Chikorita has been quietly collecting Japanese prints for over a decade — a common-rarity leaf on a common-rarity card, in set after set, without ever needing a secret-rare slot to stay in circulation. Then October 2026 gives it something new: a foil full-art promo, the first print we have verified in that treatment.
The prints we have verified span nine Japanese sets and eras, from a 2015 XY-block common through to a 2025 Mega Symphonia reprint, plus three promotional issues. One of them — a PokéKyun Collection (CP3) copy graded PSA 10 — is currently listed on our site.
Its newest print is the foil full-art promo numbered 104/M-P, arriving in 30th CELEBRATION Card Set 2 alongside Cyndaquil and Totodile. That set is sold on our site only inside the all-9-types bundle pre-order, which opens September 8, 2026 at 18:00 JST and ships on or after October 17, 2026 — sold as a separate order from anything else in your cart.
Our listed PSA10 Chikorita C :1ED [CP3 001/032] is currently listed at ¥38,174 (~$240). Chikorita’s newest print is the 2026 30th CELEBRATION foil full-art promo (104/M-P), on our site listed only inside the 30th CELEBRATION Card Set All 9 Types bundle. For the Johto-trio set on its own, see our 30th CELEBRATION Card Set 2 guide.
The 30th CELEBRATION Card Set All 9 Types bundle opens for pre-order on September 8, 2026 at 18:00 JST — all nine starter sets in one order, currently listed at ¥25,000, ships from Tokyo on or after October 17, 2026, sold as a separate order.
Pre-orders for the 30th CELEBRATION Card Set All 9 Types bundle are open now — all nine starter sets in one order, currently listed at ¥25,000, ships from Tokyo on or after October 17, 2026, sold as a separate order. Pre-order the bundle →
Early Era: XY9, XY Promos and PokéKyun Collection
Chikorita’s earliest verified Japanese prints sit inside the XY block: a single common-rarity card, a companion promotional issue with no stated release date, and a 2016 concept-pack reprint that is currently listed on our site.
XY9 Rage of the Broken Heaven (2015)
Card number 001 in Rage of the Broken Heaven (XY9), released 11 December 2015, is a Common (C) illustrated by Akira Komayama — the same illustrator credited on the XY Promotional Cards issue (XYP 222).
CP3 PokéKyun Collection (2016) — Our Listed PSA 10
PokéKyun Collection (CP3), released 29 January 2016, carries Chikorita as card 001/032, a Common illustrated by Sanosuke Sakuma. This is the print behind our listed graded copy: PSA10 Chikorita C :1ED [CP3 001/032], currently listed at ¥38,174 (~$240).

Modern Reprints: Super Burst Impact to Mega Symphonia
Chikorita’s prints continue across three separate Japanese eras — a 2018 Sun & Moon set with two printings, a Sun & Moon promotional issue, a 2025 starter-deck box product, and a 2025 Mega-era set — all at Common rarity where verified.
SM8 Super Burst Impact (2018)
Super Burst Impact (SM8), released 7 September 2018, carries two separate Chikorita commons: number 002, illustrated by Aya Kusube, and number 003, illustrated by sowsow. A Mega Promotional Cards issue (MP 001), illustrated by Makura Tami, and a Sun & Moon Promotional Cards issue (SMP 373), illustrated by kirisAki, are among Chikorita’s other promotional prints.
MC Starter Decks 100 Battle Collection (2025)

M1S Mega Symphonia (2025)

Our search covered every Chikorita result on Limitless TCG’s Japanese card index, and each row above was opened and confirmed individually. No Neo Genesis-era or SoulSilver Collection Japanese print surfaced in that search, so we are not asserting anything about those.
The 30th CELEBRATION Promo (2026)
Chikorita’s newest Japanese print is a foil full-art promo, numbered 104/M-P, per Japanese media reporting and the official image numbering. It belongs to 30th CELEBRATION Card Set 2, the Johto-starter entry in a nine-set release that pairs each region’s first-partner trio with its own promos.
Each of the nine sets in the release — including Set 2 — contains the same fixed contents: 3 foil full-art promo cards (one per trio member), 2 randomised booster packs of the 30th CELEBRATION expansion (6 팩당 카드), and 1 paper card stand that holds 3 cards.
The Japanese release date for the card sets is 16 October 2026. On our site, the way to secure Set 2 is the 30th CELEBRATION Card Set All 9 Types bundle, currently listed at ¥25,000 (~$157). Pre-orders open September 8, 2026 at 18:00 JST and ship from Tokyo on or after October 17, 2026, sold as a separate order from anything else in your cart. Chikorita’s promo is not listed as an individual product — it comes only inside the nine-set bundle.
Chase Prints and What Makes Them Collectible
Across the prints we have verified, Chikorita has not carried a higher rarity tier such as AR, SAR, SR or CHR in any Japanese set we checked. Five of its nine other verified prints are confirmed Common (C); rarity is not stated in the source we checked for the remaining four — XYP 222, SMP 373, MP 001 and MC 016. Three of those four — XYP 222, SMP 373 and MP 001 — are promotional issues rather than set prints.
That leaves the 2026 30th CELEBRATION promo (104/M-P) as the clear outlier: it is the first Chikorita print we have verified in a foil full-art promo treatment, distributed as one of a fixed set of three promos per card set rather than a random pull. For a card that has otherwise carried Common rarity wherever a rarity is stated, across nine Japanese sets and eras, that alone sets the 2026 promo apart from the rest of Chikorita’s Japanese prints.
