Detective Pikachu Set Information
Detective Pikachu is the third special set from the Sun & Moon series, released on March 29, 2019 (7 years ago) in the United States. Single Detective Pikachu booster packs on TCGPlayer cost $24.61 each. Special sets don't include booster boxes or sleeved booster packs. You'll have to purchase booster bundles, elite trainer boxes, or other packaged products to obtain booster packs.
Detective Pikachu ETB Price & Value
Detective Pikachu was never sold in an Elite Trainer Box. An Elite Trainer Box (ETB) is a retail box with booster packs, card sleeves, energy cards, dice, condition markers and a storage box, and almost every main set since Plasma Storm (the first ETB, February 2013) has had one. Some smaller or special releases skipped it and were sold through collection boxes, tins and blister packs instead, which is where you'll find Detective Pikachu packs.
Detective Pikachu Booster Bundle Price and Price Per Booster Pack
The Pokémon Company International did not produce booster bundles for Detective Pikachu. The first set to include booster bundles was Lost Origin.
What is the Detective Pikachu Card Trick?
When opening Detective Pikachu packs, you put 4 cards from the back to the front. You hold the cards with the back logo facing you. You peel 4 cards off from the cards closest to you and put them to the back. When you flip the cards over to reveal the front, you should see an energy card if you did this correctly. The rare card should be in the back.
