Product type, set and release date, chase cards and how it compares with the WOTC era.
The Base Set Theme Deck "Blackout" is a preconstructed deck from the English-language Pokémon TCG, built for learning to play or sitting down to a game without opening packs first. It belongs to Base Set, the WOTC-era expansion released on January 9, 1999, which set the template for everything that followed in the game. Theme decks like this one are ready to play out of the box, so the cards arrive as a complete, playable build rather than a gamble on pulls. Base Set has 16 sealed products in its line, and Blackout is one of the decks among them.

No published pack count for this product, so its price cannot be put on a per-pack footing.
Every price is that product’s newest stored daily bar, picked by the same precedence the chart above uses — a real observed sale beats a modelled guide, and the guide stands in only on days with no sale. Per-pack divides by the PUBLISHED pack count and is withheld wherever that count is not on file, because a guessed denominator makes a fabricated price. Products the set has but we cannot price keep their row, with a dash.
On file: 1 ask · 1 sale · 11 daily guide points · 141 stock readings.
| EvidenceEvidenceWhat kind of fact this row is. A completed sale, a live ask and a calculated guide price are three different weights of evidence about the same number, and this column is the difference between them. | ObservedObservedThe day the fact was read — not the day the underlying event happened, and not today. An old date is an old reading. | AgeAgeHow long ago this row was read, as of the moment the page was computed. | ConfidenceConfidenceHow much weight this row carries where it feeds a model, from the resolver that matched it. Lower means a looser match or a thinner source, and a low-confidence row is reweighted rather than dropped. | ModelledModelledYes = a CALCULATED value (a guide price, an estimate); No = something actually observed (a sale, a listing, a census count). A modelled row is evidence about a model, not about the market. |

| Live askA copy offered for sale right now. An ask is what a seller wants, not what anyone paid — it bounds the price from above until it clears. | Oct 27, 2026 | 17d | 90% | No |
| Price statisticAn observed figure computed over several rows rather than one print — a delivered floor, a published median over a window. | Oct 29, 2026 | 16d | 90% | No |
| Confirmed saleA completed transaction at a known price — the strongest evidence on this page. Prices are delivered (item + required shipping). | Oct 30, 2026 | 15d | 85% | No |
| Inventory countHow many copies and listings stand on the book. What depth, supply and absorption are measured against. | Nov 11, 2026 | 2d | 70% | No |

A wholesale ask is a distributor’s price for a whole lot — freight, minimums and any trade terms sit behind it — and is not a price a single box trades at. Links go to the distributor’s own page; nothing here is an affiliate link. Per-pack figures divide the lot price by the pack count the distributor published, never by a guessed one.
14 lots listed on 2026-11-13 — higher than 50% of the set's own readings over 59 readings in 90 days.
Thin on the wholesale shelf: fresh-pack supply is not what is pressuring Base Set's raw NM singles right now.
4 distributors’ public catalogues are a proxy for supply, not the print run.
