## The cards collectors chase in Pitch Black

Every set has a handful of cards everyone's hunting. In Pitch Black — a Mega Evolution-series set with 36 secret rares and 17 full-art cards — the headliners, in rough order of demand, are:

- [Mega Darkrai ex (#120)](/card/me5-120) — Mega Hyper Rare
- [Mega Zeraora ex (#114)](/card/me5-114) — Special Illustration Rare
- [Mega Chandelure ex (#115)](/card/me5-115) — Special Illustration Rare
- [Mega Darkrai ex (#116)](/card/me5-116) — Special Illustration Rare
- [Morpeko ex (#117)](/card/me5-117) — Special Illustration Rare
- [Gladion's Final Battle (#118)](/card/me5-118) — Special Illustration Rare

## Which Pitch Black chase card leads?

Mega Darkrai ex is the card most collectors open packs for.

## Star Pokémon behind the Pitch Black chase

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

- **Mega Darkrai** — Mega Darkrai ex (#48), Mega Darkrai ex (#101), Mega Darkrai ex (#116), Mega Darkrai ex (#120)
- **Morpeko** — Morpeko ex (#55), Morpeko ex (#102), Morpeko ex (#117)

## Chasing them in Pitch Black

Pitch Black runs to 120 cards with 17 Illustration/Special Illustration Rares, but landing Mega Darkrai ex, Mega Zeraora ex and Mega Chandelure ex covers most of what collectors actually want — a far quicker goal than the full 194-card master set. The rarest single pull, Mega Darkrai ex (#120) (Mega Hyper Rare), rounds out the want-list.
