The Paldea Evolved Build & Battle Box was released as a prelude to the Paldea Evolved expansion and offered people the opportunity to experience the cards before their general release on June 9, 2023. Tournaments were typically held on the weekends of May 27-29 and June 3-4, 2023. Boxes could also be purchased from stores in the Prerelease Program from May 26, 2023; they were also included in copies of the Paldea Evolved Build & Battle Stadium, which were sold from June 23, 2023.

Each box included a ready-to-play 40-card deck plus four Paldea Evolved booster packs to potentially integrate useful cards into it. Decks comprised two of four possible groups of cards, including an alternate-art promotional card, as well as 17 basic Energy cards and an assortment of Trainer cards. The possible promotional cards included Baxcalibur, Tinkaton, Murkrow, and Pelipper. Paldea Evolved Build & Battle Boxes were categorized as Play Level 2.

The boxes could provide exclusive Non Holofoil versions of cards only available as Holofoil in Paldea Evolved booster packs: Lokix, Baxcalibur, Tinkaton, Boss's Orders, as well as both Professor Sada's version of Professor's Research and Professor Turo's version of Professor's Research from Scarlet & Violet.
