🃏 1. Boosters: Flexible and Exciting
A Pokémon booster contains 10 cards, sometimes including a shiny one. It’s the ideal format for:
📦 Opening at a low cost
🎯 Targeting a specific series (e.g., EV 10, Crown Zenith…)
🎉 Feeling the thrill of opening and surprise
⚠️ But beware: a single booster = low chances of pulling an ultra-rare card… unless you get lucky 🍀

📦 2. Boxes: Generous and Exclusive Content
A box contains several boosters, one or more exclusive promo cards, and sometimes goodies (pins, playmats, deck boxes, etc.).
Advantages:
💥 Better quantity/price ratio
⭐ Promo cards only found in that box
🎁 Great gift choice
A box is perfect to get started, treat yourself, or begin a serious collection.

⚖️ 3. The Right Balance? Booster + Box
You can also mix both:
→ Buy a box for the promos and accessories
→ Add a few boosters to grow your set without breaking the bank
💡 This is a common method used by collectors who want to optimize their openings.

🛍️ Conclusion
👉 In summary:
Looking for flexibility? Go for boosters.
Want more cards + bonuses? Choose boxes.
Want the best of both worlds? Mix smartly.
