How we rank them

Chase here means what sells highest: the 15 highest raw medians in the set. Each price is the median of real completed sales of the English print, which beats list prices and launch-week estimates, over the shortest window with enough sales. 127 of the 295 cards, all Commons and Uncommons, are outside our sales tracking, and the jumbo Mega Hawlucha ex has no sale on file, so the ranking covers the other 168. None of the Commons and Uncommons shows more than $0.71 on the Ascended Heroes set page, which lists the whole set, and the jumbo card is not listed there, as of November 7, 2026.

Close pairs can swap places. The Tera Pikachu ex leads the gold Mega Charizard Y ex by a few dollars over 7 days, and the gold card leads over 30 and 90 days; N's Zoroark ex and Lillie's Clefairy ex swap the same way over 90 days:

Raw medians of real completed sales of the English print, as of November 7, 2026.

The bottom of the ranking is tighter still: from Mega Scrafty ex at $36.67 to Marnie's Grimmsnarl ex at $31.90, eight cards sit within $5 of each other, and the next card, the Mega Attack Rare Mega Dragonite ex, sells for $25.66. Five of them trade places from one window to the next:

Raw medians of real completed sales of the English print, as of November 7, 2026. Mega Diancie ex's four sales of the last 7 days give no 7-day median, so its price is the 30-day one. The ranking above shows the 15 highest prices of the day, so a card from below can enter it.

Pull odds: what is known

The publisher prints no pull rates for English packs. These come from one count of more than 2,000 English packs, reported February 24, 2026:

One given card assumes equal odds inside the tier.

The sample is small for the rarest tiers: the count gives the two Mega Hyper Rares 0.19%, plus or minus 0.18%, so treat 1 in 540 as rough. The Mega Attack Rare, new in English with this set, takes the place of an Ultra Rare in the packs where it appears, which is why Ultra Rares come out about 1 pack in 21, against 1 in 12 in Chaos Rising.

Some packs are God Packs: three Mega Attack Rares and seven Special Illustration Rares in a single pack, as collectors who opened them have shown. The count above found none, and the publisher gives no odds for them.

Ascended Heroes has no booster box. Its packs come in Elite Trainer Boxes of 9, Booster Bundles of 6, Mega ex boxes of 4 and other collections (how packs are sold). At these rates, a Booster Bundle holds a Special Illustration Rare about once in 12 bundles, one given Special Illustration Rare takes about 256 bundles on average, and one given gold card about 180.

Which card sells highest in PSA 10?

Raw, the gold Mega Charizard Y ex sells below four Special Illustration Rares. In PSA 10 it leads the set, on thin evidence: its 3 copies sold since October went for a median $2,105, two at auction, against $1,550 for the 24 sales of Mega Gengar ex and $1,675 for the 9 of the tree Pikachu. Far fewer gold cards reach the top grade:

PSA population as of October 1, 2026; sales from October 1 to November 6, 2026, read one by one, with a sale listed in euros converted at the November 7, 2026 rate. Slabs only, never an ungraded copy listed as a PSA 10 contender. Slabs sold on an accepted offer are left out, because the listing does not show the price paid.

PSA gave a 10 to 20% of the gold Mega Charizard Y ex it graded and 18% of the gold Mega Dragonite ex, against 47% to 71% for the 22 Special Illustration Rares. CGC's counts of November 1, 2026 point the same way: 32% of 507 graded gold Mega Charizard Y ex reached a 10 or Pristine 10, against 72% of 713 Mega Gengar ex. These counts show what came back from the grader, not why, and collectors may send in different copies of each card. The gold cards of Chaos Rising and Pitch Black show the same gap.

The low share does not always pay. The gold Mega Dragonite ex's 4 PSA 10 sales since October, $631 to $950, sit close to the 15 of its Special Illustration Rare, $767 to $1,450, though it sells for less than half as much raw.

One Illustration Rare holds its own in the top grade: Psyduck, by REND. PSA had graded 21,893 copies by October 1, 2026, more than any Special Illustration Rare of the set, and its 59 PSA 10 sales since October went for a median $200, against $42.71 raw. Counts for every graded card are in the Ascended Heroes pop report.

How prices moved since release

Weekly raw medians of real completed sales, with the number of sales in parentheses, converted at 1 EUR = 1.1165 USD (November 7, 2026). The set came out on January 30, 2026, and Elite Trainer Boxes on February 20. Our sales tracking covers each of these cards from the week of March 23 at the latest; before it, several of them have only one or two sales a week on file. Best week is each card's highest weekly median from release to the week of October 26, which ended on November 1, on any number of sales; the charts leave out weeks of one or two sales.

All 15 fell from their best week, by 41% to 64%. Eleven of them peaked between April 13 and June 15, 2026, more than two months after release; the Booster Bundle and the Mega ex boxes came out on April 24. The other four sold highest in their first two weeks on sale, three of them on one or two sales. Measured from the week of March 23 instead, all 15 are down too, from 14% for the tree Pikachu to 48% for the gold Mega Charizard Y ex. Our Pitch Black chase cards and why Pokémon cards cost so much show the same slide after release.

Open packs or buy singles?

For one given card, buy the single. As of November 7, 2026, a pack costs about $11.82 in a Booster Bundle ($70.90 for 6, 48 sales over 7 days), $13.37 in an Elite Trainer Box ($120 for 9, 130 sales in the 7 days to October 30) and $11.15 to $14.29 loose (6 sales over 7 days, 44 over 30). At the bundle price, the average 1,533 packs for one given Special Illustration Rare cost about $18,110, against $674 for Mega Gengar ex, and the average 1,080 for one given gold card about $12,760, against $250 for Mega Charizard Y ex.

For the fun of opening, expect to get back about a third of the cost in these cards. At those odds and medians, an average pack holds about $3.95 of Double Rares and above:

As of November 7, 2026, on all 117 cards of these tiers. Odds from the count of more than 2,000 packs; God Packs left out. Rares, lower cards and reverse holos are left out too, as are selling fees and shipping.

That is 33% of the $11.82 bundle price; the Special Illustration Rares carry 47% of it. Our best packs for rare cards ranking counts only cards at $100 or more, at September 24 prices, so its returns do not compare with this table.
