The Journey Together Booster Bundle holds six packs, while a Japanese Battle Partners box holds thirty. Pokemon.com lists Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together with a release date of March 28, 2025 and "Over 180 cards"; Japan’s official page lists Battle Partners (SV9) on January 24, 2025, with 5-card packs at ¥180 including tax.
No official page says English Journey Together and Japanese Battle Partners are the same set. Bulbapedia’s list of Japanese expansions (as of September 15, 2026) pairs Journey Together with SV9 at set level, which is a fan-wiki statement. The Japanese box we list is the SV9-Battle Partners Japanese Pokemon Booster Box – Damaged Box; the regular SV9 box is sold out at the time of this update — restock requests go through the Quick Order page.
We sell Japanese sealed product and graded singles from Tokyo. USD figures convert at ¥154/USD, approximate.

What Pokemon.com Lists for English Journey Together
Pokemon.com’s set page gives March 28, 2025 as the release date and says the set has "Over 180 cards". As of September 29, 2026, the English product pages print no price for any of the four products below.

Pack Counts Side by Side: Bundle, Display, ETB and Japanese Box
Pack count is the clearest difference between the sealed units. Every figure below is quoted from the page named in the last column.
| Sealed unit | Booster packs | Cards per pack | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| English Booster Bundle | 6 | Not printed on the bundle page | Pokemon.com product gallery |
| English Booster Display | 36 | 10 cards and 1 Basic Energy | tcg.pokemon.com expansion page |
| English Elite Trainer Box | 9 | Not printed on the ETB page | Pokemon.com product gallery |
| English Pokémon Center ETB | 11 | Not printed on the ETB page | Pokemon.com product gallery |
| Japanese Battle Partners box | 30 | 5 | pokemon-card.com SV9 page |
The Booster Display description says each pack contains 10 cards and 1 Basic Energy; the Japanese page says each pack contains 5 cards. The official SV9 page’s campaign text names a promo card (ナンジャモのカイデン) for each box bought.
Battle Partners (SV9): What the Japanese Official Page Prints
Battle Partners is an Expansion Pack (拡張パック) on the official Japanese site. The table below sets out the fields that page prints, plus two marketplace facts labelled as such.
| Field | Battle Partners (SV9) |
|---|---|
| Japanese name | バトルパートナーズ |
| Product type | Expansion Pack (拡張パック) |
| Release date | January 24, 2025 |
| Pack price | ¥180 including tax |
| Cards per pack | 5 |
| Packs per box | 30, from the campaign text (1BOX（30パック）) |
| Box price | Not stated on the official page |
| Printed set number | /100 |
| Highest number on SNKRDUNK list | 132/100 (marketplace list, not an official count) |
The same official page also lists a Deck Build BOX (デッキビルドBOX) of 171 cards in 52 types, which is a separate product from the booster box. SNKRDUNK additionally lists an item labelled "N’s Zoroark ex error version UR [SV9 131/100]" at a lowest ask of ¥78,500 across all conditions on September 29, 2026; that is SNKRDUNK’s label, and the official pages do not mention an error print.
Our Journey Together Japanese card list and Battle Partners card list give the Japanese side of the set.
Spec Table: English Booster Bundle vs the Japanese SV9 Box
The English Booster Bundle and the Japanese box are different sizes of sealed product. The table lines up what each page states.
| Spec | English Booster Bundle | Japanese Battle Partners box (SV9) |
|---|---|---|
| Release | March 28, 2025 | January 24, 2025 |
| Booster packs | 6 | 30 |
| Cards per pack | Not printed on the bundle page; the Booster Display description gives 10 cards and 1 Basic Energy | 5 |
| Pack price | Not stated officially | ¥180 including tax |
| Set size | "Over 180 cards" (Pokemon.com set page) | Printed as /100; SNKRDUNK’s list runs to 132/100 |
| Our listing | Not listed | SV9 Damaged Box ¥9,257 (~$60); the regular box is sold out at the time of this update — restock requests go through the Quick Order page |
The regular SV9 box is a variable product with Sealed and No Shrink options; both are sold out at the time of this update, so neither is priced here.
English ETB vs Pokemon Center ETB
The two English Elite Trainer Boxes differ in exactly the ways the official pages state.
| Item | Elite Trainer Box | Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box |
|---|---|---|
| Booster packs | 9 | 11 |
| Full-art foil promos | 1, featuring N’s Zorua | 2 N’s Zorua promos, one with the Pokémon Center logo |
| Accessories | Standard Scarlet & Violet ETB set | Same as the standard ETB |
The official ETB pages list the standard Scarlet & Violet accessories: 65 card sleeves, 45 Energy cards, a player’s guide, 6 damage-counter dice, 1 competition-legal coin-flip die, 2 plastic condition markers, a collector’s box with 4 dividers and a TCG Live code card. The Japanese page lists packs and a Deck Build BOX, so the ETB comparison stays English-only.
Battle Partners (SV9): Cards Listed with Dated Asks
Battle Partners prints 100 numbered cards, and SNKRDUNK’s set list runs to 132/100, so the cards below carry numbers above the printed total. Asks are the lowest asking prices on SNKRDUNK, September 29, 2026, for raw A-grade cards and for PSA 10 cards. They are asking prices, not sale prices. Rarity and illustrator are as printed in the official Japanese card database. Rows we list as PSA 10 back orders are sourced to order; our PSA 10 back orders page explains how they work.
| No. | Card | Rarity | Illustrator (official database) | Raw A-grade ask | PSA 10 ask |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 126 | Lillie’s Clefairy ex (リーリエのピッピex) | SAR | Susumu Maeya | ¥22,000 (~$143) | ¥30,000 (~$195) |

| 109 | N’s Reshiram (Nのレシラム) | AR | Bun Toujo | ¥2,111 (~$14) | ¥7,900 (~$51) |
The table has no English column. The Battle Partners pull rates and best cards page and the Journey Together chase cards page cover the same cards.

| Rarity group | Tally as published |
|---|---|

| SR (Supporter) | About 25.0% (3 types) |

The tally describes Japanese boxes only. It is one outlet’s count, not official odds.
The Battle Partners Box We List
The Battle Partners box we list is the Damaged Box, priced below as of September 29, 2026.
| Listing | Status |
|---|---|
| SV9-Battle Partners Japanese Pokemon Booster Box – Damaged Box | Currently listed at ¥9,257 (~$60) |
| SV9-Battle Partners Japanese Pokemon Booster Box (regular, Sealed and No Shrink options) | Sold out at the time of this update — restock requests go through the Quick Order page |
A Damaged Box listing is not the regular sealed box; the product page shows the terms for that grade, and it is the page to read before ordering. Graded Battle Partners singles are on the PSA 10 card list.
Which Route Fits Which Buyer
- You want a small English sealed unit. The Booster Bundle is six packs. We do not list it.
- You want accessories and a promo card. The English ETB (9 packs, 1 N’s Zorua promo) or the Pokémon Center ETB (11 packs, 2 promos). Neither English ETB is a product we list.
- You want Japanese packs. The official page describes 5-card packs at ¥180. The Damaged Box listing is the box route as of September 29, 2026.
- You want a specific card. The table above gives the dated SNKRDUNK asks and our PSA 10 listings; anything not listed goes through the Quick Order page.
- You want to compare sets. A Japanese card number identifies the Japanese set only.
Where to Buy the Japanese Side from Japan
The English Booster Bundle, Booster Display and ETBs are Pokemon.com and Pokémon Center products. We ship Japanese boxes and graded singles from Tokyo.
- Box: the SV9 Damaged Box. For the regular box, restock requests go through the Quick Order page.
