Destined Rivals (SV10) is the Scarlet & Violet set that finally let Team Rocket and famous trainers headline their own cards — and it produced one of the most chased Special Illustration Rares of the era in Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex. Here’s exactly what’s in the box, which cards carry the value, and how the market has actually moved for Australian collectors.
The set at a glance
What to buy — in stock now
Every product below links straight to its Grailborne page with live AUD pricing. These are the sealed items currently on the shelf, from a single sleeved pack to the full booster box for serious holds.
What’s in the Elite Trainer Box
The ETB is the core opener — nine packs plus the set’s exclusive promo and accessories:
- 9 booster packs — your shots at the ex, Illustration Rare and Special Illustration Rare line-up.
- Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet full-art promo — its Illustration Rare was cut from the main set and made ETB-exclusive, so you can’t pull it from boosters.
- Accessories — card sleeves, energy cards, dice, condition markers and a player’s guide.
The chase cards
Destined Rivals is carried by its Team Rocket and trainer-owned Special Illustration Rares. These are the cards setting the secondary market — AUD estimates, and the top chase comfortably exceeds a sealed ETB:
| Top chase (AUD secondary) | RRP / retail | Sealed now | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex — Special Illustration Rare | — | ~A$860 | Set-defining |
| Cynthia’s Garchomp ex — Special Illustration Rare | — | ~A$432 | Elite |
| Ethan’s Ho-Oh ex — Special Illustration Rare | — | ~A$307 | High demand |
| Team Rocket’s Nidoking ex — Special Illustration Rare | — | ~A$178 | Strong |
| Team Rocket’s Crobat ex — Special Illustration Rare | — | ~A$118 | Rising |
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, vary by condition and over time. Mewtwo ex is the box-art / sleeve card — not the ETB promo (that’s Wobbuffet) — yet it has run further than every other card in the set.
A clean tell on where demand sits: Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex SIR pairs one of the rarest slots in the set with arguably the most iconic Pokémon ever printed, and it has behaved accordingly — climbing while softer cards in the same set drifted. That divergence, the marquee chase rising while filler settles, is the signature of genuine collector demand rather than blanket speculation.
🏆 The Grailborne Take
| Retail vs secondary (AUD) | RRP / retail | Sealed now | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Booster Pack | ~A$8.50 RRP (Target/Kmart/Big W) | A$21–22 at Grailborne | ↑ above retail |
| Elite Trainer Box | ~A$85 RRP (Target/Kmart/Big W) | A$239 at Grailborne | ↑ well above |
| Booster Box | ~A$306 RRP (hobby/online — not big-box) | A$819 at Grailborne | ↑ ~2.9× |
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, and secondary is where the set actually trades. Grailborne prices are live AUD.
Our read — confident but measured: a popular, well-loved Scarlet & Violet set with a genuine grail chase (~A$860 Mewtwo ex) and deep Team Rocket nostalgia. The strength and demand are real. The one honest brake is the size of the print run — this is a patient, steady hold rather than a fast appreciator. 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.
