Inside the base set Elite Trainer Box
Lift the lid of the Scarlet and Violet Elite Trainer Box and you will find:
- 9 Scarlet & Violet booster packs
- A full-art foil promo card featuring Koraidon or Miraidon
- 65 card sleeves with matching Koraidon or Miraidon artwork
- 45 Energy cards
- A player’s guide to the expansion
- A competition-legal coin-flip die plus 6 damage-counter dice
- 2 condition markers
- A collector’s box with 4 dividers
- A Pokémon TCG Live code card
Nine packs is a solid opening, and the promo means you have a full-art card in hand before you tear the first wrapper.
Koraidon or Miraidon artwork
Two versions of this Elite Trainer Box were released: one features Koraidon, the other Miraidon. Stock is supplied assorted, meaning either legendary could be on your box.
Apart from the artwork, the contents are identical. The promo, the sleeves and the box design match whichever legendary appears on the front, so either version gives you a consistent themed set.
Fans who want both often buy Scarlet and Violet ETB stock more than once, hoping to land one of each. Because the assortment varies, there is no way to choose the version when you order.
Starting the Scarlet & Violet Series
Every series needs a first set, and this is it for Scarlet & Violet. Opening the base set gives you a feel for the cards and style that the rest of the series builds on.
For collectors, the base set is the first spine on the shelf. For players, it is a straightforward way to pick up the core cards of the series while learning the game with the included guide.
Whichever legendary you receive, the Scarlet and Violet Elite Trainer Box looks smart on a shelf beside the later boxes of the series, marking where your collection began.
Putting the play kit to use
New players get a lot out of an Elite Trainer Box. Build a deck from your pulls and fill it out with the 45 Energy cards. The six dice keep count of damage, and the competition-legal die handles every coin flip.
Two condition markers track whether a Pokémon is Burned or Poisoned, and a player’s guide walks you through the expansion’s contents. With the TCG Live code card, you can carry on playing digitally between tabletop games.
Sleeve the finished deck in the 65 matching sleeves, then keep it in the four-divider collector’s box when you are not playing.
A gift for someone new to the hobby
For a beginner, a Scarlet and Violet Elite Trainer Box means packs to open plus everything needed to play with whatever turns up. It is a complete starting kit in one box.
