Booster Box Contents

Each Pokémon TCG: Sun & Moon—Ultra Prism Booster Box contains:

• 36 × Sun & Moon—Ultra Prism Booster Packs
• 10 Pokémon TCG cards per Booster Pack
• 360 Pokémon TCG cards across the 36 packs

Cards and rarities vary between packs. Specific Pokémon, cards or rarities are not guaranteed within an individual Booster Box.

Enter the World of Ultra Prism

Ultra Prism explores the strange dimensions surrounding Ultra Space, where familiar Pokémon encounter mysterious new powers and powerful Ultra Beasts emerge through the Ultra Wormholes.

At the centre of the expansion is Necrozma, appearing alongside the Legendary Pokémon Solgaleo and Lunala in its powerful fused forms.

Collectors can discover Pokémon such as:

• Dusk Mane Necrozma-GX
• Dawn Wings Necrozma-GX
• Dialga-GX
• Palkia-GX
• Leafeon-GX
• Glaceon-GX
• Silvally-GX
• Ultra Beasts
• And many more

The combination of Sinnoh Legendary Pokémon, Alolan Pokémon and Ultra Beasts gives Ultra Prism a distinctive identity within the Sun & Moon Series.

The Debut of Prism Star Cards

One of the most important features of Ultra Prism was the introduction of Prism Star cards.

These powerful cards are identified by the distinctive ◇ Prism Star symbol and introduced a special gameplay rule.

Only one copy of a Prism Star card with the same name can be included in a deck. If a Prism Star card would normally be sent to the discard pile, it is instead placed into the Lost Zone, preventing it from being recovered during the game.

Ultra Prism introduced 6 Prism Star cards, beginning a mechanic that would continue through later Sun & Moon expansions.

Lillie Full Art

One of the most recognisable cards from Ultra Prism is the Lillie Full Art Trainer.

Lillie became one of the defining Trainer characters of the Sun & Moon generation, and her Ultra Prism Full Art card has become a major target for collectors completing the expansion or building collections centred around Pokémon Trainers.

The card's detailed full-art presentation makes it one of the standout Trainer cards from the set and one of the best-known cards associated with Ultra Prism.

Cynthia Full Art

Another major Trainer card found in Ultra Prism is Cynthia Full Art.

As the Champion of the Sinnoh region, Cynthia has remained one of the Pokémon franchise's most recognisable Trainers.

Her appearance in Ultra Prism is particularly fitting given the expansion's strong connection to Sinnoh Pokémon such as Dialga, Palkia, Giratina and other Legendary Pokémon.

Alongside Lillie, Cynthia gives Ultra Prism one of the most recognisable Full Art Trainer lineups of the Sun & Moon era.

Dusk Mane & Dawn Wings Necrozma-GX

Necrozma takes on two powerful forms throughout Ultra Prism.

Dusk Mane Necrozma-GX represents Necrozma after absorbing Solgaleo, while Dawn Wings Necrozma-GX represents its fusion with Lunala.

The two forms became central to Ultra Prism's visual identity and appeared prominently across products released alongside the expansion.

For collectors of Legendary Pokémon and Ultra Beasts, the Necrozma cards are an important part of the Ultra Prism set.

Dialga-GX & Palkia-GX

Ultra Prism also features two of Sinnoh's most iconic Legendary Pokémon:

• Dialga-GX
• Palkia-GX

Representing time and space respectively, Dialga and Palkia are closely associated with the Sinnoh region and became major Pokémon-GX within the expansion.

Their inclusion adds another layer of nostalgia for collectors who grew up with the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl era.

More Than 150 Cards to Discover

The official Sun & Moon—Ultra Prism expansion includes:

• Over 150 cards
• 6 Prism Star cards
• 10 Pokémon-GX
• 5 Ultra Beasts among the Pokémon-GX lineup
• 18 Trainer cards
• 3 Special Energy cards

Beyond the main numbered set are additional premium and Secret Rare cards, providing collectors with an extensive range of Full Art, Rainbow Rare and Secret Rare cards to discover.

Pokémon-GX

Ultra Prism arrived during the height of the Pokémon-GX era.

Pokémon-GX were powerful cards featuring increased HP, strong attacks and a special GX attack that could normally be used only once per game.

Ultra Prism features 10 Pokémon-GX, including five Ultra Beasts, providing a diverse GX lineup throughout the expansion.

For collectors building complete Sun & Moon-era collections, these cards capture one of the defining mechanics of the generation.

Full Art, Rainbow Rare & Secret Rare Cards

Ultra Prism also offers an extensive selection of premium card treatments beyond its standard Pokémon and Trainer cards.

Depending on the card, collectors can discover:

• Pokémon-GX
• Full Art Pokémon-GX
• Full Art Trainer cards
• Rainbow Rare Pokémon-GX
• Secret Rare cards
• Prism Star cards

These different rarity tiers give Ultra Prism plenty of depth for collectors attempting to build a complete set or master set.

36 Ultra Prism Booster Packs

A factory-sealed Ultra Prism Booster Box provides a substantial opening experience with:

36 Booster Packs × 10 Pokémon TCG Cards = 360 Pokémon TCG Cards

Compared with purchasing individual packs, the Booster Box format provides a complete sealed display from the original Ultra Prism product range.

It is ideal for collectors looking to open a larger quantity of packs, build out their Ultra Prism binder, search for premium cards or add an original Sun & Moon Booster Box to their sealed collection.

An Original 2018 Pokémon Booster Box

With its original release dating back to 2 February 2018, Ultra Prism represents an earlier era of modern Pokémon TCG collecting.

Its distinctive Sun & Moon packaging, Pokémon-GX mechanic, Rainbow Rare cards and debut Prism Star mechanic make the expansion very different from current-generation Pokémon releases.

For collectors building sealed collections across different Pokémon generations, an Ultra Prism Booster Box represents the fifth main expansion from the Sun & Moon Series and one of the era's most recognisable releases.
