Three Japanese “Starter Set ex” decks, three different Pokémon pairings, and two prices. If you’re trying to work out which one to add to a collection — or which one to send as a gift — the naming alone doesn’t tell you much. All three sit in the same product line and none of them are secondary-market chase cards, so the comparison here isn’t about pull rates or grail chasing. It’s about what each deck is built around and what it actually costs to buy today.
All three are currently listed on our site out of Tokyo, so the pricing below comes directly from our current catalogue rather than a third-party marketplace snapshot. What we can’t do is hand you an official release date or a box-contents breakdown — the manufacturer hasn’t published that detail anywhere we could independently verify as of September 2026, so this guide sticks to what’s confirmed: the theme of each deck, the Pokémon it centres on, and the price gap between them.
All three Starter Set ex decks are built around a themed ex Pokémon: Eevee ex stands alone, while Zorua & Zoroark ex and Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex each pair a Pokémon with its evolution. Eevee ex is currently listed at ¥2,912 (~$18) — about 56% higher than the other two, which are each listed at ¥1,872 (~$12). We can’t confirm why the gap exists; treat it as a pricing fact, not a rarity signal.
Yen prices are our own current listings, checked 2026-09-01. USD figures convert at ¥159/USD (September 2026) and are approximate.
Three Starter Set ex Decks at a Glance
The line-up splits cleanly into a solo theme and two evolution pairs:
| Deck | Featured Pokémon | Format | 가격 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter Set ex Eevee ex | Eevee ex (solo) | Single featured Pokémon | ¥2,912 (~$18) |
| Starter Set ex Zorua & Zoroark ex | Zorua & Zoroark ex (evolution pair) | Pre-evolution + evolution | ¥1,872 (~$12) |
| Starter Set ex Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex | Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex (evolution pair) | Pre-evolution + evolution | ¥1,872 (~$12) |
Eevee ex is the odd one out structurally as well as on price: it’s built around a single Pokémon rather than an evolution line. Zorua & Zoroark ex and Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex both follow the pre-evolution/evolution format and, notably, share an identical listed price. We haven’t been able to verify whether the two evolution-pair decks are otherwise built to the same specification — the point worth taking away is the price match, not an assumption of identical contents.
Starter Set ex: Eevee ex
This is the only deck in the line-up centred on a single Pokémon rather than an evolution pair, and it’s also the most expensive of the three, currently listed at ¥2,912 (~$18). Eevee has no evolution built into this particular deck’s naming, which is a meaningful structural difference from the other two Starter Set ex releases — it isn’t a smaller version of an evolution-pair deck, it’s a different format entirely.
We don’t have verified figures for exact card count or included accessories for this SKU, so we won’t guess at what’s inside beyond the name on the box. If you want that detail before buying, ask through 빠른 주문 and we’ll check current stock notes for you.
Starter Set ex: Zorua & Zoroark ex
Zorua and Zoroark are Illusion Pokémon that first appeared in Pokémon Black & White, and this deck pairs the pre-evolution with its evolved form as the featured ex line. We’re deliberately not attaching a “regular” or “Hisuian” qualifier to this listing beyond the product’s own name — we haven’t confirmed which Zoroark variant this specific deck uses, so “Zorua & Zoroark ex” is exactly how we’re describing it.
It’s currently listed at ¥1,872 (~$12), matching the Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex deck below. For a deeper look at Zoroark’s other Japanese printings across the wider card pool, see our Zoroark & Hisuian Zoroark cards guide.
Starter Set ex: Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex
Sprigatito and Meowscarada are the Grass-type starter line from the Scarlet & Violet video games, and this deck is the only one of the three tied directly to a specific in-game generation rather than a standalone character. It’s listed at ¥1,872 (~$12), the same as the Zorua & Zoroark ex deck.
For context on the wider Japanese Scarlet & Violet-era card pool this Pokémon line comes from, the two images below are from SV1S and SV1V — the very first Japanese Scarlet & Violet expansions. They are not cards from this Starter Set ex deck; we’re including them purely to show what Japanese card printings from this era look like, since no verified card scan exists for the Sprigatito/Meowscarada Starter Set ex cards themselves.

The Price Gap Between the Three Decks
Lay the three prices side by side and one gap stands out immediately: Eevee ex, at ¥2,912, is listed roughly 56% higher than either of the two evolution-pair decks, which are both priced identically at ¥1,872. That’s a straightforward comparison of our own current listings — not a market-wide average, and not a claim about resale value.
We’re not going to speculate on why the gap exists. We don’t have verified information on print run size, included card count, or any other production detail that would explain a price difference, and guessing at “rarity” or “scarcity” without a source would be exactly the kind of unsupported claim we try to avoid in these guides. What we can tell you with confidence is the number itself: it’s a real, current gap between what we charge for each deck today.
Which Starter Set Fits Your Collection
Since we can’t verify contents or production numbers, the honest way to choose between these three is by theme and budget rather than by any claim about value or scarcity:
- Want a single, well-known Pokémon rather than an evolution story? Eevee ex is the only deck built that way, and it’s the one deck in the line-up that isn’t paired with a pre-evolution or evolution.
- Prefer an evolution pairing with a longer TCG history? Zorua & Zoroark ex draws on a Pokémon line that’s been part of the games and card game since Black & White. Our Zoroark cards guide covers the wider printing history if you want to keep building around this line.
- Collecting around the current Scarlet & Violet generation specifically? Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex is the deck tied to that generation’s starter line, and it sits at the same price point as the Zorua & Zoroark ex deck.
- Building out a broader “starter Pokémon” collection? Our Kalos starter Pokémon cards guide covers a different regional starter line if you’re collecting across generations rather than picking one deck.
Because Zorua & Zoroark ex and Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex are priced identically, choosing between them comes down entirely to which Pokémon line you’d rather collect — there’s no price trade-off either way.

자주 묻는 질문
What is included in each Starter Set ex deck?
We haven’t been able to independently verify official card counts, release dates, or included accessories for any of the three decks. What’s confirmed is the theme of each: Eevee ex is a solo-Pokémon deck, while Zorua & Zoroark ex and Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex are both evolution-pair decks.
Which Starter Set ex deck is the cheapest?
Zorua & Zoroark ex and Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex are both currently listed at ¥1,872 (~$12). Eevee ex is listed at ¥2,912 (~$18), about 56% higher than the other two.
Why is Eevee ex priced higher than the other two decks?
We don’t have verified information that explains the gap — no confirmed data on print run, card count, or scarcity. It’s a real difference in our current listed prices, not a claim about rarity or resale value.
Are Zorua & Zoroark ex and Sprigatito & Meowscarada ex identical products with different Pokémon?
We can confirm they’re priced identically at ¥1,872 each and follow the same pre-evolution-plus-evolution format. We haven’t verified whether their internal contents (card count, accessories) match exactly, so we don’t state that they’re identical beyond price and format.
