25th ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION (S8a) released on Friday, October 22, 2021. The official page describes the set as 全28種類 — 28 kinds of card; the official database carries 25 numbered entries, 001/028 through 025/028, plus 8 basic Energy prints with no number on their pages. Each pack cost ¥297 tax included and held 5 holo cards, one of them a basic Energy card.
Card 017/028, the last of four consecutive cards tracing the Alola region’s Cosmog line, is Lunala — and it’s one of the cards the official product page calls out by name. This guide starts with that set-level context, then moves into Lunala’s own card text, its place in the evolution chain, and where else the species shows up, before covering what our store currently lists.
Lunala 017/028 is a Psychic-type Stage 2 Pokémon with 160 HP, illustrated by kirisAki, evolving from Cosmoem at 015/028. It has two attacks: Lunatic Pain, which doubles damage counters already on opposing Pokémon, and Psyche Bullet, a 130-damage attack that also hits the Bench. This single card isn’t listed on our site at the moment, but our S8A-25th Anniversary Collection Booster Box is currently listed at ¥67,200 (~$436) (September 17, 2026).
25th ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION and Card 017/028
The official product page states the set’s finish once, for all 28 kinds of card at once, verbatim: 「カードはすべてキラカード。全28種類のカードから、ランダムで5枚のカードを封入。」 — our rendering: every card is a holo card, with 5 cards inserted at random from the 28 kinds in the set. Lunala sits at 017/028, the highest-numbered card in the set’s four-card Alola evolution run and one of the cards the official product page names directly — alongside Lugia, Groudon, Dialga, Reshiram, Xerneas and Zacian V.
The official page does not state how many packs make up a booster box, and the database prints no per-card finish note beyond the set-wide line above.
The same page announced a companion product for October 22, 2021: the 25th ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION スペシャルセット at ¥1,188 tax included, released the same day through convenience stores. The 25th ANNIVERSARY GOLDEN BOX (official MSRP ¥17,600, tax included) was announced on the same page but did not release on that date — its October 22 date was cancelled on October 4, 2021, and it was sold instead by Pokémon Center Online lottery from October 4, 2021, with shipping around winter 2021.
Lunala’s Card Text
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Card number | 017/028 |
| JP name | ルナアーラ |
| Type | Psychic |
| HP | 160 |
| Stage | Stage 2 (2進化) |
| Illustrator | kirisAki |
| Weakness | Darkness (×2) |
| Resistance | Fighting (−30) |
| Retreat | Colorless Colorless |
The database’s Pokédex panel reads (verbatim JP): 「No.792 がちりんポケモン / 高さ：4.0 m 重さ：120.0 kg / 異世界に 通じる 穴 から 未知の 力や 生命を この 世界に 呼び寄せることも ある。」 — our rendering: National Pokédex No. 792, the Moone Pokémon, height 4.0 m, weight 120.0 kg; it can summon unknown power and life into this world through a hole leading to another dimension.
Lunala’s first attack, [Colorless][Colorless] “Lunatic Pain” (our rendering of ルナティックペイン), reads verbatim: 「相手のポケモン全員に、それぞれのっているダメカンの数が2倍になるように、ダメカンをのせる。」 — our rendering: put damage counters on each of your opponent’s Pokémon so that the number of damage counters on it is doubled. Its second attack, [Psychic][Colorless][Colorless] “Psyche Bullet” (our rendering of サイコバレット), does 130 damage and reads verbatim: 「相手のベンチポケモン1匹にも、30ダメージ。［ベンチは弱点・抵抗力を計算しない。］」 — our rendering: this attack also does 30 damage to 1 of your opponent’s Benched Pokémon (don’t apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon).
Lunatic Pain prints no damage figure of its own; what it does is double whatever damage counters an opponent’s Pokémon already carries, which means it does nothing to an untouched Pokémon. Psyche Bullet is the conventional option: 130 damage to the Active Pokémon plus 30 to one Benched Pokémon, without Weakness or Resistance applied on the Bench.
The Alola Legendary Line in This Set
The database’s own evolution panel for Lunala lists, top to bottom: 「ソルガレオGX / ルナアーラGX || ルナアーラ / ソルガレオ || コスモウム || コスモッグ」 — the same panel text printed on Solgaleo’s own page, confirming both Stage 2 forms share the same chain back down to Cosmog. Cosmog at 014/028 evolves into Cosmoem at 015/028, which can then become either Solgaleo at 016/028 or this card, Lunala, at 017/028.
All four cards in this line are illustrated by kirisAki. At 160 HP, Lunala runs slightly lower than Solgaleo’s 170, though both Stage 2 forms share the same retreat cost of two Colorless energy. Lunala’s Weakness to Darkness and Resistance to Fighting differ from Solgaleo’s Weakness to Fire and Resistance to Grass — each Stage 2 form keeps the typing set by its own printed type. See our Solgaleo 016/028 guide for the other Stage 2 branch, and our Cosmoem 015/028 guide for the card this one evolves from.
Lunala Beyond S8a
Lunala is not among the 25 cards in the official S8a-P promo pack checklist, which reproduces cards dated from 1996 through 2017 rather than anything from this set’s own line.
The Golden Box doesn’t help either: its S8a-G subset is 16 database entries built around Pikachu — Pikachu V, Pikachu, Raichu, Pikachu VMAX, Item cards, Supporters and a Basic Lightning Energy — with no Lunala among them.
Lunala appears again in 30th CELEBRATION (M6a)’s main set, inside the 064–066 block it shares with Cosmog and Cosmoem, released worldwide on September 16, 2026. For every other Japanese Lunala printing, see our Lunala Japanese cards guide and our combined Solgaleo & Lunala card guide.
What We List for the S8a Box and Lunala 017/028
For a collector working the checklist down to 017/028, the position is simple: the card itself is not listed on our site at the moment, so it goes through 快速訂購, while the sealed box that contains it is listed.
Where to Buy
Our S8A-25th Anniversary Collection Booster Box is currently listed at ¥67,200 (~$436) (September 17, 2026), and it’s the only route on our site that can produce 017/028. A 快速訂購 request is how to ask for the single itself.
