Where to Buy Palworld TCG Trial Decks (TD01 and TD02)
TD01 and TD02 are the cheapest way into the Palworld TCG, and pre-orders are moving fast. Where to buy each starter deck, what a fair price is, and the listing traps to dodge.
Quick answer
Palworld TCG trial decks (TD01 Red and Blue, TD02 Green and Purple) run about 20 dollars each at hobby retailers and are the best way to start playing. Buy from our live deals tracker, the official Bushiroad site, or online hobby shops. Anything listed way under 12 dollars is usually a partial lot, not a sealed deck.
Trial decks are the front door of the Palworld TCG: about 20 dollars for a complete, ready to play deck with the rulebook, playmat, and a booster pack thrown in. They are also pre-selling in absurd numbers (reportedly over 3.5 million decks before launch), so knowing where to buy without overpaying matters. Here is the full picture.
What you get in every trial deck
TD01 and TD02 contain the identical kit. The only difference is the colors, and therefore the Pals, inside:
| Component | Included | | ------------------- | -------- | | Main deck cards | 50 | | Soul deck cards | 10 | | Booster pack (BP01) | 1 | | Paper playmat | 1 | | Life counter | 1 | | Rulebook | 1 |
TD01 is Red and Blue. TD02 is Green and Purple. Same price, same power level, pick your favorite Pals. If you want the full comparison, we wrote a dedicated TD01 vs TD02 guide. Playing with a partner or friend? One of each is the best value in the whole launch lineup.

The price sanity check
A sealed trial deck should cost around 20 dollars. Two traps to dodge:
- The too cheap listing. Anything far under 12 dollars is usually a "you choose" partial lot or loose cards from an opened deck, not sealed product. Read the listing body.
- The panic markup. If a listing is way above the cheapest verified deck on our tracker, close the tab. There are 3.5 million of these things out there. Scarcity pricing on a trial deck is theater.
Before it arrives
You can learn the game while the mail carrier does their thing: browse every card in both decks, rebuild your deck in the deck builder, and practice against a bot in the free online simulator. You will win your kitchen table league on day one.

Frequently asked questions
- How much does a Palworld TCG trial deck cost?
- Around 20 dollars at typical hobby retailers, and the cheapest live listing we track usually sits right at that mark. A listing far below 12 dollars is almost never a sealed trial deck; it is usually a partial lot or a pick your card listing.
- What is the difference between TD01 and TD02?
- Colors only. TD01 is the Red and Blue deck, TD02 is Green and Purple. Both contain the identical kit: 50 card main deck, 10 card soul deck, one BP01 booster pack, paper playmat, life counter, and rulebook, at the same price and power level.
- Where can I buy Palworld TCG starter decks?
- Live eBay listings (tracked sorted cheapest first on our deals page), the official Bushiroad Palworld TCG site, online hobby retailers, and local game stores. Launch day is July 30, 2026, and pre-orders have reportedly passed 3.5 million decks, so grabbing one early is not paranoia.
- Is a trial deck enough to play the full game?
- Yes. Each trial deck is a complete legal deck with everything one player needs, including the rulebook and playmat. Two people with one deck each can play a full game out of the box.
