7 straight days of Pokémon giveaways.

For the next week, we’ll be running one giveaway every 24 hours, starting with smaller prizes and working our way up to bigger sealed items, ETBs, promos, singles, and more.

There will be giveaways for different parts of the community, including:

Free members
Trainer+ members
Raffle giveaways using DropNotify points (earned by posting Successful purchases)

The more you participate, post success, and stay active in the community, the more chances you’ll have to get involved.

DropNotify is a Pokémon restock alert community built to help collectors catch drops faster from places like Target, Walmart, Pokémon Center, Best Buy, GameStop, Costco, and more. We track online drops, local restocks, early links, queues, SKUs, and restock windows so collectors don’t have to sit around guessing.

We’ve grown fast because the community actually helps each other hit products instead of gatekeeping everything.

Target Drop Tips

• Favorite products ahead of time
• Add items to cart from your Favorites page when possible
• If you get a “High Demand” message, continue checking your cart instead of repeatedly refreshing the product page
• Credit cards tend to work more reliably than gift cards during high-demand drops
• Orders can take several minutes to process, so don’t panic if confirmation is delayed

Good luck to everyone hunting this one 🤞

EDIT 2: 6/19/26 12:37 AM - ASCENDED HEROES ETB'S HAVE BEEN ADDED TO TONIGHT'S DROP | MORE PRISMATIC SPC STOCK HAS BEEN LOADED

EDIT: 6/18/26 5:24 PM - DROP SHOULD BE TONIGHT!

We all know how Target drops go, so I would expect more "off-menu" drops to happen as well, albeit, at much lower quantities. As always, I recommend joining our Pokemon Restock Community for more information including pings the moment stock hits.

Expected Drop Window: No release date loaded; however, I would estimate FRIDAY MORNING to coincide with the release of First Partners Series 2 | 3AM - 6AM EST

Max Qty: Usually 2 per SKU

This drop is expected to include:

Prismatic Evolutions Super Premium Collection
SKU: 94300072
Stock: 9K
Price: $99.99

First Partners Illustration Collection Series 2
SKU: 1011209279
Stock: 30K
Price: $14.99

Ascended Heroes Elite Trainer Box
SKU: 95082118
Stock: 8k
Price: $59.99

Target online drop tips:

Make sure you join our Pokémon Restock Community for more information, early SKU tracking, and instant alerts when these drops go live.

Best setup: Keep Target open, favorite the items ahead of time, and try adding to cart from Favorites. Do not rely only on direct links.

Checkout tip: Add to Cart on mobile, then checkout on PC if needed.

PC trick: If the Place Order button acts up, click until the dotted outline appears around it, then spam ENTER.

Do not panic: Target orders can lag. Watch for confirmation emails, app order history, or card charge alerts.

Avoid cancellations: Do not go crazy with back-to-back orders. Quantity 2 per SKU is usually the safer play, but multiple rapid orders can still cause issues.

Payment issues: Credit cards tend to work best. If CVV keeps failing, try re-adding the card or making a small normal purchase first.

Good luck to everyone trying for these.

Target has several Pokémon TCG items backend loaded with a release date for tonight, along with a few One Piece and Lorcana items also worth watching.

At this time, these items are showing for a potential overnight Target online drop. As always with Target, things can shift or not fully go live, but this is currently the main watch window.

Expected Drop Window: Tonight overnight | 3AM - 6AM EST

Max Qty: Usually 2 per SKU

As always, other items may drop that are off our radar, but here's what we know.

This drop is expected to include:

Pitch Black Elite Trainer Box
SKU: 1011483406

Pitch Black 3PK Blister
SKU: 1011483408

Pitch Black Booster Box
SKU: 1011483413

Pitch Black Booster Bundle
SKU: 1011483414

Temporal Forces Elite Trainer Box
SKU: 1011701039

Mega Greninja ex Premium Collection
SKU: 1011209273

Mega Moonlit Tin — Mega Clefable
SKU: 1010892073

Mega Moonlit Tin — Mega Gengar
SKU: 1010892077

Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box

Chaos Rising Booster Bundle
SKU: 95298172

Chaos Rising 3PK Blister

Also worth watching:

One Piece — Time of Battle Double Pack

One Piece — Starter Deck EX Luffy & Ace ST30
SKU: 95042136

Lorcana: Attack of the Vine! Illumineer's Trove
SKU: 1011483425

Lorcana: Attack of the Vine! Booster Display
SKU: 1011483405

The main Pokémon watches tonight are Pitch Black products, Chaos Rising Booster Bundles, and First Partner Illustration Collection Series 2.

