Pokémon TCG Celebrations ETB Promo Revealed: Greninja Star

The Pokémon TCG has revealed the full contents of their Celebrations Elite Trainer Box. Celebrations is the highly-anticipated 25th Anniversary Set which will include a 25-card set of all holographic offerings and a 25-card subset featuring reprints of popular cards from the past quarter-century. In addition to all of this, the Celebrations products will include SWSH Black Star Promos that bring back retired, classic mechanics such as Lv.X, Dark and Light Pokémon, trainer-specific Pokémon, and more. We knew most of what would appear in the Celebrations Elite Trainer Box, but the major new reveal here is the artwork for the promo card: the Greninja Star.
