Pikachu, Bulbasaur and Squirtle are the headline cards of My First Battle, a deck product from the Scarlet & Violet era of the English-language Pokémon TCG. It was released on September 29, 2023 under the set code MFB, and its official count is 48 cards, with 34 catalog printings tracked. The card list leans on Fire, Grass, Lightning and Water Pokémon, which suits a beginner-oriented product built around starter-style battling. Arcanine, Magikarp and Gyarados round out the more valuable names beyond the opening trio.
The value in My First Battle sits at the very top of the card list. Pikachu, illustrated by Saino Misaki, is the most valuable card, followed by Bulbasaur from Saya Tsuruta and Squirtle from ryoma uratsuka, with Arcanine by nisimana and Magikarp by Amelicart next in line. Those top five cards hold 65 percent of the set's total card value, so most of what makes the set worth chasing is concentrated in the starter Pokémon and a few evolutions. The remaining cards matter far less. Mina Nakai illustrated the most cards in the set, with two.

My First Battle is part of the Scarlet & Violet era.
As of October 2026, My First Battle is a small deck product, and its place in the Scarlet & Violet era is best read against what came before it. The previous set, SM trainer Kit (Alolan Raichu), released on April 21, 2017 with 30 cards and a top card of Alolan Raichu, holds lower total value than this one. With 48 official cards, My First Battle is a compact release, the kind of product where a few starter Pokémon carry the interest rather than a deep rarity ladder.

Completing My First Battle means tracking down 34 catalog printings, of which 30 are priced. Because the top five cards account for 65 percent of total card value, the cost of a complete set is driven largely by Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Squirtle and a couple of others, while the rest of the run is far cheaper to fill. As a 48-card deck product, it is a short list to work through, and the starter Pokémon at the top are the cards that decide how much finishing it takes.