The Mega Moonlit tins and older/restock items may have much lighter inventory, so those could be tougher hits once traffic, carts, and bots start moving.

Target online drop tips:

Make sure you join our Pokémon Restock Community for more information, early SKU tracking, and instant alerts when these drops go live.

Best setup: Keep Target open, favorite the items ahead of time, and try adding to cart from Favorites. Do not rely only on direct links.

Checkout tip: Add to Cart on mobile, then checkout on PC if needed.

PC trick: If the Place Order button acts up, click until the dotted outline appears around it, then spam ENTER.

Do not panic: Target orders can lag. Watch for confirmation emails, app order history, or card charge alerts.

Avoid cancellations: Do not go crazy with back-to-back orders. Quantity 2 per SKU is usually the safer play, but multiple rapid orders can still cause issues.

Payment issues: Credit cards tend to work best. If CVV keeps failing, try re-adding the card or making a small normal purchase first.

Good luck to everyone trying for these.

Target has several Pokémon TCG items showing signs for a possible online drop this week. There is a confirmed Topps Baseball drop tonight, so it would make sense for Target to stack Pokemon with it, but they could also hold it back.

There is currently no confirmed release date loaded, so this could happen any day this week. The usual Target watch windows are still the main focus, with Tuesday morning or Friday morning being the most likely based on past patterns.

Expected Drop Window: Early Tuesday or Friday morning | 3AM - 6AM EST
Max Qty: 2 per SKU

As always, other items may drop that are off our radar, but here's what we know:

This drop is expected to include:

Mega Moonlit Tin — Mega Clefable
SKU: 1010892073
Retail: $24.99

Mega Moonlit Tin — Mega Gengar
SKU: 1010892077
Retail: $24.99

Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box
SKU: 95267143
Retail: $59.99

Chaos Rising Booster Bundle
SKU: 95298172
Retail: $29.99

First Partner Illustration Collection Series 2
SKU: 95093981
Retail: $16.99

Ascended Heroes Premium Poster Collection — Mega Lucario
SKU: 95225595
Retail: $49.99

Additional item to keep an eye on, but not currently front-end loaded:

Destined Rivals Elite Trainer Box
SKU: 1011467802
Retail: $69.99

FP Series 2 and Chaos Rising Booster Bundles are the main drop watches here, the rest of the items are low stock and will be difficult to hit between other users and bots.

Make sure you join our Pokémon Restock Community for more information, early SKU tracking, and instant alerts when these drops go live.

Target online Pokémon drop tips:

• Best setup: Keep Target open, favorite the items ahead of time, and try adding to cart from Favorites. Do not rely only on direct links.
• Checkout tip: Add to Cart on mobile, then checkout on PC if needed.
• PC trick: If the Place Order button acts up, click until the dotted outline appears around it, then spam ENTER.

• Payment issues: Credit cards tend to work best. If CVV keeps failing, try re-adding the card or making a small normal purchase first.

Good luck to everyone trying for these.

We may see a secondary Pokémon Center SKU drop today.

This is expected to be a random/add-on style item, similar to the PFL packs that showed up previously. At this time, I would not expect this to be Pitch Black pre-orders. Pitch Black has a release date loaded on the backend and it is NOT today.

Estimated watch window: next 30 minutes to 1 hour

Be ready in case Pokémon Center throws something live - if they don't, feel free to cook my in the comments.

If you want to be alerted when it goes live, join our Pokemon Restock Community.

