What is the Paldea Adventures Chest?

The Paldea Adventures Chest is a new product that appears to be based on the popular Japanese Pokémon gift boxes. The box features Pikachu, Pawmi, Sprigatito and Maushold.

It takes the form of a box, that from the outside looks like a shoe box. The background artwork for the box is a series of diagonal green and cream stripes. Pikachu, Pawmi and Sprigatito feature on three of the sides while the fourth side features an orange poké ball. The lid of the box is orange with a darker orange poké ball. The corners of the box are  dark green and there are two dark green bands around the whole box making it resemble an ancient packing trunk.

Is the Paldea Adventures Chest value for money?

The box contains one full art Pikachu Black Star Promo Card, one half art ex Promo Card, 2 ex cards that are reprints from earlier sets and 3 holo card reprints from regular cards. It also contains 6 booster packs from the Scarlet and Violet series, one squishy Pikachu toy, a set of stickers, and a mini portfolio.

The most sought after, and valuable product in the set is likely to be the Pikachu Promo Card which is only available in this set. It is likely to be worth at least £10 / $10. The Sprigatito ex card is likely to be worth around £5 / $5 while the other ex cards around £2.50 / $2.50. Although the regular cards are reprints of earlier cards they are listed as being holo foil versions and should fetch £2 / $2.

Booster packs are generally available for £4 / $4, the binder and the toy around £5 / $5 each. The sticker sheet may be worth £1 / $1.

The potential value of the 7 cards is therefore £27.50 / $27.50, the booster packs £24 / $24, the binder and toy £10 / $10 and the sticker sheet £1 / $1. This gives a combined possible value of £62 / $62 without factoring in any value to the box. This set is therefore reasonable value for money.
