Customer Ratings & Reviews

The packs in this collection is great in value. The promo pack specific to this set are clean and beautiful, with the kanto set being worth a lot for the chances of hitting it. The promo pack comes along with a pack of mega evolution and phantasmal flames which are also good sets. Overall, first partner series 1 is a great product to open or even keep sealed because the promos and other packs are worth it to sell or to collect for the price.

As a longtime Pokémon collector, this First Partner Illustration Collection is one of the coolest display products released recently. The oversized cards look amazing in person, and the artwork quality is excellent. The binder-style presentation makes it feel premium compared to regular promo boxes, and it’s a great nostalgia piece for fans who grew up with the earlier generations. The packaging arrived in great condition, and the cards were well protected. I especially liked how this product focuses more on showcasing the artwork and celebration of Pokémon history rather than just being another random promo bundle. It’s perfect for collectors, display shelves, or anyone trying to complete the First Partner oversized card set. The only downside is that the value mostly comes from collecting/displaying rather than competitive play or high-value pulls, so this is definitely more for Pokémon fans and sealed collectors. Overall, very happy with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys Pokémon collectibles or anniversary products.

The artwork in this collection is excellent and makes it a standout item for Pokémon fans. The cards are high quality, and the overall presentation feels collectible and unique. It’s a great addition for anyone who appreciates Pokémon card art and special sets.

Seal or rip, this is a must have for starters. Got exactly what I needed which were all 3 first staters and was able to trade for the others. Would love another box to hold for future!

Pulled the kanto starters!!! Great box set would recommend

This is one of those products that will have you coming back for more. For any kid to open a pack of first partner and get 3 beautiful cards there will not be any other set out right now that they will be happier to get. Please don't overpay for this product but its a good set to get.

This is such a great product released by the Pokémon company. It has stickers, 2 booster packs, and a promo pack containing a set of 3 promo cards which is randomized between 3 different possible generations of Pokemon. I bought this on release day and the staff was really friendly and helpful! So glad they had some and that I managed to pay MSRP. I can’t wait to see which gen I pull from this box! Hope I can collect all 9 promo cards!

Love this set! Beautiful cards with a precise illustration. Super excited to have obtain

Amazing artwork. Love this set. Can't wait for Series 2.

Pokémon cards were legit, well‑packaged, and priced fairly. Best Buy is one of the few places I trust for real, sealed product at MSRP. They just need to organize the line better or maybe provide a queue number system

The 3 pack makes this such a fun box, not knowing if you are going to complete the nine but knowing you are adding sweet cards to the collection is truly why this is my favorite box right now.

Love the starter promos! Just wish the store carried more there is always not enough product for the people that want it. I know there’s not much that Best Buy can do about that though.

I pulled the kanto starters from this box and was so freaking happy. Great price. Awesome customer service at the best buy on millerville in baton rouge

Finally got my first partner box thanks to Best Buy!

This is a sought after product because of the starter pokemon pack. It comes with 3 beautiful arts of starter pokemons from Gen 1 Gen 4 or Gen 7.

This Pokemon set is one of my favorite. Very affordable and amazing hits. I wish there were a few more packs in this but I’m happy with what I got.

[Employee of bestbuy] The promos in this set are incredibly cute and I was incredibly lucky to get them. I have already sleeved them and am trying to think of how I want to display them. Shout out to Best But once again for holding firm on the one item per sku limit.

Awesome packs! Always get good pulls from Best Buy sets. Got the starters I wanted with an SIR and a trainer full art in the additional packs, and at MSRP!

The Pokémon TCG First Partner Illustration Collection - Series 1 is absolutely beautiful! The full-art illustration rare cards of the classic starter Pokémon look incredible — the artwork is vibrant, detailed, and some of the best I’ve seen. They display amazingly in my binder. Came with multiple booster packs and solid pulls too. Perfect for collectors who love the original first partner Pokémon. This set is a must-have for any fan of stunning card art. 10/10, already want Series 2!

Dope set luckily the team at gurnee saw that a scalper was trying to get a second one. So my son asand I were able to get one!