Walmart Queue Tips for Pokémon TCG Drops

• Open multiple queues. You can join as many queues as you want by opening each item in its own tab.
• Walmart+ isn’t always required. Some pre-order drops need Walmart+, but most regular items don’t.
• Click links as soon as they restock. Every time you click a live link, you’ll be placed into a queue for that item.
• Join our Pokémon Restock Community for instant alerts and links when products go live.
• Once you get through the queue, you usually have about 10 minutes to complete checkout.
• No countdown? You’re fine. If you don’t see a timer, you’re not cooked. Just wait it out.
• Some items stay in stock for hours. Patience can genuinely win drops, so keep the tab open.
• Seeing “Unable to add to cart”? Keep trying. It can take a couple minutes.

Add-to-Cart Enter Trick

You can also try the Enter trick:

1. Click the white space above the Add to Cart button.
2. Press Tab until the button is outlined.
3. Hold Enter until it finally adds to cart.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Make sure you join our Pokemon TCG Restock Community for any updates or to check if other unexpected items drop!

Good luck collectors! 🍀

Here’s the REAL Pokémon TCG Weekly Drop Forecast for 06/01–06/07.

We’ve been building these weekly forecasts around retailer patterns, backend movement, vendor restock behavior, online listing changes, and community-submitted reports. This public version is meant to give everyone a useful starting point for the week without dumping every single timing note, SKU detail, and store-specific watchlist into one Reddit post.

If you’ve seen other “weekly rundowns” floating around, just know this is the one built from the process we’ve been refining week after week.

Pokémon Center

Pokémon Center is one of the biggest watches this week.

There has been notable movement lining up with the current Pokémon news cycle, so early-week activity is worth watching closely. Our current read is that near-term movement is more likely tied to Pitch Black preorders than 30th Anniversary product.

Walmart

Walmart should be one of the stronger in-store checks this week.

We’re watching for activity across:

• Chaos Rising
• Ascended Heroes
• Perfect Order
• Destined Rivals
• Prismatic Evolutions
• Select tins, ETBs, sleeved packs, and booster bundles

If your local Walmart usually gets consistent vendor service, this is one of the better places to check this week.

As usual, we will be posting Botmart Wednesday inventory as get details on what's dropping with stock counts.

Target

Target should have a normal-to-strong restock cycle.

The main watch is Prismatic Evolutions ETBs, along with current set inventory from Chaos Rising, Perfect Order, and Ascended Heroes.

Some stores may get a better mix than others, so local allocation will matter.

We also have a fairly strong online restock early Friday morning, with the primary item being a high restock of Chaos Rising ETB's. This may be a chance to get your hands on one as bot activity is trending downwards on CRI products.

Best Buy

Best Buy is worth watching both in-store and online.

In-store inventory appears to be shifting further into Ascended Heroes and Chaos Rising products. Online listings with “Coming Soon” status are also worth monitoring, especially if Best Buy flips anything into queue-based drops.

Sam’s Club

Sam’s Club has movement on bundled Pokémon products and upcoming Ascended Heroes activity.

This is more selective by location, but it is still worth keeping on your radar through June as inventory shifts from On Order, to In Transit.

Smaller Retailers to Check

A few smaller retailers are still producing hits:

• Dollar General: Ascended Heroes Mega EX Boxes, $25 Each with a promotion for $5 off if you buy two.
• Walgreens: Chaos Rising ETBs and tin restocks
• CVS: Ascended Heroes Mini Tins and blister products
• Barnes & Noble: Phantasmal Flames ETB's coming this week
• Ross: Discounted sealed product sightings - $40 ETBs, $20 Booster Bundles of varying sets.

These are not always worth a dedicated trip, but they are good checks if you’re already nearby.

Main Watches This Week

1. Pokémon Center early-week movement
2. Walmart in-store restocks
3. Target Prismatic Evolutions ETBs
4. Best Buy online and in-store activity
5. Sam’s Club bundle movement
6. Dollar General / Walgreens / CVS smaller-store hits

We’ll keep updating as more information comes in.

For free restock alerts, stock checker tools, and live community updates, join our Pokemon Restock Community!

Good luck, Trainers!

Resale is stupid on these so now's your opportunity to get them at retail.

Here are some tips for Target online Pokémon drops:

If you want to get instant Pokémon TCG drop alerts and use in-store stock checkers, join our Pokémon Restock Community!

