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. There is no known market price for a Build & Battle box for XY Base.
What is the XY Base Card Trick?
When opening XY Base packs, you put 3 cards from the back to the front. You hold the cards with the back logo facing you. You peel 3 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.
