Best Buy Drop Window: Could happen anytime — stay ready
After the Pokémon Center listings went up earlier this week, Best Buy has now officially listed five products from the upcoming Scarlet & Violet—Destined Rivals set. While these listings were originally just placeholders, Best Buy briefly activated a small wave of inventory — which our Discord detected instantly.
That wave was sold out within seconds, leading many to believe it may have been a test or early drop. Whatever it was, it's a reminder that Best Buy could go live again at any time — and these waves often come with no warning.
We’ve added all five products to our monitoring system in Discord, and we’ll send alerts the moment any of them restock.
Best Buy Product Listings for Destined Rivals
Here’s what we’re currently tracking on Best Buy’s site:
- 🟦 Booster Box
- 🟥 Elite Trainer Box (standard version)
- 🟨 Booster Bundle
- 🟩 3-Pack Blister
- 🟪 Single Booster Pack
These items are listed but not currently available to order. Best Buy has a history of pushing small waves live with no advance notice, and they often sell out in seconds. If you want to be among the first to know, make sure you’re in our free Discord. You’ll get pinged the moment something drops.

Don’t Miss the Drop
We’ve seen it time and again — Pokémon TCG product listings go live, sell out in minutes, and end up on eBay for double the price. The mini wave Best Buy just ran was gone in seconds. Whether it was a test or not, you can bet another round is coming.
Join the Discord and get notified the second Best Buy restocks. It’s free, instant, and one of the best ways to beat the bots.
