Released September 18, 2012, was the '''Emerging Challenges Box''', a box that seemingly repackaged older material in order to make room for newer merchandise. Much like the {{TCGMerch|Black & White|Series|Evolved Starter Boxes}}, the Emerging Challenges Box contained 1 {{TCG|Theme Deck}} and 2 booster packs, as well as exclusive promotional cards. Differing from the previous boxes, however, the Emerging Challenges Box contained 3 Holofoil cards instead of 1 Holofoil card and a figure. One of the four Theme Decks from the {{TCG|Emerging Powers}} and {{TCG|Noble Victories}} expansions—{{TCG|Power Play}}, {{TCG|Toxic Tricks}}, {{TCG|Fast Daze}}, or {{TCG|Furious Knights}}—was available in the box, as well as 1 booster pack from {{TCG|Black & White}}, and another from either Emerging Powers or Noble Victories. The promotional cards included were a Mirror Reverse Holofoil {{TCG|Stoutland}} evolutionary line. The {{p|Herdier}} and {{p|Stoutland}} were from the {{TCG|Black & White}} expansion, while the {{p|Lillipup}} was one of the {{TCG|BW Black Star Promos}}: BW52.

The Lillipup promotional card originates from the {{TCG|Cobalion Strength Deck}}, a deck released in Japan 19 months earlier. The other Pokémon cards from the deck were included in the English {{TCG|Emerging Powers}} expansion 13 months earlier. It is unknown why the card was withheld for such a long time before finally being released September 2012. Ironically, the card features a 2011 copyright instead of a 2012 copyright.
