## Buying smart in Battle Styles

Tyranitar V anchors the high end, but Battle Styles has 0 Illustration and Special Illustration Rares and 20 secret rares in total, so there's a full value ladder beneath it. If Tyranitar V is out of budget, the runners-up above give you the same set at a fraction of the cost — and prices shift, so check a current sold-listings page before you buy or sell.
