Snow Hazard is the box most people mean when they say “the one with Chien-Pao.” Released alongside its sister set Clay Burst in April 2023, it’s a Scarlet & Violet-era Japanese booster box that’s stayed affordable while still carrying a genuine three-card Special Art Rare chase.
SV2P “Snow Hazard” came out on April 14, 2023, part of the same release-day pairing as Clay Burst (SV2D) — one set built around the Treasures of Ruin legendaries Chien-Pao and Wo-Chien, the other around Ting-Lu and Chi-Yu. If you’re deciding whether to open Snow Hazard specifically, or whether to buy it alongside Clay Burst, this guide covers exactly what’s in the box, which three cards define the set, how our Regular and Damaged Box listings differ, and where to buy either one from Tokyo.
Snow Hazard (SV2P) is a 99-card Scarlet & Violet set — 71 main-set cards plus 28 secrets, including 5 Special Art Rares — released April 14, 2023. The three headline chases are Chien-Pao ex (93/71 SAR), Wo-Chien ex (92/71 SAR), and Grusha (95/71 SAR). Our SV2P-Snow Hazard Japanese Pokemon Booster Box is currently listed at ¥10,920 (~$69), and the Damaged Box listing is currently listed at ¥12,000 (~$75).

What’s in a Snow Hazard Box
Snow Hazard (SV2P) is a standard Scarlet & Violet-era Japanese expansion, structured the way most Japanese booster boxes from this era are:
| 商品 | Value |
|---|---|
| Set name | Snow Hazard |
| Set code | SV2P |
| Series | Scarlet & Violet |
| JP release date | April 14, 2023 |
| Packs per box | 30 |
| Cards per pack | 5 |
| Total cards in set | 99 (71 main-set + 28 secret) |
| Special Art Rares in set | 5 |
The 99-card total splits into a 71-card main set and a 28-card secret tier, which is where the Special Art Rares — the cards this box is actually opened for — live. Snow Hazard released the same day as its sister set, Clay Burst (SV2D), and the two sets are commonly opened together or compared directly; our SV2D vs SV2P box guide covers that comparison in full, and our Clay Burst pull rates and best cards guide covers the sister set’s own chase cards.
This is a standard Japanese expansion pack, not a high-class pack — the 30-pack, 5-card-per-pack structure is the format Scarlet & Violet-era Japanese main sets use across the board, rather than the denser 10-card packs that high-class packs like VSTAR Universe or VMAX Climax use. That structure is part of why Snow Hazard has stayed an accessible entry point into this era: a full box gives you 150 cards to work through across the 99-card checklist, with the Special Art Rare tier as the target.

Chase Cards in Snow Hazard
Three Special Art Rares define why collectors open this box:
Chien-Pao ex — 93/71 SAR
Chien-Pao ex is the set’s namesake pull — the Treasures of Ruin legendary the box is built around, and the card most people mean when they say they’re chasing Snow Hazard. It sits in the Special Art Rare tier, the same full-art secret-rare tier used across the Scarlet & Violet era for a set’s signature legendaries.
Wo-Chien ex — 92/71 SAR
Wo-Chien ex is the set’s second Treasures of Ruin legendary SAR, numbered directly ahead of Chien-Pao ex in the secret tier. The two are frequently discussed together as Snow Hazard’s pair of legendary chases, distinct from the trainer-card SAR below.
Grusha — 95/71 SAR
Grusha, the Gym Leader trainer card, rounds out the set’s three headline Special Art Rares. Trainer SARs from this era are consistently sought after alongside the legendary ex chases, and Grusha is the one collectors specifically ask us about from this set.
Between them, Chien-Pao ex, Wo-Chien ex, and Grusha account for three of the set’s five total Special Art Rares. We don’t currently list PSA-graded singles of any of the three — sourcing requests for these or any other Snow Hazard single go through 快速訂購.
Regular Box vs Damaged Box on Our Site
We list Snow Hazard in two conditions. Here’s the difference and current pricing for each:
| Listing | 價格 |
|---|---|
| SV2P-Snow Hazard Japanese Pokemon Booster Box | currently listed at ¥10,920 (~$69) |
| SV2P-Snow Hazard Japanese Pokemon Booster Box – Damaged Box | currently listed at ¥12,000 (~$75) |
“Damaged Box” is a condition category we use for sealed booster boxes where the outer box — not the contents — is affected. The booster packs inside stay factory-sealed; what it does not mean is any change to the sealed contents. It’s a labelling of the outer packaging condition, not the cards you’d pull from it. We don’t currently list a No Shrink variant for Snow Hazard; that condition category exists on a handful of other sets in our catalogue, not this one.
If you’re also picking up the sister set, our Clay Burst & Snow Hazard Pokemon Center Gym Set bundles both sets together, currently listed at ¥25,200 (~$158).
Japanese vs English Version of This Set
Snow Hazard doesn’t have a direct one-to-one English set. Its English equivalent is Paldea Evolved, which combines content from both Snow Hazard (SV2P) and its sister set Clay Burst (SV2D) into a single English release. That’s a well-documented real-world pairing — Paldea Evolved is where English-language collectors find the cards split across these two Japanese sets, rather than a matching “Snow Hazard” title on shelves outside Japan.
Practically, that means the Japanese Snow Hazard box carries the SV2P-specific print runs, artwork stamps, and card numbering (93/71, 92/71, 95/71 for the three SARs above), which released months ahead of — and are printed differently to — however those cards were split out for English-language buyers through Paldea Evolved.
For collectors who specifically want the Japanese-numbered Special Art Rares rather than whatever equivalent Paldea Evolved ends up carrying, sealed Snow Hazard product is the direct route — there’s no need to wait for or track down an English-set match that isn’t a true one-to-one release.

常見問題
What are the chase cards in Snow Hazard (SV2P)?
The three headline Special Art Rares are Chien-Pao ex (93/71), Wo-Chien ex (92/71), and Grusha (95/71). They’re three of the set’s five total Special Art Rares, out of 99 cards overall.
How many cards are in a Snow Hazard booster box?
Each box has 30 packs of 5 cards, drawn from a 99-card set — 71 main-set cards plus a 28-card secret tier that includes the 5 Special Art Rares.
What’s the difference between the Regular Box and Damaged Box listings?
Both contain the same factory-sealed packs. “Damaged Box” describes cosmetic condition on the outer box only — it does not describe any change to the sealed contents inside. Our Regular Box is currently listed at ¥10,920 (~$69) and the Damaged Box at ¥12,000 (~$75).
What is the English equivalent of Snow Hazard?
Snow Hazard doesn’t have a direct English match. Its content is combined with sister set Clay Burst (SV2D) into the English release Paldea Evolved.
When did Snow Hazard release in Japan?
April 14, 2023 — the same release day as its sister set, Clay Burst (SV2D).
Is Snow Hazard related to Clay Burst?
Yes. The two sets released on the same day, split the same era’s Treasures of Ruin legendaries between them (Chien-Pao and Wo-Chien in Snow Hazard; Ting-Lu and Chi-Yu in Clay Burst), and both feed into the English set Paldea Evolved. See our SV2D vs SV2P box guide for a full comparison.
