Cards and rarities

Legends Awakened has 146 cards. Every card shows its number over the printed total along the bottom, as in "4/146". The cards print a set symbol, not a set code; the code here is the short one the catalog and TurnZero HQ file the set under.

The printed total is 146 and nothing is numbered above it. The seven Pokémon LV.X are 140 to 146. Set completion in TurnZero HQ counts a set against its printed total and keeps the secret rares apart, so finishing the main set and chasing the cards above it read as two separate goals.

What a complete set costs

One copy of every card in Legends Awakened, bought as singles, cost $1,809.84 on October 22, 2026. That is the third most expensive of the seven sets in the Diamond & Pearl series.

Complete set $1,809.84
Top three cards $588.23 (33%)

The three most valuable cards, Mewtwo LV.X, Dragonite and Mewtwo, come to $588.23, or 33% of the total. Without them the set costs $1,221.61. Of the 140 cards, 80 were under $2.00, together $62.74; the other 60 add up to $1,747.10.

Six cards had no TCGplayer price on file and aren't counted: Unown [J], Unown [R], Unown [U], Unown [V], Unown [W] and Unown [Y].

Each card is counted at its cheapest priced variant, usually a Normal copy rather than a Reverse Holofoil, or a stamped promo copy where the catalog prices one lower, at its TCGplayer market price. This is what it costs to buy the set as singles. It is not what opening packs returns, and not what a complete set would sell for, which after fees and the many cards worth cents would be noticeably less.

Playing it

The catalog marks every card in Legends Awakened as legal in neither Standard nor Expanded, the two formats Play! Pokémon sanctions. Expanded starts with the Black & White series in 2011.
