Check the Digimon set number and language before you buy in
Confirm the set number and the language version of the Digimon product in front of you, then decide whether a starter deck or boosters is the better first buy.
Key points
- Check the set number and language version before anything else.
- A starter deck plays out of the box; boosters chase singles.
- Bandai publishes Digimon, often shelved beside ONE PIECE.
Starter
Match number and language first. Then pick a starter deck or a booster. The deck is the shorter route to an actual game, and boosters are how you go after a card you have already decided you want.
Digimon is a Bandai line, so the shop that sold you a ONE PIECE deck is usually the one to ask. Wider coverage sits on the Digimon Card Game page (Cantonese), and the ONE PIECE equivalent is the ONE PIECE starter guide.
FAQ
Starter deck or boosters first?
Settle the set number and language version first. After that, a starter deck gets you playing sooner, while boosters make sense only when a specific card is the goal.
Who publishes the Digimon Card Game?
Bandai. That is also why shops tend to shelve it next to ONE PIECE, and why a counter carrying one line usually carries the other.
Do Digimon cards use Pokémon collector numbers?
No. Digimon does not share Pokémon collector numbers. Use the set and number printed on the Digimon card.
