Best Japanese Pokémon packs

Every Japanese set we price a pack for. Prices are what you can reliably pay at a Japanese shop today: find one cheaper at a flea market or Hard-Off and the difference is your saving.

How these prices work
  • Pack now: Card Rush's price for one pack when it's in stock. When single packs are sold out, the box price ÷ the packs in a box (30, or 10 for high-class packs, 20 for Pokémon 151). "≈ sold out" means neither is in stock and it's the last listed price.
  • Box now: Card Rush in stock, else the lowest current listing on SNKRDUNK.
  • × list: pack price ÷ the official list price (希望小売価格, pokemon-card.com).
  • Chase ÷ pack: the set's 3 most valuable cards (Japanese shop prices) ÷ the pack price. It shows how big a hit this pack can give for your yen. It is not an expected value: pull rates aren't published.
At the flea market: what to pay
  • Most sellers price at 70–90% of shop prices, so anything under "Pack now" above is already a saving.
  • Older sellers clearing a grandchild's cards are the best finds: they rarely know current prices.
  • Bulk lots (10+ loose packs) often hide a valuable set priced as ordinary packs.
  • Negotiate: start near 50% of the asking price. 「まとめて買うと安くなりますか？」 ("Is it cheaper if I buy several?") works.
  • Sunday afternoons are best: sellers would rather not carry stock home.
  • Check real sold prices on メルカリ (filter 売り切れ, sold out) before paying a lot for one pack.
