This page includes Pokémon Center US/UK related extra pin information, including – pin restock differences, pin restocks, pin bundles and other related info that are hard to include on main pages. Only restocks starting from September 2024 will be listed here. Please let me know if I’m missing any pins or incorrect on release info here. Enjoy!
Pin Differences
This section includes pin restocks that have slightly updated design. For most restocks, the pins will have updated code on the back/updated packaging but look identical from the front. But for some restocks, the pins will have renewed color and sometimes even different design. I will try to include the ones that have obvious differences judging from official images. For the ones that have slight color update, since it is hard to tell for sure unless I personally have the pin, they will not be included.

A key difference for this restock is that pins now have new copyright Pokeball logos on the back. This seems like a new change starting 2025 as many other event pins have also added this logo. Some of the pins also got minor updates on their design:

Backboard Comparison
Around 2022, Pokémon Center renewed their pin backboards. For most pins, the backboards are now white with a Pokéball. The name of the pin is still printed on the backboard. For some of the special seires, they will have exclusive deisngs. Here are some examples:
