What's In The Box?: Modern Japanese Booster Boxes & Booster Packs

Shop Japanese Booster Boxes & Booster Packs at The Poké Court!

---

When it comes to how many booster packs are in a modern Japanese booster box or how many cards in a booster pack, it depends on whether the set in question is a Main Expansion, a "standard" subset, a High Class Pack, or a Special Expansion. Within the first three set types the amount is mostly consistent (with some exceptions), while for Special Expansions the amount varies. Within some sets, booster packs also have guaranteed card types, like a GX or V card, per pack.

Modern Japanese booster boxes also have a guaranteed number of hits per booster box and the potential of pulling a "God Pack". Read "Modern Japanese Booster Box Guaranteed Hit Rates & "God Packs" to learn more.
