Where to buy Pokémon 151 booster boxes wholesale?What is in the box and the cards that sell it

Charizard is the best-selling Pokémon in any format, and in 151 it has its most recognisable SAR, illustrated by miki kudo. It is the card both the collector and the parent bringing their child to the shop ask about.

Shop tip: if you advertise the box, lead with Charizard. It is the card that draws the most clicks and visits on social media and in the window.

Alongside Charizard, the Venusaur (Yoriyuki Ikegami) and Blastoise (Mitsuhiro Arita) SARs are the most sought-after cards in 151: the Kanto starter trio is what nostalgic customers ask for. They continue the scenes of their pre-evolutions’ ARs, so customers who start with one usually want the whole line.

Shop tip: show the three SARs together in the window and on social media; the complete trio sells better than any single card.

Mew is number 151 in the Kanto Pokédex and its gold version caps off the set. It is the card that builds excitement at live openings and in-store events: everyone wants to see if it turns up.

Cona Nitanda's Erika SAR, surrounded by Kanto's Grass-type Pokémon, is one of the most sought-after Trainer cards of the Scarlet & Violet era. It attracts a different collector from Charizard's: the one who chases character illustrations.

Together with Giovanni's Charisma (207), it is a reason to keep boxes sealed: they are the set's two Trainer SARs.

ARs turn up far more often than SARs, and in 151 they feature the best-known Pokémon in the series. Charmander and Charmeleon form a scene with the Charizard SAR that collectors want to complete.

Shop tip: single packs of 151 work very well as an impulse buy for nostalgic customers and as a gift; casual buyers are after Pikachu, Snorlax or Mewtwo.
