Common questions
When is the next Pokémon TCG set released in Australia?
30th Celebration: Booster Bundle & Mini Tins is scheduled for 2 October 2026 in Australia.
Do Australian release dates differ from the US?
Usually no. Recent Pokémon TCG sets have launched simultaneously worldwide, and the 30th Celebration set was the first fully simultaneous global TCG launch.
Where can I preorder new sets in Australia?
EB Games typically opens the most structured preorder programme, with specialist stores close behind. Major chains such as Kmart, BIG W and Target tend to list closer to release day instead.
