If you thought the Pokémon 151 hype was over, think again! We are excited to share that a brand-new 151 product, the Blooming Waters Premium Collection, is set to launch in February 2025 across the U.S, Europe, and other regions. This collection will feature an exciting selection of goodies, including 12 booster packs from the popular 151 set, four promo cards, a jumbo card, and a code card.
Originally released in September 2023, the Pokémon 151 set was a smash hit with fans. Now, nearly a year and a half later, this new Premium Collection seems like a final opportunity for collectors to dive back into the 151 universe and grab those beloved booster packs. It's not uncommon for post-release products like this to appear, giving fans another chance to expand their collections.
While the exact meaning behind the name Blooming Waters is still a mystery, fans are speculating it could be a reference to iconic Pokémon like Venusaur and Blastoise. Venusaur's connection to blooming and Blastoise's water-based abilities might be hints, but we’ll have to wait for more details...
We’re expecting a full reveal of the Blooming Waters Premium Collection in December, so keep your eyes peeled for updates!
In recent news, a reprint of the set has been announced, particularly in Japan, where new booster boxes will be released in December 2024. This reprint is set to restock both Japanese Pokémon Centers and various retailers. Although the original release of 151 created immense hype, the upcoming reprint is giving fans another chance to grab the coveted cards, possibly at more affordable prices due to increased availability. For collectors in Japan, it’s clear that the 151 excitement isn’t slowing down anytime soon!
