Pokémania 2025 continues to be a struggle as the year goes on, but some restocks are actually coming in at near retail pricing.
The Paradox Rift Elite Trainer Box is back in stock at Amazon for $52.60, amongst some other restocks, but this ETB stands out for being more accurately priced than most sealed Pokémon TCG products right now.
There's also an epic deal on the Pokémon TCG Classic box that celebrates the base set and the original Wizards of the Coast era of the TCG.
Pokémon TCG: Paradox Rift (Iron Valiant)
This Elite Trainer Box includes nine booster packs from the Paradox Rift expansion, along with a full-art promo card featuring either Scream Tail or Iron Bundle.
The set also comes with 65 Iron Valiant-themed card sleeves, 45 Energy cards, a player’s guide, and gameplay accessories like dice and condition markers. It's a good option for players who want a strong introduction to the Paradox Rift lineup with a focus on Violet-exclusive designs.
Pokémon Trading Card Game Classic
This usually retails for around $399.99, so this is a brilliant deal. The cards have a different back design, so unfortunatley they're not tournament legal much like the World Championship decks. This is for Wizards of the Coast era of Pokémon trainers who want to relive how the Pokémon TCG worked back in the late 90s. This set includes:
- 3 60-card decks starring classic Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise
- 3 deck boxes
- 3 sets of card sleeves
- 1 two-player game board
- 1 toolbox case with randomize
- 2 sets of damage counter cones
- 2 sets of condition markers
More Pokémon TCG Restocks
This is one of the better deals to come out of Amazon recently, considering that they currently think $265.99 is an appropriate retail price for a Surging Sparks booster box worth around $140 off the digital shelf. It's also around $15 cheaper than the Shrouded Fable ETB at Amazon too, which is a product of equal value as far as retail pricing goes.
The Top Paradox Rift Cards
If you're after pulling the top chase cards from Paradox Rift without buying loads of ETBs and booster packs, why not just grab the single cards instead? Bar Groudon Illustration Rare, the top cards in this set can be bought for either the same price or $10 to $20 less. Overall, buying singles will save you a small fortune.
