Pitch Black Build & Battle Box guide
Product type, set and release date, contents, chase cards, price history and how it compares with the Mega Evolution era.
The Pitch Black Build & Battle Box is a ready-to-play deck product from the Mega Evolution era, released with the Pitch Black expansion of the English-language Pokémon TCG on July 17, 2026. A Build & Battle Box is meant for learning the game or sitting down to play quickly: it pairs a finished deck with a handful of booster packs, so a player can start with a working list and add cards from the packs. Pitch Black has 23 sealed products in total, and this box is the set's entry in the Build & Battle line.
What's inside Pitch Black Build & Battle Box
The Pitch Black Build & Battle Box holds a 40-card ready-to-play deck that includes 1 of 4 unique foil promo cards, along with 4 Pokémon booster packs and a code card for Pokémon TCG Live. Each booster pack carries 10 cards.
Pitch Black chase cards
The booster packs in the Pitch Black Build & Battle Box draw from the full set, so its chase cards are the ones the expansion is opened for. Mega Darkrai ex leads in two forms, a Special illustration rare and a Mega Hyper Rare, followed by Morpeko ex and Mega Zeraora ex, both Special illustration rares. The set lists 84 official cards and 36 secret rares above that count, with 46 cards in the chase tiers. Value is concentrated: the top five cards make up 71 percent of the set's total card value.
As of October 23, 2026, the Pitch Black Build & Battle Box is down 50 percent since tracking began in May 2026, which is also where its tracked high sits, so the whole record is a decline. Over the past 90 days it is down 21 percent, while the past 30 days show a much smaller dip of 2 percent. It now trades 7 percent above its tracked low from August 2026, which suggests the slide has largely flattened. These figures rest on a modelled market guide.

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.

Method▾
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.

That is a gap in our reading, not evidence the product is unavailable. This reading predates 2026-09-13, when we started recording which channel a status came from, so it names none. Read 40d ago, and availability can change at any moment in between — this is the last shelf state we SAW, never a live one. The price is pre-tax and excludes shipping, so it is not comparable to the delivered prices elsewhere on this page.

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.
