What is in a Battle Partners booster box?
A sealed Battle Partners box holds 30 packs of 5 cards, 150 cards in all. Pokémon doesn't publish pull rates. Going by what collectors report, a standard Scarlet & Violet box like this one typically holds three Art Rares and one card of SR or better as the main hit, along with about four Double Rare Pokémon ex. Special Art Rares turn up in roughly 1 box in 3 to 6 and the gold Ultra Rare in about 1 box in 10. These are unofficial figures, so no box is promised any of them. Our pull rates guide explains where the collector numbers come from.
What is Battle Partners called in English?
The cards of Battle Partners went into the English set Journey Together. English cards also use different rarity names, so the Japanese AR is called an Illustration Rare and the SAR a Special Illustration Rare.
