What is in a Pokemon tin?

A metal tin with a promo card and a few packs. The tin outlives the cards and is the reason a lot of people buy them.

That is what this kind of product usually holds. It is deliberately not stated per set, because the contents have changed between releases and we do not have a per set count we can stand behind. What we do have is what came out of the ones opened here, counted below, and how many packs each kind of product holds, which is read off the manufacturer's and the sellers' own pages with the source on every number.

Which sets we opened these from

Openings and packs counted here, in our own videos, which is the only place these numbers come from. Of the 12 openings above, 5 are tagged with more than one set and are counted under each of them. The column therefore adds up to 19, more than the 12. Each row opens that set's guide.

What a Tin costs, by set. TCGplayer market price, read September 1, 2026

Prices are TCGplayer market and lowest listing, read September 1, 2026, the same figures the rest of this site quotes. They move. Pack prices works out what that comes to per pack, and what it should cost has the retail figure to measure any of it against. Each photograph is TCGplayer's, and it is that row's own product rather than a stand-in, which is why the art is different in every one of them.
