The best October Prime Day deals on Pokémon: Score fresh price drops on the 30th Celebration expansion

Table of Contents

Amazon’s October Prime Day has reached its second and final day, and there are still tons of Pokémon deals across the trading card game, Nintendo Switch games, Lego, and plenty more. There are some lower prices on the 30th Celebration expansion since the sale began — including the still $159.99 Elite Trainer Box invite listing, along with the Perfect Order Booster Bundles being back under $45.

Prime Big Deal Days ends tonight, Oct. 7, so there isn’t much time left to shop. That said, we'll be continuously updating these Pokémon deals, our separate selection of trading card deals, and our overall very best Prime Day deals across the whole sale. Keep these guides bookmarked to stay up to date with just a couple of clicks each.

Grab the 30th Celebration ETB for close to market price

Since Pokémon's 30th Celebration expansion came out, the ETB has especially been up and down in price, but you can now once again submit an invite request to buy it for $159.99 this Prime Day — only just over $11 above market price.

Another 30th Celebration Display Box at over $30 off

If you're the type of Pokémon collector who wants to appreciate the artwork as much as the cards themselves, this deal on the Japanese version of the 30th Celebration expansion’s display box is worth a look.

The 20-pack box is on sale for $259, down from $310, for a savings of $51.

Mashable Trend Report

English 30th Celebration booster packs are currently listed on TCGplayer for about $13.48 each, which would cost $269.60 for 20 packs. That means the Japanese display box is still a solid option for collectors who specifically want the sealed Japanese product and its distinct card treatment.

Best for: Collectors who want a sealed Japanese 30th Celebration display box rather than loose English packs.

One of the few Pokémon Lego sets on sale

The 587-piece Lego Pokémon Eevee set is a posable display piece designed for adult builders. Unlike static figures, the ears, head, limbs, and angled tail are fully adjustable, so you can change up how it sits on your shelf. This is now back to its all-time low price for listings directly from Amazon (confirmed by the price tracker camelcamelcamel), making it a good time to grab it now rather than waiting to see if it drops further during the main sale.

Best for: Adult LEGO builders, Pokémon collectors, and gifts under $50.

Note: Eevee is one of the few sets in the Lego Pokémon lineup receiving a decent discount during Prime Big Deal Days, but we've listed the most popular sets below so you can keep an eye on them if Amazon drops prices during the event.
