The confirmed Pitch Black card count
Pitch Black's printed checklist runs to 120 cards: an 84-card main set plus 36 secret rares numbered above it.
How the secret rares break down
The 36 secret rares split into 18 Ultra Rares, 11 Illustration Rares, 6 Special Illustration Rares and 1 Mega Hyper Rare — the Mega Darkrai ex chase card that closes out the set.
How that compares
A 120-card total makes Pitch Black one of the smaller Mega Evolution Series sets, but it still carries the same depth of secret rares as its predecessors, with more than 20 Trainer cards and over 35 special illustrations across the full checklist.
Planning a Pitch Black binder
A master set will run above 120 once reverse holos are counted alongside the numbered checklist. See a binder layout for planning a full set.
Out now, data pending. Pitch Black released on July 17, 2026. Our card database hasn't picked it up yet, so the figures here come from Pokémon's own announcements and the TCG press, checked August 2026 — not from card-by-card data. Exact counts follow once the cards land.
