Pokémon 30th Anniversary Release Plans

Celebrating Pokémon and the community that makes it all possible.

The Pokémon 30th anniversary release is almost here, and Rocket City Toys is celebrating by putting our players and customers first! With limited product available, our release process is designed to recognize the people who support our store and help our Pokémon community grow.

First Up: Our Pokémon Players

Players who have attended two or more of our Saturday morning Pokémon play events in 2026 will receive an email inviting them to submit a wishlist of items from this release.

We will fulfill wishlists in attendance order, beginning with our most frequent players and working down the list as inventory allows. Submitting a wishlist does not guarantee every requested item.

Our Saturday morning play events are FREE to attend! Participation helps grow our community and increase our product allocation, which means more products we can offer our players and customers. It’s a win for everyone!

Next: Our Customer Lottery

After player bundles have been allocated, our remaining inventory will be offered for purchase through a lottery.

Anyone who has made an in-store or online purchase with Rocket City Toys during 2026 is eligible to enter. We will draw live, beginning with the highest-priced items and working down through the remaining inventory. Selection provides the opportunity to purchase the allocated item—it is not a product giveaway.

Lottery entry details, the live drawing schedule, and purchase instructions will be shared ahead of the drawing.

Thank You for Being Part of Our Community

Whether you spend Saturday mornings playing with us, shop in our store, or support us online, you help make Rocket City Toys possible. This release is an opportunity to show our appreciation for both our players and our customers.

We couldn’t do this without you, and we’re excited to celebrate 30 years of Pokémon together!
