To celebrate 30 years of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, the legendary Santa Cruz Pokémon TCG skateboards collection trades standard graphics for something unprecedented: actual, iconic TCG card art printed directly onto a blind bag deck lineup.

Icons of the Streets and the Table

When you talk about staying power, these two brands are in a league of their own. Santa Cruz has been carving out the soul of skate culture since 1973 with legendary graphics and unmatched board craftsmanship. Meanwhile, the Pokémon TCG has spent three decades creating a global obsession, turning card art into timeless pop culture history.

Bringing them together isn’t just about putting a graphic on a deck—it’s a tribute to the cards we hunted for as kids and the boards we ride today.

The Hunt: Blind Bags & 30 Years of Card Art

Just like cracking open a booster pack back in the day, half the magic of this release is the mystery.

• The Blind Bag Experience: Every deck comes sealed in a silver blind bag. You won’t know which of the 30 iconic TCG card designs you scored until you rip it open.

• The Lineup: Spanning three decades of the TCG, the collection features legendary classics right alongside modern favorites.

• Ultra-Rare Chases: Keep your eyes peeled for the ultra-limited glitter gold foil variant chase decks featuring multi-card collages.

Exclusive Apparel Drop

We aren’t just stocking the boards. Alongside the blind bag decks, we’ll also have exclusive Santa Cruz x Pokémon apparel ready for the release, including:

• Pokémon Power Dot Short Sleeve Heavyweight T-Shirt in Black

• Pokémon Power Dot Pullover Hooded Midweight Sweatshirt in Forest Green
