**Silver Tempest has 20 secret rares — cards numbered above 195.**

## Where Silver Tempest's secret rares begin

Secret rares sit past the printed total of 195, so in Silver Tempest they run #196 to #215 — 20 cards, the hardest pulls and most of the set's value. By tier that's 26 Rare Ultras, 15 Rare Holo Vs, 14 Rare Holos and 14 Rare Rainbows.

## The Silver Tempest secret rares everyone wants

The rarest is Lugia VSTAR (#202), a Rare Rainbow. The priciest by market value is Lugia V (#186) at about $518.40 — so the scarcest pull and the most expensive one are different cards here.

- [Lugia V (#186)](/card/swsh12-186) — Rare Ultra (~$518.40)
- [Lugia VSTAR (#202)](/card/swsh12-202) — Rare Rainbow (~$40.85)
- [Unown V (#177)](/card/swsh12-177) — Rare Ultra (~$31.83)
- [Regidrago V (#184)](/card/swsh12-184) — Rare Ultra (~$29.95)
- [Alolan Vulpix VSTAR (#197)](/card/swsh12-197) — Rare Rainbow (~$25.05)
- [Lugia VSTAR (#211)](/card/swsh12-211) — Rare Secret (~$23.56)

## Finishing the Silver Tempest secret-rare run

Landing all 20 is the hard part of completing Silver Tempest; they push the full checklist to 215 cards and a master set to 357. Most of the set's resale value sits in this 20-card band, so even a near-complete Silver Tempest binder can be missing the bulk of its value if the secret rares aren't in yet.
