Santa Cruz Skateboards x Pokémon TCG: 30 Blind-Bag Decks Drop October 17

Santa Cruz Skateboards is marking 30 years of Pokémon TCG with a full collection of blind-bag decks, and the official drop date is locked: October 17, 2026, worldwide, at 9am EST / 6am PST.

The headline is the blind bag itself. Each sealed bag holds one randomly assorted 8" x 31.6" variant deck, with artwork pulled from 1 of 30 iconic Pokémon TCG cards. Santa Cruz says the card art stays under wraps until release, and every deck ships with a Limited Edition Pokémon Player's Guide booklet showing all 30 designs. The designs lean on the cards themselves, with Energy types and character themes shaping each graphic.

Chasers are built in. Three extra glitter gold foil variants feature multi-card collages of Global versions of Pokémon TCG cards, and each of those is capped at 500 worldwide. Apparel and griptape round out the collection.

Santa Cruz has not published pricing on the collection page yet, and there is no live product listing, so this is an upcoming drop rather than something you can cart today. The brand has a reminder sign-up open on the Pokémon landing page ahead of release. Expect the foil variants to be the ones that vanish first.
