**Paradox Rift has 162 cards with a reverse holo version.**

## Reverse holos in Paradox Rift

A reverse holo foils the card body instead of the artwork, giving the same card two finishes. Paradox Rift has 162 reverse holo cards, mostly from its 81 Commons, 54 Uncommons and 27 non-holo Rares — 162 cards in those everyday tiers. Even staples for Groudon, Altaria, Plusle and Minun usually get one.

## Star Pokémon to grab reverse copies of 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)

## Why Paradox Rift's reverse holos matter

None of these 162 show on the base checklist of 182, so they're extra cards to track when finishing Paradox Rift. There are no pattern variants in Paradox Rift, so reverse holos are the main extra layer. Counted in, a full Paradox Rift master set is 428 cards — about 48 9-pocket pages versus 21 for the base set.

By contrast the top pulls — Groudon, Altaria ex and Plusle — come as full-art rares, not reverse holos, so they sit outside this 162-card pool. The reverse run is the cheap everyday cards: lots of slots, low cost.

## Collecting the Paradox Rift reverse holos

At 162 cards, the reverse-holo set is roughly 89% the size of Paradox Rift's 182-card base — a whole second pass through the everyday slots. They sleeve into about 18 extra 9-pocket pages, so factor that in before committing to a full Paradox Rift master set.
