Pokémon GO has 10 secret rares — cards numbered above 78.
Where Pokémon GO's secret rares begin
Secret rares sit past the printed total of 78, so in Pokémon GO they run #79 to #88 — 10 cards, the hardest pulls and most of the set's value. By tier that's 16 Rare Holos, 8 Rare Ultras, 7 Rare Rainbows and 6 Rare Holo Vs.
The Pokémon GO secret rares everyone wants
The rarest is Dragonite VSTAR (#81), a Rare Rainbow. The priciest by market value is Mewtwo V (#72) at about $66.16 — so the scarcest pull and the most expensive one are different cards here.
- Mewtwo V (#72) — Rare Ultra (~$66.16)
- Mewtwo VSTAR (#79) — Rare Rainbow (~$54.29)
- Dragonite VSTAR (#81) — Rare Rainbow (~$50.68)
- Mewtwo VSTAR (#86) — Rare Secret (~$40.03)
- Radiant Charizard (#11) — Radiant Rare (~$26.97)
- Dragonite V (#76) — Rare Ultra (~$17.10)
Star Pokémon among Pokémon GO's secret rares

Finishing the Pokémon GO secret-rare run
Landing all 10 is the hard part of completing Pokémon GO; they push the full checklist to 88 cards and a master set to 142. Most of the set's resale value sits in this 10-card band, so even a near-complete Pokémon GO binder can be missing the bulk of its value if the secret rares aren't in yet.
