The Pokémon Card Deals I Want to See for Black Friday

[DogOfViolence]

We all want to be the very best Pokémon TCG player and collector, like no was ever was. We also all know the value of a bargain on booster boxes, big box premium collections, elite trainer boxes, and more. Black Friday 2024 should be loaded with Pokédeals, making it the best time of year to invest in some sealed products to rip open or hold on to.

Pokémon Card Deal Predictions for Black Friday​

Grading Pokémon cards is also becoming more popular than ever before. Trainers won't find cards in better condition than being pack fresh, but opening packs rather than buying singles can rack up a Gollum of cash. I'm a Pokémon Master, and the following products are on my radar for Black Friday 2024. Let's get into it:

Big Box Deals​

Pokémon TCG collectors worldwide know how good premium collections and other big box deals can be. We're talking booster packs for less, epic promos thrown in, and other goodies such as pins and card sleeves. I think Black Friday 2024 at retailers like Amazon and Walmart will be packed with all kinds of big box deals, and here are the ones I think will make the cut:

• Pokémon TCG: Classic Collection
• Pokémon TCG Charizard ex Super Premium Collection
• Pokémon TCG Iron Valiant ex Box
• Pokémon TCG Dark Powers ex Special Collection
• Pokémon TCG: Houndstone ex Box
• Pokemon TCG: Crown Zenith Collection - Pokemon V Regieleki or Regidrago
• Pokémon TCG: Roaring Moon ex Box
• Pokémon TCG: Charizard ex Premium Collection
• Pokémon TCG: Armarouge ex Premium Collection
• Pokémon TCG: Palafin EX Box
• Pokémon TCG: 2024 Trainer’s Toolkit
• Pokemon TCG: Scarlet and Violet Shrouded Fable: Kingambit Illustration Collection
• Pokemon TCG Holiday 2024 Calendar
• Pokemon TCG: Paldea Adventure Chest

Pokémon Tin Deals​

Tins are a great way to collect some cool promos with a handful of boosters from various sets, especially at their often lower pricepoint when compared to high-end premium collections. They're also an epic way to store bulk, dice, Pokécoins, and more. Here are the tins I think will be making the Black Friday rounds this year:

• Pokemon TCG Paradox Destinies Tin
• Pokémon TCG: Collector Chest (Fall 2023)
• Paradox Clash tin: Iron Leaves ex or Walking Wake ex
• Pokemon TCG: Paldea Partners Quaquaval ex Tin
• Pokémon TCG: Pokémon GO Tin - Blissey

Booster Bundles​

Need to complete a set sooner rather than later? Booster bundles are the offordable way to get multiple boosters to rip open in one sitting. Yes, booster boxes are ideal for collectors, but they're mostly touching or well above $100. Booster bundles have six boosters per box for just north of $20, with Black Friday bringing price points down further. Here's what I'm betting on:

• Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet Stellar Crown booster bundle

Pokémon TCG Elite Trainer Boxes​

Next to full-on booster boxes, elite trainer boxes are one of the best Pokémon TCG products to grab on a Black Friday deal. Containing eight or nine boosters, depending on the retailer and set, trainers get everything they need to battle, including unique dice, sleeves, card dividers, and a pack of energies. The main draw for ETBs is the promo card bundled in – they're super collectable. Here are the ETBs I won't need to flip a coin on when Black Friday hits:

• Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet - Paldea Evolved Elite Trainer Box
• Pokemon TCG: Scarlet and Violet: Temporal Forces: Elite Trainer Box: Iron Leaves
• Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Temporal Forces Elite Trainer Box: Walking Wake
• Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Paradox Rift Elite Trainer Box
• Pokemon TCG: Scarlet and Violet Shrouded Fable Elite Trainer Box

Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet Stellar Crown Build & Battle​

These stamped promo cards are usually distributed at pre-release events, but this is a chance for trainers to get ahold of one out of four from a new set. The box also contains four boosters and a 40-card readymade deck to battle opponents on the fly. This is one for promotional card collectors, so here are the ones I think will be showing up for Black Friday:

• Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet: Temporal Forces Build & Battle Box
• Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet Twilight Masquerade Build & Battle Box
• Pokemon TCG: Paldea Evolved Build & Battle Box
• Pokemon TCG: Scarlet and Violet Build and Battle Box

Pokémon Iono Premium Tournament Collection Box​

Deck Box? Check! Sleeves? Check! Four foil supporter cards (one being full art) and everything you need for a Pokémon Card battle? Check! These themed tournament collection boxes are a trainer card fan boys dream and a cheap way to get some exclusive swag for your themed deck. Here's what I'm expecting on Black Friday:

• Pokemon Klara Premium Tournament Collection
• Pokemon Cyrus Premium Tournament Collection

Booster Packs and Boxes​

Here's where the Pokémagic happens! A Black Friday Pokémon TCG deal isn't much without booster packs. Single sleeved boosters are fine, but what about 36 packs for a bargain? There's no better time to invest in your collection, so here's what I have on the cards for Black Friday:

• Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet Sleeved Booster Packs - 8 Packs
• Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet: Temporal Forces: Booster Box
• Pokémon TCG: Gardevoir ex League Battle Deck

We're not just looking at Pokémon for Black Friday 2024; we're all over tech, gaming, streaming services, and more. We're doing all the hard work so you don't have to: Here's what to expect from Black Friday sales this year.
