Neo Revelation Booster Pack

Neo Revelation Booster Pack guide

What's inside the Neo Revelation Booster Pack

Each Neo Revelation Booster Pack is a single foil pack of a random selection of 9 to 11 cards, with at least one rare from Neo Revelation.

Vintage packs came with different artwork on the wrapper, and collectors often pay more for a particular Pokémon on the front. Some sellers also list "heavy" packs picked by weight to hold a holo, which is worth knowing before you buy loose packs.

1st Edition and Unlimited booster packs are both listed here, and 1st Edition sells for far more, so check the listing title before comparing prices.

About Neo Revelation

Brought the legendary beasts and Ho-Oh, and introduced Shining Pokémon, alternate-colour secret rares led by Shining Gyarados. Released on 21 September 2001, it belongs to the Wizards of the Coast era, when Pokémon cards first took off and print runs were far smaller than today. 25 years on, most of its sealed stock has long been opened, and unopened product mostly changes hands between collectors.

Neo Revelation has 64 cards in its main numbering, plus 2 secret rares numbered beyond it.

What collectors open Neo Revelation for

The Neo Revelation cards collectors most want to pull are Shining Gyarados, Ho-Oh, Suicune, Entei, Raikou and Celebi. Any one pack can hold them, but most packs will not: buying the single card is usually cheaper than opening for it.

Our catalogue lists the set's rarest tiers as 29 Rares. See every Neo Revelation card price for what each is worth.

Neo Revelation Booster Pack as an investment

Sealed Neo Revelation is now a collector's item: very few unopened booster packs survive, and each one opened makes the rest rarer. Condition and authenticity matter more than anything else at this age. Single packs are the easiest to resell but also the most likely to have been searched or weighed. Much of its sealed value rests on demand for Shining Gyarados and Ho-Oh: if those cards rise, unopened product usually follows.

Only buy a Neo Revelation Booster Pack to hold if you are happy to keep it either way, as prices can fall too. This is not financial advice; see should you buy sealed Pokémon products?

Before you buy

Check the shrink wrap: factory wrap on packs is tight and crimped evenly at both ends, and loose or glossy wrap can mean a resealed product. At €1,807 it is worth asking for photos of every side and buying from sellers with a long, positive history, since resealed and weighed product is common. Avoid "weighed" or searched packs from bulk sellers: some sellers weigh packs to pull the holos out first. For product this old, ask whether it has been checked by an authenticator: fakes and resealed vintage boxes are made to fool buyers. Always compare totals with delivery included, and keep sealed product away from sunlight, heat and damp once it arrives.
