Description
First-generation fans can buy Pokémon 151 SV2a Booster Box stock from TCG Overvault and open the Japanese expansion devoted to the original 151 Pokémon. Released in Japan as Pokémon Card 151 on 16 June 2023, it is priced here in Australian dollars and shipped Australia-wide.
A full box is a natural starting point for a Kanto-themed binder. Twenty compact packs make the opening manageable, and the Pokédex-order numbering makes sorting a pleasure.

SV2a box details
- Japanese release, set code SV2a
- Released on 16 June 2023
- 20 booster packs in each box
- 7 cards in every pack, 140 cards in total
The cards are printed in Japanese, so the Japanese Pokémon Card 151 booster box is aimed at collectors rather than English-format events.
The original 151, card by card
Pokémon Card 151 is built around 151 cards numbered by Pokédex entry, taking you through the original generation from the first number to the last. It is a set that rewards anyone who grew up with these Pokémon.
Lay your pulls out in order and the gaps become obvious straight away, which makes planning trades and singles simple.
Highlights to look for
Pokémon ex
Mew ex and Alakazam ex lead the Pokémon ex in this set.
Kadabra’s return
Kadabra makes its comeback after more than 20 years away from the card game, a welcome moment for anyone who follows the Abra line.
Trainers and Tools
Trainer fans can look for Giovanni’s Charisma, and the Tool card Safety Goggles also appears.
Who the box is for
At seven cards a pack, the 20 packs are compact enough for a family session or a small group of friends. Collectors building a Japanese master set often begin with a sealed box and then fill the gaps with singles.
If you love the Pokémon that started it all, buy Pokémon 151 SV2a Booster Box stock and build your binder from the box up.
It also makes a lovely gift for someone who played the original games, since the whole set is built around the first-generation Pokémon they will recognise.
Opening tips
Set out penny sleeves and a binder before you begin, and open packs on a clean, flat surface so the cards stay in good condition. Sleeve Mew ex, Alakazam ex or any other standout card as soon as it appears.
Twenty packs share evenly between two, four or five people, so a small group can split the box fairly. Keep the empty box afterwards: it displays the set code next to your finished pages and stores spare cards and duplicates for trading.
Building a Japanese 151 binder
Nine-pocket pages suit this set well. Slot each card in by its Pokédex number and leave empty pockets for the ones you are still missing, so the binder doubles as a checklist.
After the first box, note which numbers are left and decide whether to trade, buy singles or open more packs. Starting from a Japanese Pokémon Card 151 booster box gives you a solid base of cards to work from.
Box, bundle or case?
If a full box is more than you need, the Pokémon 151 Booster Pack Bundle is a smaller way in. If you want to go bigger, the Pokémon 151 SV2a Sealed Case holds several boxes.
For most collectors starting a Japanese 151 binder, a single Japanese Pokémon Card 151 booster box strikes a good balance between volume and convenience.
Keeping a box sealed
Some collectors prefer to hold one box unopened alongside the one they rip. If you buy Pokémon 151 SV2a Booster Box stock to keep sealed, store it flat in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, and keep heavy items off the top so the corners stay sharp.
