Over the course of the HS era of trading cards, many new promotional items and merchandise are being released for players and collectors alike. These items range from Collector's Tins to player's pack and collection; from blister packs to the HGSS Series Collection. Details for each item are represented below.

Player's Collections and Packs

The Pokémon Player's Collections and Pack are four repackaged assortments of booster packs from previously released sets, and a special holofoil card from the current format. The Player's Collections includes a theme deck, three random booster packs, and either Gyarados from HeartGold & SoulSilver or Magmortar from Unleashed. The Player's Packs remove the theme deck, and contain either Raichu from HeartGold & SoulSilver or Metagross. Many of the packs included within these promotional items are not from the current format, and cannot be used in official tournaments. All four special holofoil cards receive a fragmented holofoil treatment first seen in the Rising Rivals expansion.
