Pokemon Shining Fates Elite Trainer Box (ETB)

Shiny hunters looking to buy Shining Fates ETB Australia stock can find the Pokémon Shining Fates Elite Trainer Box right here at TCG PokeVault, listed in Australian dollars. It holds ten booster packs from a special Sword & Shield expansion built around Shiny Pokémon, along with a foil Eevee VMAX promo and a full kit of Gigantamax Eevee accessories for sorting and playing your pulls.

Shining Fates was released on 19 February 2021 as a special expansion in the Sword & Shield series; its Japanese equivalent is Shiny Star V. The set has 195 cards: 72 in the main set, 1 secret rare and a 122-card Shiny Vault numbered SV001 to SV122. That Shiny Vault is where the excitement lives, with over 100 Shiny Pokémon on etched cards.

Buy Shining Fates ETB Australia orders from an Australian store

The Shiny Vault and the Charizard chase

The Shiny Vault holds Shiny versions of Pokémon, including Shiny Pokémon V and VMAX, all with an etched finish. Shiny Vault cards can replace the reverse holo slot in Shining Fates booster packs, so any pack has the potential to surprise you.

The headline chase card is Shiny Gigantamax Charizard VMAX, numbered SV107/SV122. It is the card most collectors picture when Shining Fates comes up, and a big part of why people still buy Shining Fates ETB Australia orders and open each pack slowly, one card at a time.

About the Eevee VMAX promo

The foil Eevee VMAX card is the only promo in the box, and it pairs neatly with the 65 Gigantamax Eevee sleeves. Sleeve it before you start on the packs, and keep it in a top loader if it is heading for a binder rather than a deck.

Eevee collectors often build a whole binder section around Eevee and its Evolutions, and this foil card makes a strong opening page. The matching sleeves mean any deck you build from your pulls will share the same theme.

Making the most of the accessories

The 45 Energy cards, six damage-counter dice, coin-flip die and two acrylic condition markers give newer players everything needed to start battling, while the rulebook and player’s guide explain how a game works. Use the four dividers to separate Shiny Vault cards from main-set cards, so your best pulls are always easy to find.

Shining Fates or Paldean Fates?

Shining Fates is the Sword & Shield era’s Shiny set, while Paldean Fates brought Shiny Pokémon back for Scarlet & Violet in January 2024. The Pokémon Shining Fates Elite Trainer Box offers ten packs, and the Paldean Fates Elite Trainer Box offers nine plus a Shiny Mimikyu promo. Plenty of Shiny collectors buy Shining Fates ETB AU orders first and then add its Scarlet & Violet cousin to complete the pair.

The two sets come from different eras of the game, so they feel quite different in the hand. Shining Fates leans on Shiny Pokémon V and VMAX, while Paldean Fates features Shiny Pokémon ex, which makes owning both a neat snapshot of how Shiny cards have changed.
