Scarlet & Violet—Twilight Masquerade
Elite Trainer Box EV calculator

Estimate the expected value (EV) of Twilight Masquerade elite trainer boxes using live TCGplayer market prices via TCGCSV. This calculator models the Twilight Masquerade English pull structure with standard slots, rare-slot upgrades, a first reverse slot that can upgrade into ACE SPEC, and premium bonus-slot upgrades to produce realistic EV and variance projections.

Basic Energy, code cards, the Teal Mask Ogerpon promo, and ETB accessories are not included in this calculation.

Each sealed product is simulated pack-by-pack using the configured Twilight Masquerade pull-rate assumptions shown on the page. Simulations always draw full pack contents first, then apply optional Sift filtering afterward so EV follows true opening order.

Set theme: Twilight Masquerade spotlights the masked Legendary Pokémon Ogerpon across its masks, plus Greninja ex, Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex, Sinistcha ex, Dragapult ex, and a deep ACE SPEC lineup alongside Illustration Rare, Special Illustration Rare, and Hyper Rare chase cards.

9 packs / box Model defaults tuned to TCGplayer Twilight Masquerade pull-rate guidance Base slots: 4 Common • 3 Uncommon • 1 Rare-or-better Reverse slots: 1 reverse slot with ACE SPEC upgrades + 1 bonus slot with IR / SIR / Hyper Rare upgrades Official numbering follows the uploaded Twilight Masquerade card list Live singles pricing from TCGCSV / TCGplayer

Twilight Masquerade pull-rate context (community estimates)

This calculator uses live pricing with a configurable Twilight Masquerade pack model. The Pokemon Company has not published exact English Twilight Masquerade rarity upgrade rates, so the defaults below remain community and TCGplayer-observed assumptions tuned to the TCGplayer Twilight Masquerade pull-rate article. ACE SPEC hits are modeled as upgrades to the first reverse holo slot, while Illustration Rare, Special Illustration Rare, and Hyper Rare hits are handled as upgrades to the second reverse/premium slot.

Selling Fees

Per‑row shows combined pct + txn (txn = 2.5% processing). $0.30/order is added only in the summary.

Value Threshold

Changing this changes EV basis for TCGCSV Market, Low, or Direct Low prices.
Example: 0.25 removes any card valued under $0.25 from EV only if the toggle is on. Sift is applied after each pack is drawn.

EV Range (Monte Carlo)

Runs per summary update; higher counts smooth the bands but take longer.
Low/High = central quantiles measured from Monte Carlo pack openings.
