Forbidden Light Set Information

Forbidden Light is the sixth standard set from the Sun & Moon series, released on May 04, 2018 (6 years ago) in the United States. Single Forbidden Light booster packs on TCGPlayer cost $17.87 each. All standard sets include booster boxes, which today are selling for $542.69. If you break these down per pack, a Forbidden Light booster box will get you booster packs for around $15.07 each. Sealed booster boxes are less likely to be manipulated, so many consider them a safer purchase.

Booster Bundle Price and Price Per Booster Pack

The Pokémon Company International did not produce booster bundles for Forbidden Light. The first set to include booster bundles was Lost Origin.

Build & Battle (Prerelease) Prices and Price Per Booster Pack

All standard Pokémon English TCG sets since Fates Collide have included a Build & Battle box. Before the main products release, retailers and shop owners have an opportunity to hold pre-release events. Each player attending receives a Build & Battle box as part of the event entrance fee. There are different sets; each set contains a special stamped card that anchors the theme.

Build and Battle boxes are another way to purchase packs as shops and the resale market offer them at different price points. The Forbidden Light Build & Battle Box sells at a $58.43 market price on TCG Player. Since each has four packs, the cost per pack is $14.61.

What is the Forbidden Light Card Trick?

When opening Forbidden Light packs, you put 4 cards from the back to the front. You hold the cards with the back logo facing you. You peel 4 cards off from the cards closest to you and put them to the back. When you flip the cards over to reveal the front, you should see an energy card if you did this correctly. The rare card should be in the back.
