Special Delivery Bidoof, Special Delivery Pikachu and Champions Festival are the cards that headline SWSH Black Star Promos, the promotional collection for the Sword & Shield era in the English-language Pokémon TCG. Released on November 15, 2019 under the set code SWSH, it lists 307 official cards across 305 catalog printings. Rather than a single expansion theme, it gathers promos handed out through events, products and tie-ins. It repeats a few names in several versions, among them Morpeko V-UNION, Eevee and Pikachu V, and leans on Lightning, Psychic, Water and Colorless Pokémon.
As a promotional run, SWSH Black Star Promos has almost no rarity ladder: 303 cards are plain Promo, with a single Rare and one Ultra Rare, the only chase-tier card. Value sits in specific promos, led by Special Delivery Bidoof, then Special Delivery Pikachu, Champions Festival, Special Delivery Charizard and Gengar. Several of the leaders credit the Pokémon Company Art Team, while Gengar is credited to Shibuzoh. The top five cards hold 40 percent of the set's total card value, a meaningful concentration but far from total.
As of October 2026, SWSH Black Star Promos holds the highest total card value among the 3 comparable Sword & Shield sets, about 265.7 times the era median, and ranks 9th across the 35 comparable sets in the game. Its Special Delivery Bidoof is also the era's most valuable single card, and it leads the era in trading activity. At 307 official cards it runs far larger than the era median of 25. It followed McDonald's Collection 2019, which holds less total value, and came before Pokémon Futsal 2020, which also holds less. Part of its card list first appeared in the Japanese S-P: Sword & Shield Promos.

Completing SWSH Black Star Promos means chasing 305 catalog printings, 304 of them priced, spread across event handouts, product inclusions and tie-in releases. Because the top five cards carry 40 percent of the set's value, the cost of a complete run depends heavily on that handful of leaders, while the remaining promos are mostly modest additions. The repeated Morpeko V-UNION, Eevee and Pikachu V printings also mean collectors need to track which version they hold as they work through the card list.
