How To Get Pokémon Prize Pack Series Five

Players Can Participate In Organized Play Or Buy Packs On The Secondary Market

The standard way to get Pokémon’s Prize Pack Series Five is through organized play events that are part of the Pokémon League. Participating local game stores that run events may hand out Prize Packs as a reward for earning a certain number of wins, or even just for participating in an event. How these packs are handed out isn’t the same across every store, so players should check with their local event organizers to see what their prize distribution looks like.

Alternatively, players can wait for Prize Pack Series Five and its contents to hit the secondary market. As of now, Prize Pack Series Four and Series Three are selling on the popular card marketplace TCGPlayer for about the same price as a normal booster. As Prize Packs get older and more scarce, their price does go up, as can be seen with Series One which is selling for about $18 now. Pokémon TCG players will want to get their hands on Prize Packs early if they want to pay a reasonable price.
