Night Out opens in Culver City. Anniversary bands still holding.

· 5:00 AM CT

Night Out pop-up opens today — Culver City Sep 23–27 · online merch Sep 24 · The Pokémon Company International / Pokémon Center

Pokémon Center’s Night Out Experience opens today at Westfield Culver City (Sep 23–27) — photo ops and a social ticket giveaway for the sold-out Oct 24 Intuit Dome show, with no merch for sale at the pop-up. Online Night Out merch lands tomorrow (Sep 24). Under that day-of calendar, Mega Evolution—Delta Reign still carries the Official product chase (Nov 6 street; prereleases from Oct 24), and Monday’s anniversary price bands still hold: standard 30th Celebration ETBs in the $150–170 cluster, RGB Mew on the prior weekly bands, with overnight ask tape observational only. Also on the fold: One Piece Mini Case Set [TS-03], Riftbound Radiance preview kickoff Thursday, and a soft grading note on PSA’s Standard tier plus PSA Europe in Frankfurt.

How the market was

A quiet morning on price — not a reset. Standard Celebration ETBs still read $150–170 versus $49.99 MSRP (ICv2 Sep 17). Fresher Pokémon Price Tracker sealed ask tape sits around ~$179 (soft-firm mid-$170s) — still inside the cluster, not a rewrite. Premium versus MSRP holds with high confidence; the exact center of the ETB band stays medium. Pokémon Center ETB ask tape looks softer overnight (~$298 vs a prior ~$319 print) — watch only; no locked band there.

RGB Mew stays on the prior weekly bands: Red $6–7k, Green ~$8k, Blue ~$5k, plus the Sep 14 $20k Blue outlier (thin, pre-release). Overnight ask tape shows Red low asks near ~$6.9k (back toward the lock), Green still soft near ~$4.2k, and Blue thin near ~$4.5k. Asks are not completed sales — hold the bands; treat the tape as observational week-over-week.

Pokémon first. No verified fresh One Piece or Riftbound sealed week-over-week overnight — those rows stay omitted rather than padded.

Day movers

  • Pokémon — 30th Celebration ETB (standard) — $150–170 vs $49.99 MSRP; overnight ask tape ~$179. High confidence on premium vs MSRP; medium on exact center.
  • Pokémon — RGB Mew — Red $6–7k / Green ~$8k / Blue ~$5k (+ $20k Blue outlier). Overnight asks: R rebound ~$6.9k, G soft ~$4.2k, B thin ~$4.5k. Medium confidence (asks ≠ completeds).
  • Our read — Hold Monday’s bands. Firmer standard ETB ask tape and softer PC / mixed Mew asks are observational only — not a new market call.

Note

Celebration product has been live since about Sep 16. The $20k Blue Mew print is a thin pre-release outlier. Don’t blend asks with completed sales, or Japanese tape with English. Night Out pop-up sells no merch on-site — online merch is Sep 24. One Piece full Banned & Restricted list still not on Bandai English news; keep any soft teaser without card names from secondary social clips.
