POP Series 8 Card List & Price Guide
Every POP Series 8 card with live raw and PSA 10 prices, updated hourly. Updated Nov 2, 2026.
Released in September 2008, POP Series 8 is a compact promotional set from the late Diamond & Pearl period, distributed through organized play rather than standard retail expansion channels. Its checklist focuses on Sinnoh-era Pokémon and uses only common, uncommon, and rare classifications, without an LV.X or secret-rare layer. Lucario and Luxray anchor the rare tier, while Riolu, Chimchar, Piplup, and Happiny give the lower rarities unusual collector interest. The set's identity comes from its small format, event-based distribution, and character-driven demand rather than elaborate foil mechanics.

Where did POP Series 8 cards originally come from?
POP Series 8 came from small promotional packs distributed through organized play, including league and event participation. It was not structured like a normal retail expansion with booster boxes, which helps explain why loose singles are the usual route for checklist builders.
What rarity tiers appear in POP Series 8?
The recorded POP Series 8 checklist contains commons, uncommons, and rares, with no dedicated LV.X or secret-rare tier. Interest therefore rests on individual Pokémon, especially Lucario, Luxray, Riolu, and the Sinnoh starters, rather than a premium insert mechanic.
Can POP Series 8 collectors find both Riolu and Lucario?
Yes. Lucario appears as card #2 at rare, while Riolu appears as card #16 at common. The pairing gives character-focused collectors an evolution line across two rarity levels, and Riolu's demand can exceed what its common symbol might suggest.
