Why Series 3 Could Be One of the Most Popular Releases
While Series 1 receives significant attention due to the original Kanto starters, Series 3 has quietly assembled an incredibly strong lineup.
Notable fan favourites include:
- Mudkip
- Torchic
- Treecko
- Froakie
- Fuecoco
The Hoenn trio alone is often regarded as one of the strongest starter generations ever released.
Meanwhile, Froakie benefits from the popularity of Greninja, one of the most beloved Pokémon introduced in modern generations.
For many collectors, Series 3 may be the strongest overall release outside of Series 1.

Will One Collection Box Complete the Set?

This means duplicates are possible, and many collectors will need multiple collections, trades or singles purchases to complete the full Series 3 lineup.
