Diving into Pokémon TCG or fine-tuning your deck for competitive play? This Build and Battle Box is a solid pick — and Amazon’s got it at a slight discount. While it’s not the biggest price drop, Surging Sparks boxes have been flying off the shelves since restocking, so snagging one without paying a premium is already a win.

The Build and Battle format is excellent for quick, low-prep matches or deck-building. Each box includes one of four unique promo cards: Zapdos, Milotic, Hydreigon, or Sylveon. These promos come with artwork exclusive to the box, making them tempting pickups for collectors.

But the real treasure? The four Surging Sparks booster packs. With over 250 cards in the set, the thrill of unwrapping one of those secret illustration rares (SIRs) is unmatched. Chase cards like Pikachu ex (SIR) or Latias ex (SIR) are currently commanding hefty prices, with Pikachu ex topping $450. Milotic and Hydreigon ex aren’t far behind, either, with stunning artwork and competitive potential that make them favorites in tournaments and trade circles.

Surging Sparks offers plenty of utility for those who prefer building decks over hoarding chase cards. Staple cards like Tera Orb are cheap and easy to find, while new ACE SPEC Trainer cards bring exciting options for tactical plays. The set’s theme of lightning-fast battles and flashy effects makes it a joy to explore, whether you’re in it for the competition or just the aesthetics.

This box is a no-brainer if you’re already itching to crack some packs and chase after shiny cardboard. At $46.83, it’s not the deepest discount, but with Surging Sparks restocks disappearing almost as fast as they arrive, it’s worth grabbing one while you can.
