## Star Pokémon behind the Paradox Rift chase

Most of these pulls belong to the set's headline Pokémon. Each marquee name and its prints in Paradox Rift:

- **Groudon** — Groudon (#199)
- **Altaria** — Altaria ex (#140), Altaria ex (#232), Altaria ex (#253)
- **Plusle** — Plusle (#193)
- **Minun** — Minun (#194)
- **Morpeko** — Morpeko (#206)

## Chasing them in Paradox Rift

Paradox Rift runs to 266 cards with 49 Illustration/Special Illustration Rares, but landing Groudon, Altaria ex and Plusle covers most of what collectors actually want — a far quicker goal than the full 428-card master set. The rarest single pull, Roaring Moon ex (#262) (Hyper Rare), rounds out the want-list.
