The Shrouded Fable Elite Trainer Box belongs to one of the later Scarlet & Violet special sets and revolves entirely around Pecharunt and the storyline from The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero. The set is more compact than the regular main sets, but it leans heavily on theme and special illustrations. For collectors the Pokémon Center variant is the relevant one.

When was the Shrouded Fable ETB released?

The Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable set was officially released on 2 August 2024. Shrouded Fable is a special subset, which means there are no regular booster boxes. Products are only available through collector's products such as ETBs and special collections.

Which variants are there?

There is one standard Shrouded Fable Elite Trainer Box, with Pecharunt as its central artwork.

On top of that there is a Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box variant, available exclusively through Pokémon Center.

Contents of the standard Shrouded Fable ETB

The standard Shrouded Fable ETB contains:

• 9x Shrouded Fable booster packs
• 1x Full Art promo card: Pecharunt 129
• 65x sleeves with a Shrouded Fable design
• 45x Pokémon TCG Energy cards
• Game accessories (dice, damage counters, coin-flip die)
• Player's guide for the Shrouded Fable set
• Storage box with dividers
• Code card for Pokémon TCG Live

As with other special sets, the emphasis is firmly on collectible value rather than volume.

Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box – why is it interesting?

The Pokémon Center Shrouded Fable ETB contains:

• 11x booster packs (instead of 9x)
• Exclusive Pokémon Center-stamped promo card
• Limited availability

The promo card as a collectible component

The Pokémon Center-stamped promo is exclusive to this ETB and is the main reason for the extra collector interest.

Indicative market values:

• Raw: €30 – €40
• PSA 10: €75 – €90

The card is graded regularly, but it does not (as yet) carry the extreme premium of the 151 or Obsidian Flames promos.

Price development since release

Since the release in August 2024 the price development of the Shrouded Fable Elite Trainer Boxes has been as follows:

• Standard Shrouded Fable ETB
  → Up roughly x2 since release

Unlike some earlier Scarlet & Violet sets, there is no clear outperformance by the Pokémon Center variant here. Both versions have developed comparably and are mainly seen as stable sealed products within the era.

Why is Shrouded Fable interesting for collectors?

Shrouded Fable stands out because of:

• Its focus on Pecharunt
• Being a compact special subset
• A unique theme within Scarlet & Violet
• Pokémon Center exclusivity

That makes the ETB attractive for:

• Sealed ETB collectors
• Pecharunt collectors
• Special set collectors

Conclusion

The Shrouded Fable Elite Trainer Box is a thematically strong addition to the Scarlet & Violet era, with Pecharunt as the central eye-catcher and a solid Pokémon Center variant. Although the price development has stayed moderate, the ETB offers collectible value for fans of special sets. The question in the end is: do you see Shrouded Fable as a set to open, or as a quiet long-term addition to your sealed collection?
