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

3 of the 177 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.

Which Burning Shadows cards share a name across several printings?

20 of the 50 cards listed above are reprints of just 8 names. Buying by name alone is how people end up with the wrong printing, because these share a name but not a set, a rarity or a price.

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. 72 of the 177 cards in Burning Shadows 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.

Counted across all 177 Burning Shadows cards on file. "Typical price" is the middle price inside that row.

The most common rarity alone covers 24.3% 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.

Burning Shadows prints 8 rarities, and the top three fill 61.0% 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 Fighting with 23 cards, and the thinnest type on file is Dragon with 4. A gap of 19 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 Burning Shadows Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Burning Shadows 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.

Resistance cuts incoming damage from that type. Only some Burning Shadows cards print one, which is why this count is smaller than the card total.

Standard and Expanded are the two tournament formats. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year while the card itself does not change.

Each track is the whole of the 177 Burning Shadows cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.

These rows are not slices of one whole — a card can be legal in Standard and carry an Ability at the same time, so each bar is read on its own.

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. 34 of the 177 cards here sit at that level, which is the argument for packing switch cards alongside them.

At the other end, 5 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 142 cards. The remaining 35 print no retreat cost at all — they never stand in the active spot, so they never retreat.

Counted on the 53 cards that carried a price on both the first and the last reading, so a card that only appeared recently is not in here.

Before you rely on these figures

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Burning Shadows 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.
