Discounted Pokémon TCG: Journey Together ETBs and Booster Bundles Now Available

After the chaotic launch of Journey Together, I didn't expect the Pokémon TCG market to stabilize this quickly. But here we are, with Amazon offering the Elite Trainer Box for $70.31 and the Booster Bundle for $37.97, both at MSRP. Just weeks ago, scalpers were selling these like they were made of gold-foil Charizards, and now they're readily available. It's a surprising return to normalcy.

The drop in single card prices has certainly helped cool the market. The initial frenzy of panic buying has dissipated, leaving us with a set that's still enjoyable to open and now more accessible than ever. This is the most relaxed a Pokémon TCG release has felt since Stellar Crown. If you missed out during the launch week and watched TCGPlayer listings skyrocket, now is a great time to pick up some sealed product.

The Elite Trainer Box is packed with value: nine Journey Together booster packs, a full-art foil N’s Zorua, card sleeves, energy, dice, condition markers, and a code card for Live. Plus, there's the little booklet that sets your expectations about what you're unlikely to pull, which adds a nice touch. I enjoy this as both a display piece and a slow-opening project—ripping one pack a night feels like a tiny cardboard advent calendar of hope.

The ETB's exclusive card, N’s Zorua, is decent, but the real chase cards are now at more reasonable prices. Lillie’s Clefairy ex SIR is still pricey at $180, though that's less than half its pre-order peak. N’s Zoroark ex is now around $13, and even the stamped version is cheaper than a movie ticket. If you're planning to open sealed products, now's the time when the odds aren't stacked against you.

The Booster Bundle is straightforward: six booster packs, no extras. It's perfect for those who just want to open packs and chase the thrill of a rare find. It's more affordable than the ETB, and you're not paying for extras like sleeves or dividers that you might already have in abundance.

The card market for this set has plummeted, making it an intriguing buy. Salamence ex SIR, which once fetched $250, is now around $106 and might settle at $100. Iono’s Bellibolt ex, which I thought would be a hit, is now hovering around $8. This isn't good news for early buyers, but it's fantastic for those just entering the market with a Booster Bundle in hand.

I grabbed one of these because I had $10 of forgotten Amazon credit, and it turned out to be a decent gamble. One pack, random blister artwork, ten cards, and the chance for either joy or mild disappointment.

I picked up one of these mostly because I had $10 of Amazon credit I forgot about, but honestly, it wasn’t a bad gamble. One pack, random blister artwork, ten cards, and either a sense of joy or quiet resignation.

Pokémon TCG: Iono’s Bellibolt ex Premium Collection

### Pokémon TCG: Iono’s Bellibolt ex Premium Collection

0Includes 2 x Journey Together Packs$56.18 at Amazon

I couldn't resist this collection because of the fun acrylic standees and the quirky charm of Bellibolt. It comes with six booster packs, a full-art Bellibolt ex, a foil Tadbulb, and some extras like a sticker and a display backdrop. While none of these are necessary, they're delightful to have.

Bellibolt’s cards have followed the trend of this set's full arts, with prices falling rapidly. The standard full-art Bellibolt ex is now between $7 and $8, and the Special Illustration Rare is around $80. That's still pricey, but a far cry from the early days when it was valued like a rare Iono alt-art. This collection is a great pick for fans of the character, and I'm happy to pay for charm when the market has come back to earth.
