Exciting news for Pokémon TCG competitors and collectors: the highly anticipated “Celebration Fanfare” promo card for the 2025 season has now been officially showcased! This exclusive reward continues its tradition as one of the most sought-after commemorative cards in organized play.

How to Get the 2025 Promo

  • Eligibility: In Japan, any player who reaches a minimum of 30 Championship Points (CP) during the 2024–2025 Championship Series will have this card delivered to them by mail. If you’re striving for this milestone, remember you have until August 31, 2025 to accumulate the necessary points.
  • Purpose: The card is both a badge of competitive achievement and a collector’s gem, only attainable through tournament play over the season.

About the Card

  • Card Name: Celebration Fanfare — Trainer: Stadium
  • Effect: Once per turn, the player may heal 10 damage from each of their Pokémon. If they do, their turn ends immediately. The card remains in play as a Stadium, following standard Stadium rules: it’s discarded if any other Stadium card is played, and you can’t play one if a card with that name is already active.

A Tradition Since 2021

This marks the fifth consecutive year the Celebration Fanfare promo has been released with qualifying points as the unlock condition. Each annual print features fresh artwork, typically highlighting Pokémon popular in the competitive scene that year—a true reflection of the game’s evolving metagame.

  • Previous versions from 2021–2024 were given under similar conditions, each with unique art representing top Pokémon from the respective seasons.
  • The 2025 artwork keeps the tradition alive, offering new visuals for collectors to appreciate.

Not Just an Asian Exclusive Anymore

A notable change: for the 2025 season, the Celebration Fanfare promo—itself a highly exclusive reward—will also be available outside of Asia through official Pokémon Play! programs. This increases its appeal and recognition among the global TCG community.

Why Collectors and Players Care

  • Exclusivity: Only participants who achieved competitive success can obtain it.
  • Collectability: The yearly rotating art ensures every print is a one-of-a-kind snapshot of past tournament seasons.
  • Resale Market: Because of its rarity and the prestige of acquiring one, prices for graded versions in earlier years can reach impressive numbers on the secondary market.

Whether you are a hardcore player, a fan of competitive Pokémon, or an art-loving collector, the 2025 Celebration Fanfare stands out as a highlight and a historic keepsake for this year’s season. Good luck to everyone aiming to earn this beautiful promo!
