What a Temporal Forces master set includes
One of everything: all 218 numbered cards — the 162 base plus 56 secret rares — then every reverse holo, 140 of them. That sweeps in the 32 Illustration and Special Illustration Rares, the full-art cards that carry most of the value. The ones you have to land:
- Gastly (#177) — Illustration Rare (~$112.48)
- Morty's Conviction (#211) — Special Illustration Rare (~$78.34)
- Raging Bolt ex (#208) — Special Illustration Rare (~$71.71)
- Gengar ex (#193) — Ultra Rare (~$71.32)
- Walking Wake ex (#205) — Special Illustration Rare (~$63.62)
- Sawsbuck (#166) — Illustration Rare (~$60.84)
The extras unique to Temporal Forces
Temporal Forces has no special pattern variants, so the master set is the 218-card checklist plus 140 reverse holos — no extra pattern foils to chase beyond the 56 secret rares.

The Temporal Forces master-set total
All in, a complete Temporal Forces master set is 358 cards versus 162 for the base — about 2.2× the work, or roughly 40 pages in a 9-pocket binder. Sleeve and storage budget should target the larger number if you're going all the way on Temporal Forces.
