Pokémon Old Maid — known in Japan as Babanuki (ババ抜き) — is one of the most charming collectibles in the Pokémon world. Published by The Pokémon Company and sold as a Pokémon Center exclusive, it turns the classic Victorian game of Old Maid into a Pokémon experience, with each 36-card deck beautifully illustrated by the celebrated artist Ooyama. In the game, Gengar is the card you don't want to be left holding — the Pokémon "Old Maid" — surrounded by favourites like Pikachu, Charmander, Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Psyduck and Mew.
At MYNTED you can shop Old Maid across all the ways collectors want it: sealed decks for players and collectors, individual singles for those chasing a specific Pokémon or artwork, and graded slabs (PSA, CGC and BGS) for investment-grade condition. The collection spans the Red, Blue and Yellow versions, so you can complete the set or pick the deck that suits your collection. Because these are Pokémon Center exclusives from Japan, they can be hard to find outside Asia — which is exactly why having them available locally matters.