• Best setup: Keep Target open, favorite items ahead of time, and add to cart from Favorites. Don’t rely only on the ping link!
• Checkout tip: Add to Cart on Mobile, Checkout on PC.
• PC trick: Click Place Order until the dotted outline appears, then spam ENTER. Works best on big drops.
• Don’t panic: Orders may take time. Watch for confirmation emails or card alerts.
• Avoid bans: Don’t mass-order Pokémon. Mix in normal purchases. Too many orders in 24 hrs can get cancelled. You can get away with QTY 2 for the same SKU in two different orders, but it may lock you out for the rest of the drop.
• Payment issues: Credit cards work best. If CVV fails, try a small purchase first or re-add the card.

Good luck to everyone hunting these 🤞

Here are some tips for Target online Pokémon drops:

• If you want to get instant Pokémon TCG drop alerts and use in-store stock checkers, join our Pokémon Restock Community !
• Best setup: Keep Target open, favorite items ahead of time, and add to cart from Favorites (don’t rely on the ping link).
• Checkout tip: Use Add to Cart → Cart. If stuck on High Demand, hit ESC → Cart repeatedly.
• PC trick: Click Place Order until the dotted outline appears, then spam ENTER. Works best on big drops.
• Don’t panic: Orders may take time. Watch for confirmation emails or card alerts.
• Avoid bans: Don’t mass-order Pokémon. Mix in normal purchases. Too many orders in 24 hrs can get cancelled.
• Payment issues: Credit cards work best. If CVV fails, try a small purchase first or re-add the card.

Good luck to everyone hunting this one 🤞

Walmart is not doing an official drop tonight - but GT Collectibles is! Expect bot volume on these products to be lower as they are BELOW MARKET, but ABOVE MSRP.

Here is what we will likely see go live tonight:

• Ascended Heroes Mega EX Boxes
• Prismatic Evolutions Poster Collection
• Pokemon Day Boxes

Walmart Queue Tips for Pokémon TCG Drops:

• Open multiple queues, you can join as many queues as you want by opening each item in its own tab.
• Walmart+ isn’t always required, some pre-order drops need Walmart+, but most regular items don’t.
• Click links as soon as they restock, every time you click a live link, you’ll be put into a queue for that item. Join our Pokémon Restock Community for instant alerts and links when products go live.
• After the queue, once you get through, you have about 10 minutes to complete checkout.
• No countdown? You're fine, if you don’t see a timer, you're not cooked. Just wait it out.
• Some items stay in stock for hours, patience can genuinely win drops. Keep the tab open.
• “Unable to add to cart”, keep spamming add-to-cart. It can take a couple minutes.

You can also use the Enter trick:

• Click the white space above the “Add to Cart” button
• Press Tab until the button is outlined
• Hold Enter until it finally adds

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Good luck collectors! 🍀

What To Expect

• Public drops usually start after queue - products often release 10-60 minutes after queue begins.
• Mobile auto-refresh is normal - if the page refreshes by itself on mobile, you did not necessarily lose your spot.
• Queue does not guarantee stock - Pokemon Center says queue access does not mean products are launching or available.
• Verification emails can lag - order or verification emails may arrive instantly or hours later.

Do

• Use multiple devices on different IPs for public queues - community reports use this for extra public-queue chances.
• Click slowly - move around the site calmly every 1-2 minutes once you pass queue.
• Solve CAPTCHA slowly - rushing clicks can look suspicious.
• Use the cart trick if unavailable - open cart, then return to the product page and try again.
• Stay in your region - use the correct Pokemon Center site for your country.

Do Not

• Check your queue position. Community reports warn this can trigger bans or blocks.
• Use a VPN.
• Spam clicks or refresh.
• Refresh or leave the queue page.
• Use private browsing for normal queue sessions.
• Mix preorder and non-preorder items in the same cart.

Checkout Tips

• Navigate slowly after queue - search/type slowly. Pasting a fresh product link can re-queue you.
• Add to cart and checkout immediately - stock is not reserved just because you passed queue.
• Checkout as guest for public drops - community reports often favor guest checkout during heavy traffic.
• Enter info manually - avoid saved/autofilled data if it causes payment or address errors.
• Enter card info manually - billing details need to match what your card issuer has on file.
• If address errors appear - edit anything, continue, then retry.
