Inside the Hidden Fates Elite Trainer Box
- 10 Hidden Fates booster packs
- 1 full-art foil promo card featuring Moltres & Zapdos & Articuno-GX
- 65 card sleeves showing the Legendary Birds trio
- 45 Energy cards
- A player’s guide to the expansion
- 6 damage-counter dice
- 1 competition-legal coin-flip die
- 2 acrylic condition markers
- A collector’s storage box with dividers
- 1 code card for Pokémon TCG Online
The code card was issued for Pokémon TCG Online, the digital client of that period, so treat it as part of the original package rather than something to rely on today.
A special set with a Shiny Vault
Hidden Fates was released as a special set rather than a regular main-series expansion. Its Shiny Vault subset gave a long list of familiar Pokémon alternate-colour artwork, which is a big part of why the set is still talked about.
The shiny Charizard-GX is the card most fans connect with Hidden Fates. Every pack is a lucky dip, though, and no particular card is promised in any box.
Opening the ten packs
Have the matching sleeves out before you start, so any Shiny Vault card or GX pull goes straight into protection. Opening one pack at a time and pausing to look over each card makes ten packs feel like a proper event.
The Legendary Birds promo and sleeves
The full-art foil promo puts Moltres, Zapdos and Articuno together on a single GX card. The 65 sleeves show the same trio, so the box comes with a ready-made theme.
If you like a coordinated display, sleeve the promo in one of the matching sleeves and stand it in front of the Hidden Fates Elite Trainer Box on your shelf.
Playing with the box
The 45 Energy cards, six damage-counter dice, coin-flip die and two acrylic condition markers cover what you need at the table. The player’s guide walks you through the expansion.
Use the dividers in the storage box to keep your deck, spare Energy and best Shiny Vault pulls apart. The sturdy box doubles as long-term storage for your favourite cards long after the packs are opened.
Open it now or keep it sealed?
Some collectors open the packs straight away and put the sleeves, dice and Energy to work. Others keep their box sealed on a shelf as a reminder of the Sun & Moon years.
If you are keeping it closed, store it flat somewhere cool and dry, away from sunlight. Either way, it is worth deciding before you buy Hidden Fates ETB stock, so you know whether it is heading for the table or the display cabinet.
A gift for long-time fans
Players who started during Sun & Moon may well remember this set fondly. A sealed Hidden Fates Elite Trainer Box makes a thoughtful present for them, or for a newer collector curious about the Shiny Vault.
It is also a natural companion to more recent Fates releases, such as the Paldean Fates ETB.
