Scarlet ex was one half of a launch. On January 20, 2023, Japan got two boxes on the same day — スカーレットex (Scarlet ex, set code SV1S) and its sister set Violet ex (SV1V) — opening the Scarlet & Violet era in Japanese Pokemon TCG. Scarlet ex carries the Scarlet-side mascot, Koraidon ex, and a Special Art Rare pool built around it.
This guide covers what’s actually inside a Scarlet ex box, which cards collectors chase, how the Sealed, No Shrink and Damaged Box options differ, and how this set connects to its English-language counterpart. We ship Japanese sealed product out of Tokyo, so the pricing below reflects our current listings — not third-party market data.
Scarlet ex (SV1S) is a 108-card set packed 5 kartu per pack, 30 packs per box, with five Special Art Rare chases in its main premium pool — led by Gardevoir ex and the Scarlet mascot Koraidon ex. The No Shrink option is currently listed at ¥11,648 (~$73), and our Damaged Box is currently listed at ¥14,590 (~$92) — the options move independently, so check the linked product pages for the current figures.
Prices below are our own current listed prices on samuraiswordtokyo.com as of September 2026, converted at ¥159/USD. We do not cite third-party market prices as our own.
What’s in a Scarlet ex Box
Scarlet ex is the Scarlet-side launch box of the Scarlet & Violet era, released alongside its sister set Violet ex (SV1V) on the same day. The set totals 108 cards, confirmed by direct enumeration of the full Limitless TCG card list for SV1S — the same figure used in our own complete checklist article for the set.
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Set name (JP) | スカーレットex (Scarlet ex) |
| Set code | SV1S |
| Japan release date | January 20, 2023 |
| Sister set | Violet ex (SV1V), same release date |
| Total cards | 108 |
| Cards per pack | 5 |
| Packs per box | 30 |
Card numbering on the secret-rare tier runs against a main-set denominator of /78 rather than the full 108 — that’s why the chase cards below are printed as, for example, 101/78 rather than 101/108. This is a standard Scarlet & Violet-era numbering convention, not a printing error.
Within the secret-rare pool, Scarlet ex carries five Special Art Rare cards in its main premium lineup: Gardevoir ex, Great Tusk ex, Koraidon ex, Jacq, and Penny. For the full card-by-card rundown of all 108 entries, see our Scarlet ex (SV1S) complete card list.
Chase Cards in Scarlet ex
Six cards stand out from Scarlet ex’s secret-rare tier, drawn from our own Scarlet ex pull rates and best cards guide, with every number and rarity cross-checked directly against Limitless TCG’s own listing for the set. None of these singles are currently listed on our site — sourcing requests for any of them go through Pesan Cepat.
Gardevoir ex — 101/78, Special Art Rare
Gardevoir ex is one of the headline chases for anyone opening Scarlet ex boxes. It sits in the Special Art Rare tier alongside four other cards in the set’s premium pool.
Koraidon ex — 103/78, Special Art Rare
Koraidon ex is the Scarlet-side mascot of the whole Scarlet & Violet era, and its Special Art Rare printing here is the box’s second headline chase. It’s the direct counterpart to Violet ex’s own mascot SAR on the other side of this same-day launch.
Penny — 105/78, Special Art Rare
Penny is one of the trainer-card Special Art Rares in the set’s premium pool, alongside Jacq.
Nest Ball — 107/78, Ultra Rare
Nest Ball is a Trainer item card that reaches the Ultra Rare tier in this set — a step above the Special Art Rare pool and one of the higher rarity slots in the whole card list.
Two further cards round out the top of the set’s chase list:
| Kartu | # | Rarity |
|---|---|---|
| Great Tusk ex | 102/78 | SAR |
| Professor’s Research (Sada) | 99/78 | SR |
Great Tusk ex is one of the five Special Art Rare cards in the main premium pool, and Professor’s Research (Sada) is a Secret Rare-tier Supporter card. As with the four cards above, neither is currently listed on our site — sourcing requests go through Pesan Cepat.
Scarlet ex Box Kondisi Options on Our Site
The main product page offers Sealed and No Shrink selections, while Damaged Box has a separate listing. These are the two linked prices documented for this guide:
| Listing | Harga |
|---|---|
| SV1S-Scarlet ex Japanese Pokemon Booster Box — No Shrink option | currently listed at ¥11,648 (~$73) |
| SV1S-Scarlet ex Japanese Pokemon Booster Box – Damaged Box | currently listed at ¥14,590 (~$92) |
Our own definition of the “Damaged Box” category, used consistently across our catalogue: it’s a condition category for sealed booster boxes where the outer box — not the contents — is affected. The booster packs inside stay factory-sealed. It does not mean any change to the sealed contents; you’re still getting the same booster packs, in the same box count.
The ¥11,648 figure belongs to the Tanpa Shrink option, not the Sealed option. The Sealed option is selected from the same product page, so check that page for its current figure. Damaged Box pricing moves independently of the No Shrink option, and the documented Damaged Box figure here is higher; do not assume a fixed discount relationship between the condition options.

Is there an English version of Scarlet ex?

How many cards are in the Scarlet ex set?
108 cards total, confirmed by direct enumeration of the set’s full Limitless TCG card list. The secret-rare tier uses a /78 numbering scheme, which is why chase cards are printed as, for example, 101/78 rather than against the 108 total.
