Pitch Black Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box – Damaged Outer Box

Planning to rip it? This is the copy to buy. Identical contents to our mint copy at a lower price — the only difference is cosmetic: the outer packaging has a small flaw, think a slightly dented corner or a small tear in the shrink. Still sealed, contents completely untouched — including the Pokémon Center-stamped Zarude promo. The moment you open it, the difference disappears — the discount doesn't. Damage varies per unit and the photo is a stock image. Payment via Ziina or Cash on Delivery (COD).

The product itself: the Pokémon Center-exclusive variant of the Pitch Black Elite Trainer Box (set code: ME05), released July 2026 — the fifth Mega Evolution era expansion, English counterpart of the Japanese Abyss Eye set, headlined by Mega Darkrai ex. The Pokémon Center version carries 11 booster packs instead of the standard nine, plus the full-art Zarude promo stamped with the Pokémon Center logo — a variant that comes from no other product and is never reprinted.

Box contents: 11 sealed Pitch Black booster packs (each with 10 cards, 1 Basic Energy and 1 TCG Live code card), 1 full-art foil Zarude promo with the Pokémon Center logo, 65 card sleeves, 40 Energy cards, a player's guide, 6 damage-counter dice, 1 competition-legal coin-flip die, 1 plastic coin, a collector's storage box, and a TCG Live code card. Language: English. Condition: Sealed, with cosmetic damage to the outer packaging only.

If you collect mint sealed boxes for display or holding, pick up the regular version instead. More rip-and-save boxes: Damaged Pokémon Boxes. Not sure a damaged-outer-box ETB is right for you? Our Pokémon Center ETB vs regular ETB guide covers when damaged is the smart buy and when to pay for mint.
