Pokemon GO (S10B) Chase Cards: Top Hits, Pull Rates & Box Guide

What Are the Pokemon GO Chase Cards? S10B Set Overview

S10B Pokemon GO is the Japanese enhanced expansion pack (強化拡張パック) released on June 17, 2022, designed as a direct crossover with the Pokemon GO mobile game. The set brought Pokemon GO’s visual identity — Team Leaders, raid mechanics, candy rewards — into the physical TCG.

Set Specs

Enhanced Expansion Pack Structure

Enhanced expansion packs like S10B sit between regular expansion packs (standard S11 or S12) and premium high-class packs like VSTAR Universe. Three things distinguish them: 20 packs per box instead of 30, 6 cards per pack instead of 5, and a guaranteed two-holo pack structure — a holo alongside a reverse holo in every pack. That’s 40 holo cards per box, not 20.

The trade-off: the total card pool is smaller (71 main + 22 secrets = 93 cards vs. 127 for S11). But the double-holo pack structure makes every pack feel like a hit pack, which is why enhanced expansions tend to be popular boxes to open for casual buyers who value the opening experience over raw card-pool size. The pack count runs the same direction: 20 packs for S10B against the 30-pack format used by standard expansions like S11 and S12.

Pokemon GO Theme

S10B isn’t just themed around Pokemon GO — it mechanically borrows from it. Team leaders Candela, Spark, and Blanche appear as Trainer cards with full-art SR treatments. Professor Willow, the game’s researcher, gets his own HR. Lure Modules and Egg Incubators appear as UR Trainer items, matching the three-UR count in the spec table above. Even the card backs carry Pokemon GO visual motifs.

The Peelable Ditto Gimmick

The set’s fan-favorite gimmick is the peelable Ditto. A handful of S10B commons feature Ditto hidden beneath the surface art — collectors can peel back a thin top layer to reveal a Ditto portrait underneath.

Why S10B Still Matters in 2026

Two reasons stand out: S10B is Kanto-dense — Mewtwo, Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur all get headline spots — and the Japanese version contains two Special Art cards (Mewtwo V SA and Conkeldurr V SA) that do not exist in the English PGO release. For Mewtwo collectors, the JPN S10B box is the sealed product that can pull a Mewtwo V Special Art.

Should You Buy a Pokemon GO Booster Box?

Here’s how S10B breaks down by buyer type, given the enhanced expansion pack structure, the four Kanto Radiants, and the JPN-exclusive SA cards.

For Pokemon GO Fans and Kanto Collectors

If you played Pokemon GO during its early years, S10B is a physical TCG set built around the mobile game’s visual identity. The Team Leaders (Candela, Spark, Blanche) are here in full art. Professor Willow is here. Lure Modules and Egg Incubators are tangible collectibles. And the set’s Kanto focus centers on Mewtwo, Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur, Dragonite, and Eevee.

For Kanto-focused collectors, the four Radiants alone are a strong draw. Radiant Venusaur, Blastoise, Charizard, and Eevee each use the shiny-Pokemon color treatment rather than a standard holo pattern, which sets them apart visually from the set’s other secret rares.

For Mewtwo V SA Chasers

Pokemon does not publish official pull rates. The card sits in the same SR-tier slot as the other 11 SRs and the Conkeldurr V SA, so opening a box is not a targeted way to land this specific print. For readers who want that exact card without opening boxes, our PSA 10 back order listing is the direct route.

For collectors who also want the other JPN exclusives and Radiants, opening boxes gives a chance at Conkeldurr V SA, a Mewtwo VSTAR UR, a Mewtwo VSTAR HR, and multiple Radiants alongside the pack-opening experience.

For Long-Term Holders

For collectors building a Mewtwo master set or a Kanto Radiant run, S10B’s Mewtwo V SA, Conkeldurr V SA, and four Radiants are the set’s core chase cards — see the Most Valuable Cards section above for the current SNKRDUNK asks and our linked back orders.

Singles vs. Box

If you only want one specific card, our back-order singles are the direct route. If you want the full S10B experience with a chance at JPN exclusives and multiple Radiants, a box delivers that.

S10B vs English Pokemon GO (PGO)

The English Pokemon GO (PGO) release from July 2022 shares the Pokemon GO theme with Japanese S10B, but the two sets have meaningfully different card structures, numbering systems, and pull odds. For buyers choosing between JPN and ENG versions, the differences matter — from the pack count per box down to which Special Art prints exist at all.

Side-by-Side Comparison

What’s Different in the JPN Version

Three JPN-specific cards don’t exist in the English set: Mewtwo V SA (074/071), Conkeldurr V SA (076/071), and the specific peelable Ditto gimmick treatment. The English PGO set has its own exclusive treatments (Giovanni’s Charisma SR, a different Mewtwo VSTAR alt art, rainbow versions of Radiants), but the Mewtwo V Special Art is Japanese-only. The box format also runs in opposite directions: S10B ships 20 packs of 6 cards each against PGO’s 36 packs of 10 cards each, per the comparison table above.

Which Version to Buy

• Chasing Mewtwo V SA specifically? → JPN S10B box or our back-order single is the direct route. The card doesn’t exist in English.
• Want more raw pulls per box? → ENG PGO gives you 360 cards per box. More raw pulls, a different per-box card pool.
• Collecting both language versions? → The sets are complementary rather than redundant.
• Building a Japanese master set? → JPN S10B is required. No substitute exists.

For casual openers who just want to pull “the Pokemon GO set,” either version works — but the JPN set is the one with the peelable Ditto and Special Art cards.

Where to Buy S10B Pokemon GO Booster Box

Our S10B Pokemon GO booster box is currently listed at ¥22,432 (~$146), sourced from our Tokyo inventory. Verification matters when buying sealed product from any seller.

What to Look For

• Factory seal — Authentic S10B boxes have a white Creatures Inc. factory seal. At this price point, resealed boxes are a real concern from unverified sellers.
• 20 packs per box — Enhanced expansion packs use a 20-pack format, not 30. A box should feel appropriately weighted.
• Japanese branding — The box should display ポケモンGO with Pokemon Company Japan branding.
• Seller reputation — Purchase from sellers with a track record in Japanese Pokemon TCG. Ask about sourcing; legitimate boxes come from authorized Japanese distributors, not gray-market importers.
• MSRP context — S10B’s original Japanese retail price was ¥5,200. Compare that baseline against the dated SNKRDUNK ask and our own listed price above when judging whether a third-party offer is competitive.

PSA 10 singles from S10B are available as back orders, meaning each is sourced to order rather than held as physical stock on hand; each product page shows the current terms: Mewtwo V SA (074/071) at ¥35,664 (~$232), Pikachu R (028/071) at ¥15,874 (~$103), and Spark SR (081/071) at ¥12,499 (~$81). See our PSA 10 back order guide for how sourced-to-order listings work, or the Quick Order page for anything not listed here.
