Pokémon fans can currently save big on the insanely popular, upcoming Pokémon Deluxe Character Guide ahead of its August 25 release, with Amazon cutting the hardcover’s price from $59.99 to just $41.99.
There’s also good news for collectors. The Pokémon Deluxe Character Guide Limited Edition Box Set Collection has returned to stock at Amazon after previously becoming unavailable, and it’s available at a discount too, dropping from $199.99 to $186.39.

The 336-page hardcover, written by Alex Irvine, explores Pokémon from every region and era, covering the video games, anime, Pokémon Trading Card Game, and more. It also includes a foreword from The Pokémon Company’s President and CEO, Tsunekazu Ishihara.
Beyond the extensive character profiles, the book itself has been designed as a premium collector’s item, featuring gold-edged pages and a striking white-and-gold cover showcasing Pokémon from across the franchise’s history.

- An exclusive premium Pokémon Trading Card Game playmat (24″ x 14″)

With Amazon already discounting both editions ahead of launch, now is a good time to lock in a preorder before release day. The Limited Edition Box Set in particular feels like the kind of collectible that could become harder to find once it officially launches in August.
