The chase cards
Chaos Rising carries six Special Illustration Rares plus a gold Mega Hyper Rare at the very top — but the value is heavily concentrated in one Pokémon. These are the cards driving demand (AUD-normalised secondary estimates):
| Top chase (AUD secondary) | RRP / retail | Sealed now | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mega Greninja ex — Mega Hyper Rare gold (#122) | — | ~A$620 | Set-defining |
| Mega Greninja ex — Special Illustration Rare (#116) | — | ~A$491 | Elite |
| Cinccino ex — Special Illustration Rare | — | ~A$76 | Secondary |
| Mega Dragalge ex — Special Illustration Rare | — | ~A$67 | Secondary |
| Mega Floette ex — Special Illustration Rare | — | ~A$56 | Secondary |
Raw ungraded near-mint, indicative AUD secondary values (PriceCharting / TCGplayer / eBay-sold market data, July 2026). High-value chases move week to week.
AUD secondary-market estimates, converted from recent secondary trades — they vary by condition and over time. Note the Mega Greninja ex SIR has traded above the gold Mega Hyper Rare, unusual for the Mega-era: that’s artwork demand, not just rarity.
One detail stands out: value drops off sharply after Greninja — the next SIRs sit near A$76 and below. This is very much a one-grail set, and that grail is the whole thesis.
What the early market is telling us
Our read on any set is simple: value follows pull difficulty × character popularity. Chaos Rising is a textbook case. Mega Greninja ex sits at the hardest rung of a 122-card ladder — one of just six Special Illustration Rares — and Greninja is one of the most popular Pokémon ever printed, winning the first-ever Pokémon of the Year vote in 2020 with 140,559 votes, ahead of Lucario, Mimikyu and Charizard. That combination is why a single SIR comfortably exceeds the price of a sealed booster box. The honest counterpoint: this set is early, secondary data is thin, and the Greninja SIR has already cooled from a day-one peak (roughly A$920) to around A$491 as supply caught up — so the launch froth is deflating, not building.
🏆 The Grailborne Take
| Retail vs secondary (AUD) | RRP / retail | Sealed now | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeved Booster Pack | ~A$8.50 RRP (Target/Kmart/Big W) | A$11 at Grailborne | ↑ set premium |
| Booster Bundle (6 packs) | ~A$50 RRP (Target/Kmart/Big W) | A$69 at Grailborne | ↑ ~1.4× |
| Elite Trainer Box | ~A$85 RRP (Target/Kmart/Big W) | A$129 at Grailborne | ↑ ~1.5× |
Retail = AU big-box RRP (investment baseline); secondary = live Grailborne price. Booster boxes are hobby/online only, not stocked at Target/Kmart/Big W.
AU big-box RRP (Target/Kmart/Big W) shown where stocked — these sell through fast on release day, and secondary is where the set actually trades. Sealed locks today’s AUD price; Grailborne prices are live.
Our read — measured: a grail-led Mega-era set whose whole case rests on one card — a genuine A$491 Greninja SIR — plus tight Australian allocation and strong in-stock availability. We keep the Index honest at 70 because the set is unproven on the secondary market and the headline single has already cooled from its peak, so there’s more risk here than on an established set. If you believe in Greninja and the Mega era, sealed now is the right entry; if you want proven comparables, wait for the market to settle. Buy the format you’ll actually keep sealed.
Grailborne’s mission: as always, Grailborne strives to get modern Pokémon sets into the hands of collectors, investors and rippers — securing inventory in high volumes from the secondary market so there’s always something available for everyone.
