Silver Tempest Build and Battle Stadium (2022): Contents and MSRP
By Dexhaul Team · October 13, 2026 · 6 min read
The Silver Tempest Build and Battle Stadium contains 12 Silver Tempest booster packs, 2 prerelease promo cards, and 121 basic Energy cards. Its MSRP was $79.99 at launch per The Pokémon Company's official product gallery. It released on November 25, 2022.
The Stadium bundles two Silver Tempest (SWSH12) Build and Battle Boxes, each of which holds four booster packs and one prerelease promo card. An extra four Silver Tempest packs round the total up to 12.
What's inside the Silver Tempest Build and Battle Stadium
The Stadium's contents break down across two Build and Battle Boxes plus a handful of loose packs. Here is every component.
| Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Silver Tempest Build and Battle Box | 2 | Each box holds 4 booster packs and 1 prerelease promo card |
| Silver Tempest booster packs (from B&B Boxes) | 8 | 10 cards each; 4 packs per Build and Battle Box |
| Silver Tempest booster packs (extra) | 4 | Loose packs included alongside the two boxes |
| Booster packs total | 12 | All from the Silver Tempest set (SWSH12) |
| Prerelease promo cards | 2 | One per Build and Battle Box; randomly one of four: Regidrago VSTAR, Alolan Vulpix V, Serperior V, or Manaphy |
| Basic Energy cards | 121 | Assorted basic Energy for deck building |
The two prerelease promos are stamped versions of Silver Tempest set cards. You cannot pull a stamped prerelease promo from a regular booster pack: they were distributed only through Build and Battle products. Getting two means you have a reasonable chance of landing two different promo designs.

MSRP and price per pack
At its $79.99 MSRP, the Stadium worked out to $6.67 per pack. That was a shade above the standard booster pack MSRP at the time, which reflected the two prerelease promos and the 121 Energy cards bundled alongside.
| Product | MSRP | Pack count | MSRP per pack |
|---|---|---|---|
| Silver Tempest Build and Battle Stadium | $79.99 | 12 | $6.67 |
| Silver Tempest Build and Battle Box (single) | $14.99 | 4 | $3.75 |
| Silver Tempest Elite Trainer Box | $49.99 | 8 | $6.25 |
| Silver Tempest booster pack (single) | $4.49 | 1 | $4.49 |
Secondary market prices for the Stadium now sit above MSRP, with sellers on DexHaul listing it at around $171–$181 USD depending on the shop.
The prerelease promos are the main driver. Regidrago VSTAR in particular remains one of the more sought-after Sword and Shield stamped promos among set collectors.
How it compares to the Silver Tempest ETB
Most buyers comparing Silver Tempest sealed products are deciding between the Stadium and the Elite Trainer Box. They are different products for different needs.
| Feature | Build and Battle Stadium | Elite Trainer Box |
|---|---|---|
| Booster packs | 12 Silver Tempest | 8 Silver Tempest |
| Promo cards | 2 prerelease promos (stamped) | 1 full-art Lugia VSTAR promo |
| Card sleeves | None | 65 Lugia-themed sleeves |
| Energy cards | 121 basic Energy | None |
| Dice / counters | None | Included |
| MSRP | $79.99 | $49.99 |
The Stadium gives you more packs and deck-building Energy but no sleeves or accessories. The Silver Tempest ETB is the better pick if you want the Lugia VSTAR full-art promo and sleeve storage for your collection. The Stadium suits players who want Energy and packs in one box.
Release timeline
Silver Tempest had two key dates. The main set launched first, with the Stadium following two weeks later as a separate retail release.
| Date | Event | Source |
|---|---|---|
| October 29 – November 6, 2022 | Silver Tempest prerelease events (Build and Battle Boxes available at local game stores) | Pokémon TCG official expansion page |
| November 11, 2022 | Silver Tempest (SWSH12) main set retail launch | Pokémon TCG official expansion page |
| November 25, 2022 | Silver Tempest Build and Battle Stadium retail release | Pokémon.com product gallery |
The November 25 retail date for the Stadium landed on Black Friday 2022. That timing was intentional: it made the Stadium a ready-made gift purchase at a prominent shopping moment, two weeks after the main set had already built demand.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Buy it if you want deck-building Energy and sealed packs together
The 121 basic Energy cards are the Stadium's clearest practical advantage over every other Silver Tempest product. New players building their first decks need a lot of Energy, and getting it bundled with 12 packs avoids a separate purchase. Returning players who want to revisit SWSH12 pulls also get a solid pack count for the price.
Buy it if the prerelease promos interest you
Stamped prerelease promos are the Stadium's collector draw. The four Silver Tempest prerelease promos distributed via Build and Battle Boxes were Regidrago VSTAR, Alolan Vulpix V, Serperior V, and Manaphy, each carrying a Build and Battle stamp not found on their booster-pack counterparts. Getting two random promos from the four is a useful start if you are completing the SWSH prerelease promo run.
Skip it if you want the full ETB accessory set
The Stadium contains no sleeves, no damage counters, and no coin. If you want the complete Silver Tempest play experience in one box, the Elite Trainer Box is the better choice. It holds 8 packs instead of 12 but adds 65 Lugia-themed sleeves, dice, and condition markers.
A useful gift for TCG players
The Silver Tempest Build and Battle Stadium works well as a gift for players aged 10 and up who are already familiar with the game. The 12 packs and 121 Energy give a newcomer a playable collection from day one. For gift-giving ideas across more budgets and age ranges, see the DexHaul 2026 holiday gift guide.
