The best binder for Twilight Masquerade is a 9-pocket; the 167-card set fills about 19 pages, or 42 for a master set.
Why 9-pocket suits Twilight Masquerade
A 9-pocket binder shows a full 3×3 spread and sleeves Twilight Masquerade's 167 base cards in numbered order with no wasted slots. A 4-pocket is nice for a slim display of just the chase cards like Greninja ex, Perrin, Eevee and Carmine; a 12-pocket fits more per page but is bulkier to flip. For a full set, 9-pocket is the sweet spot.

Displaying the Twilight Masquerade chase cards
If you'd rather build a one-page showcase than a full binder, these are the cards worth front-and-center:
- Greninja ex (#214) — Special Illustration Rare (~$400.47)
- Perrin (#220) — Special Illustration Rare (~$185.48)
- Eevee (#188) — Illustration Rare (~$91.74)
- Carmine (#217) — Special Illustration Rare (~$72.33)
What that means for Twilight Masquerade
In a 9-pocket binder the base set fills 19 pages. Going for the full master set — all 373 cards including 147 reverse holos — pushes that to 42 pages, so budget a binder (or two) and the sleeves to match. Star Pokémon like Greninja, Eevee and Chansey are worth a dedicated spread of their own.
A common setup for Twilight Masquerade: one 9-pocket binder of about 19 pages for the base 167 cards, kept in number order, and a second binder for the 147 reverse holos and 59 secret rares. Premium side-loading sleeves are worth it for the 32 full-art chase cards.
