Scalping in the world of Pokémon trading cards is arguably at its worst point. It's so bad that collectors are actually wishing that the latest Pokémon partnership features no promotional cards.
The Pokémon Company and the Natural History Museum in London, UK, have announced a collaboration to bring an "exclusive" Pokémon pop-up shop to the museum from January 26 to March 22, 2026. It will feature new products made only for this partnership, including "apparel, stationery, a brand-new exclusive plush," the event announcement reads. The one type of Pokémon product that's clearly missing from the list, and probably for a good reason, is a promotional trading card.
