We can all agree that the Pokémon Trading Card Game is a wallet-endangering hobby, but that doesn't mean you have to overpay for those coveted cards. Amazon has recently dropped some fantastic bundles, including Surging Sparks, Journey Together, and Paldean Fates. If you've been telling yourself you're just buying "a few packs for the kids," this is your moment to stock up and pretend it's not for you. I'm not judging—I'm doing the same thing.
Catch Surging Sparks, Journey Together, and Paldean Fates
Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet - Surging Sparks
Price: $54.75, save 18%, now $45.02 at Amazon
I picked up Surging Sparks because getting six booster packs for under $50 is a steal compared to recent prices on Amazon (though it's still above MSRP). It's part of the latest Scarlet & Violet expansion, so if you're looking to keep up with current sets or just enjoy the thrill of pulling a good card, this is a smart purchase.
Pokémon TCG: Iono’s Bellibolt ex Premium Collection
Price: $56.18 at Amazon
This collection is perfect for those who value presentation as much as the cards themselves. Iono’s Bellibolt ex Premium Collection includes six packs, a full-art promo, and an elaborate display sheet. It's a great way to grab Journey Together packs along with a fantastic promo card.
Mass Effect Merchandise
Price: $59.99 at IGN Store
If you've replayed Mass Effect more than once, these statues are tempting. I pre-ordered Jack immediately because, well, it felt necessary. The line includes Shepard, Tali, Legion, and others, and they look good enough that I've already made space for them on my shelf. If you're still quoting Garrus unironically, these are for you.
Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet: Paldean Fates: Booster Bundle
Price: See it at Amazon
Paldean Fates is priced at double MSRP, but it's also very hard to come by in 2025. I grabbed it because the baby shiny subset is awesome, but if you're looking to buy single cards from this set, it might save you money.
Fellow Traveller Publisher Bundle
Price: $123.00, save 90%, now $12.00 at Humble
This bundle includes some of the best narrative indies from recent years. I paid the $12, added the games to my backlog, and immediately booted up The Pale Beyond. It's a strong lineup if you enjoy character-driven games and don't mind being emotionally wrecked by minimalist storytelling.
Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet Shrouded Fable Elite Trainer Box
Price: $54.96 at Amazon
This box is the all-in-one package for when you want cards and a bunch of gear you might not use but still want around. With nine booster packs, a promo, sleeves, dice, and more, it's a solid option if you like having structure with your chaos.
Pokémon TCG: Terapagos ex Ultra-Premium Collection
Price: $135.00 at Amazon
I hesitated on this one but then remembered it includes 18 booster packs and a playmat. It's a big spend, but if you've been waiting for a premium bundle that justifies the price, this one checks out. I picked it up more for the experience than the individual cards, and that's the right way to approach it.
Pokémon TCG: Shining Fates Collection Pikachu V Box
Price: $53.46 at Amazon
I grabbed the Shining Fates Pikachu V box because I never opened it when it first dropped, and now seemed like a good excuse. With four booster packs, a Pikachu promo, and the oversized card, it's a nice throwback if you missed it the first time around.
