These items consist of a Paldean Fates Elite Trainer Box featuring Scarlet & Violet, a Tech Sticker Collection, Booster Bundle, Shiny Iron Treads ex Tin, and Mini-Tin.

Boxset for the Pokémon Trading Card Game featuring the Scarlet & Violet expansion set called Paldean Fates.

  • 9 booster packs of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Paldean Fates are included, except for the Pokémon Center version which contains 11 packs.
  • A single promotional card with Shiny Mimikyu in full-art foil.
  • 65 protective covers for cards featuring a glossy Mimikyu design
  • A total of 45 Energy cards from the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
  • A comprehensive manual for players on the Scarlet & Violet—Paldean Fates expansion
  • Six dice used to track damage counters.
  • A coin-flip die that is permitted for use in competitions.
  • 2 plastic indicators of condition
  • A container with compartments to store items neatly.
  • A card with a code for accessing Pokémon Trading Card Game Live.

This method is the most effective way to acquire a large number of packs since special sets do not include Booster Boxes. Scarlet & Violet – Destinies of Paldean There are booster bundles available that do not come with a promotional card. I recommend getting one of these Elite Trainer Boxes as your initial purchase. Scarlet & Violet – Destiny of Paldea Obtain the product first, then acquire Booster Bundles while trying to collect the entire set.

The Elite Trainer Box is definitely a necessary purchase. I particularly appreciate the fact that Crimson & Purple All Elite Trainer Boxes now include Black Star Promo cards, and the one included in this box is a Rare Shiny Mimikyu Illustration. This ensures that even if you don’t pull any valuable cards, you still receive a great promo card. My only criticism of Elite Trainer Boxes remains the sleeves, which have had a matte finish since. Shining Fates This type of sleeve dulls the shiny texture and holographic design of cards, rendering them unappealing for collectors.

Hit Count:

  • Pokémon ex: 1
  • One Trainer Supporter card with full art.
  • Baby Shiny: 3
  • A Shiny Pokémon with an experience of 0.
  • Rare Shiny Illustration: 1
  • Rare Special Shiny Illustration: 0
  • Unique image for a scarce coach advocate: Zero
  • There are no hyper rare gold secret rare cards available.

One thing to keep in mind when unpacking bundles of Scarlet & Violet – Paldean Destinies Both Reverse Holo slots have been activated for pulls! This allows for the possibility of getting three hits in a single pack, which sets this collection apart.
