A Paradox Rift master set is 428 cards — every card plus its 162 reverse holos.
What a Paradox Rift master set includes
One of everything: all 266 numbered cards — the 182 base plus 84 secret rares — then every reverse holo, 162 of them. That sweeps in the 49 Illustration and Special Illustration Rares, the full-art cards that carry most of the value. The ones you have to land:
- Groudon (#199) — Illustration Rare (~$115.77)
- Altaria ex (#253) — Special Illustration Rare (~$60.67)
- Plusle (#193) — Illustration Rare (~$52.02)
- Minun (#194) — Illustration Rare (~$50.66)
- Morpeko (#206) — Illustration Rare (~$43.76)
- Roaring Moon ex (#251) — Special Illustration Rare (~$43.37)
The extras unique to Paradox Rift
Paradox Rift has no special pattern variants, so the master set is the 266-card checklist plus 162 reverse holos — no extra pattern foils to chase beyond the 84 secret rares.
Star Pokémon in the Paradox Rift master set
A master set means chasing every print of the set's headline Pokémon, not just one each:
- Groudon — Groudon (#199)
- Altaria — Altaria ex (#140), Altaria ex (#232), Altaria ex (#253)
- Plusle — Plusle (#193)
- Minun — Minun (#194)
- Morpeko — Morpeko (#206)
The Paradox Rift master-set total
All in, a complete Paradox Rift master set is 428 cards versus 182 for the base — about 2.4× the work, or roughly 48 pages in a 9-pocket binder. Sleeve and storage budget should target the larger number if you're going all the way on Paradox Rift.
