Surprisingly, the pulls from the Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – 151 Booster Bundle turned out to be stronger than those from the Elite Trainer Box.
Pokemon TCG has released its first special expansion of the current era, Paldea: Scarlet and purple – 151. This special set bucks the trend we’ve seen over the years where these special or “holiday” sets don’t show the name of the era in the title. For example, The way of the champion was the first Sword and shielda special era set, but without Sword and Shield in the title. Ditto for the following special kits: Shining Fates, Holidays, Pokémon GO, and Corona Zenit. now Scarlet and purple puts his name to the set with this sentence on Kant. Also, another thing that makes this set unique is that it’s numbered in Dex order, not by type. The set runs through the entire Kanto Dex and includes the normal Scarlet and Purple –Secret Rares of the era, including Full Arts, Illustration Rares, Special Illustration Rares, and Gold Hyper Rares. The Pokémon Company International was kind enough to supply us with new ones Scarlet and purple – 151 products so we can give you an analysis of this set. These products include a Scarlet and purple – 151 booster bundle, a Scarlet & Violet – 151 Elite Trainer Box, and a Scarlet and purple – 151 Alakazam ex Box. In this part of our three-part early reveal, we’ll be unveiling the Booster Bundle.
The Scarlet and purple – 151 Booster Bundle is an easy way to get multiple packs of this set. If you already have all the products that come with the promo cards, this pack is the perfect way to keep on duplicating the booster packs without doubling up or paying extra for the cards you already have. The Scarlet and purple – 151 The Booster Bundle contains six packs from this set.
Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Purple – 151 sets of boosters
My hits included:
- Pokémon ex: 1
- Full Pokemon Art: 1
- Full art trainer: 0
- Rare illustration: 1
- Special Illustration Rare: 0
- Hyper Rare Gold: 0
- Halo energy: 2
Of the three products I discovered, this one was by far the best. I’m a Mew fan, so the Mew ex drop was much appreciated. However, the biggest hit of the box was the Bulbasaur Illustration Rare, as none of the other products I opened had rare illustrations. This is also the only box that gave Full Art from Arbok ex. It just goes to show you that due to the random nature of the output speed, I got more out of this set than the Elite Trainer Box, which has more packs.
