kirisAki. The English-language counterpart is the Radiant Collection insert from Generations, card #RC13. For more on how the CP-numbered concept packs are structured as a category, see our Japanese concept packs (CP) guide, and for the full breakdown of this specific set, see our Pokekyun Collection CP3 guide.
This is the print we currently carry graded. Our copy is a PSA 10, 1st Edition Jirachi from CP3 015/032, currently listed at ¥37,593 (~$231).
Identifying the 1st Edition Pokekyun Print
1st Edition stamping is a real, documented feature of the CP-numbered concept pack series that Pokekyun Collection belongs to — it isn’t a claim unique to this listing. What we can’t independently verify from set-level card data is the 1st Edition status of any single physical copy; that’s an attribute of the individual card and, where graded, of the PSA label itself.
If you’re buying a raw copy and 1st Edition status matters to you, confirm it against the physical card stamp or a grading company’s label rather than a listing description alone. For a broader walkthrough of how 1st Edition marks work across Japanese sets, see our Japanese 1st Edition Pokemon cards guide.
The 2020 Amazing Rare: Legendary Heartbeat [S3a 050/076]
Legendary Heartbeat (S3a), released July 2020, gave Jirachi its Amazing Rare treatment — a full-art rarity tier the Sword & Shield era used for select Pokemon. This printing shifts Jirachi to Steel type at 70 HP, illustrated by Sanosuke Sakuma. Its ability, rendered on English-language card databases as roughly « Prophetic Dream, » lets you look at the top two cards of your deck while this card is in the Active Spot and take one into your hand. Its attack — described as « Amazing Star » in the same sources — lets you attach up to seven Basic Energy cards from your deck to your Pokemon in any way you like. The English-language counterpart is Vivid Voltage #119.
As with the attack and ability names throughout this guide, those English renderings come from card-database translations rather than confirmed official Japanese wording, so treat the names as descriptive rather than exact.
The Wish Star Print and Its 2019 Reprint
Dark Order (SM8a), released October 2018, carries the Jirachi print that saw the most reuse of the five covered here. It’s a 70 HP Steel Basic, printed at Rare (not a Prism Star card, despite the wish-granting theme), illustrated by HYOGONOSUKE. Its ability — approximated as « Wish Star » — works while this card is in the Active Spot: look at the top five cards of your deck, take a Trainer card from among them into your hand, and this Pokemon becomes Asleep. Its attack does roughly 30 damage. The English-language counterpart sits in the same family as Team Up #99.
The identical card — same ability, same attack, same illustrator — was reprinted in Tag All Stars (SM12a), released October 2019, at card number 090/173. A separate, higher-numbered print also exists in that same set, but its details weren’t independently confirmed in our research, so we’re not describing it here.
Jirachi V: Time Gazer [S10D 025/067]
Jirachi’s V card in this lineup comes from Time Gazer (S10D), released April 2022. At 180 HP, Psychic type, it’s a significant step up from the earlier Basic prints. Its ability, described in English-language sources as something like « Bridge of Wishes, » moves Basic Energy between your own Pokemon. Its attack does roughly 60 damage and puts both Active Pokemon to sleep. Illustrated by N-DESIGN Inc., the English-language counterpart is Astral Radiance #170. A higher-rarity SR print in the same set was noted in our research but not independently confirmed, so it isn’t detailed here.
This is the newest card in the lineup. If you’re specifically after this print, our Quick Order page is the most direct way to check whether we currently have a copy.

Foire aux questions
How many Japanese Jirachi Pokemon card printings are there?
This guide documents five: the 2016 Pokekyun Collection uncommon (CP3 015/032), the 2018 Dark Order Wish Star print (SM8a 034/052) and its 2019 Tag All Stars reprint (SM12a 090/173), the 2020 Amazing Rare from Legendary Heartbeat (S3a 050/076), and the 2022 Jirachi V from Time Gazer (S10D 025/067). A small number of additional prints and promos were noted during research but not independently confirmed, so they aren’t detailed here.
Is the CP3 015/032 Jirachi a 1st Edition card?
1st Edition stamping is a documented feature of the CP-numbered concept pack series this card belongs to. Whether a specific physical copy is 1st Edition is an attribute of that individual card, or of its grading label if it’s been graded — not something confirmed independently at the set-data level.
What is the Wish Star Jirachi card?
It’s the Rare-rarity Jirachi first printed in Dark Order (SM8a 034/052) in 2018 and reprinted with identical text and artwork in Tag All Stars (SM12a 090/173) in 2019. Its ability lets you look at the top five cards of your deck and take a Trainer card into your hand while this Pokemon is Active, putting it to sleep in the process.
Where can I buy a graded Japanese Jirachi Pokemon card?
We ship graded singles and sealed Japanese product worldwide from Tokyo. Our current graded Jirachi — a PSA 10, 1st Edition copy from Pokekyun Collection — is listed at ¥37,593. For other Jirachi printings or additional Japanese cards, use our Quick Order page to check current availability.
