Temporal Forces Elite Trainer Box

Temporal Forces is the set that brought ACE SPEC cards back after more than a decade out of print, and the Elite Trainer Box is the cheapest sensible way to open a run of packs while hunting them. Nine packs sit inside, along with 65 sleeves, basic Energy cards and dice. Seven ACE SPEC cards appeared in the set, printed in a new magenta frame, and this was the first time the mechanic turned up on Trainer cards rather than only Items and Tools. Most openers are really chasing the Paradox ex cards: Walking Wake, Raging Bolt, Iron Leaves and Iron Crown all got treatments here. The main set runs to 162 cards, or 218 counting secret rares. It reached UK shelves on 22 March 2024, which is long enough ago that ETB stock now appears in short windows rather than sitting around.
