When it comes to Pokémon X & Y, it's unlikely that many merchandising opportunities will be missed; the games have sold in seriously impressive quantities and have a fiercely loyal fanbase, so collectibles and extras are likely to be doing a reasonable trade.
As is often the case, some of the best Nintendo merchandise is in Japan, so the X & Y decks below — themed around Xerneas and Yveltal on the back and showing different 'mon on the front — are available for ¥525, roughly $5USD.
Whether playing Solitaire alone, Rummy with youngsters or the serious business of Poker, these would make it that little bit more enjoyable.

I NEED THESE!! where can you get 'em from?
Gotta catch 'em all-in
$5? Bring those over here to the US! People would buy them. That's money you are leaving on the table Nintendo!
If they don't come to NA, then it is Ebay for me. They cannot region lock these
I wouldn't want to play poker with these cards. Don't want to be distracted.
I'll take 50.
Neat! ...can we say stocking stuffer?
They would be perfect for my son's stocking or mine for that matter. We both love Pokemon.
I love these! I hope they will be sold in NA somehow. These would be great Club Nintendo rewards.
Apparently Pokemon playing cards have been available in Japan in a flavor for almost every game since Red/Green. It baffles me that they haven't released any anywhere else. I'd love a deck of these.
I collect decks of cards. I would love a X deck especially if there are Pancham/Pangoro cards!
There are no pictures of naked ladies on those cards therefore they are not appropriate for poker.
Must...play...poker...with...this

Can't read my, can't read my, no you can't read my Poké face!
