The Champion's Path secret rares everyone wants
The rarest is Gardevoir VMAX (#76), a Rare Rainbow. The priciest by market value is Charizard V (#79) at about $264.34 — so the scarcest pull and the most expensive one are different cards here.

Finishing the Champion's Path secret-rare run
Landing all 7 is the hard part of completing Champion's Path; they push the full checklist to 80 cards and a master set to 141. Most of the set's resale value sits in this 7-card band, so even a near-complete Champion's Path binder can be missing the bulk of its value if the secret rares aren't in yet.
