The 50 most expensive Guardians Rising cards on file, dearest first. The badge on each card is its market price.

1 of the 180 cards on file carry no published price, so they are counted in every total on this page but are not drawn here rather than shown with a guessed figure.

The grid above runs dearest first. This list runs in printing order — by card number inside the set — so a card can be found the way it sits in a binder rather than by what it costs.

Each row opens that card's own price page.

the real reason to run one

A rule box card carries a printed rule that hands the opponent an extra prize card when it is knocked out. 71 of the 180 cards in Guardians Rising carry one.

The count is read from the printed rule on the card face, so it covers ex, V, GX and every other rule box wording without needing a list of names.

Rare Holo GX14 7.8%$2.70
Rare Secret9 5.0%$18.29

Counted across all 180 Guardians Rising cards on file. "Typical price" is the middle price inside that row.

The most common rarity alone covers 23.9% of the set. The thicker that layer is, the less it costs to put a first deck together — the frame gets built out of cards that fall out of packs, and the scarce ones are kept for the slots that decide a game.

Guardians Rising prints 8 rarities, and the top three fill 61.7% of the set between them. The other 5 split the remaining 69 cards, which is the usual shape: the scarcer the tier, the more tiers there are and the fewer cards sit in each.

By energy type the set leans on Water with 28 cards, and the thinnest type on file is Darkness with 5. A gap of 23 cards between the widest and the narrowest type is what decides whether this set can start a deck of any colour or only feeds two of them.

How much HP and damage Guardians Rising Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Guardians Rising card prints the same number or they run from one end of the scale to the other. These five points show which of the two is happening.

Trainer and energy cards carry no HP or attack, so they are left out of these counts rather than entered as zero. "Biggest attack" is the largest printed damage number on the card, before any condition the attack text adds.

Half of these cards sit between 70 and 170 HP. The distance between the two ends is what a single average would have hidden.

Which Guardians Rising Pokémon cards print a resistance?

Resistance is the rarer of the two printed match-ups: only 40 of the 180 Guardians Rising cards on file carry one at all, and the rest simply leave the box empty.

A card that costs three energy or more to retreat is stuck in practice: paying it empties the board of the energy that was meant to attack. 36 of the 180 cards here sit at that level, which is the argument for packing switch cards alongside them.

At the other end, 4 cards retreat for free. Those are the ones that open a game, because moving them out costs nothing that was going to be spent on an attack.

The rows above add up to 148 cards. The remaining 32 print no retreat cost at all — they never stand in the active spot, so they never retreat.

Guardians Rising Pokémon cards — frequently asked questions

How many Guardians Rising Pokémon cards are there?

There are 180 Guardians Rising cards in this archive, and 179 of them carry a price. A set is the expansion a card was printed in, and every card in the card files this site reads names exactly one. Sorting by set puts each release back together the way it was sold, so a card can be read next to the cards it shared a pack with.

How much is a Guardians Rising Pokémon card worth?

The typical one costs $0.60. Across the 179 priced cards the range runs from $0.21 to $173.35, so the group price is a starting point rather than a valuation of any one card.

What is the most expensive Guardians Rising Pokémon card?

Sylveon-GX 158 from Guardians Rising, at $173.35. It is 289× the typical price of the group.

Are Guardians Rising Pokémon cards rare?

By price they rank No. 108 of 145 sets, with 37 cheaper than this one. By size the group holds 180 of the 20,444 English cards on file, or 0.9%. Those two together are what "rare" usually means in practice — few of them, and dear because of it.

Do all Guardians Rising Pokémon cards have a price?

No. 179 of the 180 carry a price on file. The rest have never been listed at a price this archive could read, so they are counted in the card total but left out of every price figure rather than guessed at.

Where can I see every Guardians Rising Pokémon card?

The list on this page holds the 50 most expensive of them, dearest first, and each card opens its own price page. The remaining 130 carry no published price, which is why they are not drawn.

How often are Guardians Rising Pokémon card prices updated?

Prices are read once a day from public marketplace listings. The figures on this page were read on August 14, 2026. Which cards belong to this group comes from openly published card files and changes only when a new set is added.

Are Guardians Rising Pokémon cards going up in value?

Over the last 11 months the typical Guardians Rising card rose from $0.45 to $0.60, a change of +33.3%. That is the middle of the whole group, so it describes an ordinary card of this kind rather than the headline one at the top.

How much does a cheap Guardians Rising Pokémon card cost?

One in four Guardians Rising cards costs $0.37 or less and the cheapest on file is $0.21. Three in four cost $5.37 or less, so the cards past that point are the exception rather than the rule for this group.

Which Guardians Rising Pokémon cards are worth the most?

Sorted by rarity, Rare Rainbow is the dearest kind of Guardians Rising card: 15 of them are on file and the middle one costs $21.75. The table on this page lists every rarity in the group beside its own typical price.

What is the highest HP on a Guardians Rising Pokémon card?

The highest printed HP among Guardians Rising cards is 250, and the lowest is 30. The typical one is 110 HP, with half of them between 70 and 170 — figures counted from the 148 cards in this group that print an HP value.

Are Guardians Rising Pokémon cards legal in tournaments?

5 of the 180 Guardians Rising cards are legal in Standard today and 180 in Expanded — 2.8% and 100.0% of the group. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year even though the cards do not change.

What are Guardians Rising Pokémon cards weak to?

Most often Metal — 23 of the 136 Guardians Rising cards that print a weakness take double damage from it, with Fighting next at 22 cards. Weakness is printed per card, so the group tendency is a guide and the card itself is the answer.

Which Guardians Rising Pokémon card rose the most this year?

Rayquaza 106 from Guardians Rising, which went from $1.73 to $12.44 — a change of +619.1% between August 14, 2025 and August 14, 2026. It is one of 59 Guardians Rising cards that carried a price on both days.

Before you rely on these figures

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Guardians Rising cards, taken from a daily snapshot of public marketplace listings read on August 14, 2026. They are not offers, they exclude shipping, duty and marketplace fees, and they move. Counts cover only the English cards this site holds on file. Graded prices, population counts, sealed product values and pack odds are not published on this site because no free commercial source provides them.
