Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Paldea Evolved (PAL) landed in English on 9 June 2023 with 279 cards — 193 in the base set plus 86 secret rares. In Japan, that same card pool didn’t come from one set. It was split across three: SV1a Triplet Beat, SV2P Snow Hazard and SV2D Clay Burst, each on sale months before the English release.
SV1a Triplet Beat came first, on 10 March 2023, followed by SV2P Snow Hazard and SV2D Clay Burst together on 14 April 2023 — two to three months ahead of Paldea Evolved, and spread across two Japanese set codes and numbering schemes instead of one. Our Paldea Evolved Japanese card list maps the full three-set composition; this guide ranks the twelve chase cards specifically and shows the exact Japanese printing behind each one, with our own PSA 10 listings and current box prices.
Paldea Evolved (EN, 279 cards, 9 Jun 2023) draws its chase-card artwork from three Japanese sets released Mar–Apr 2023: SV1a Triplet Beat, SV2P Snow Hazard and SV2D Clay Burst. The cards below with a live PSA 10 listing on our site rank first, topped by PSA 10 Iono SAR (SV2D 096/071) (aggiornamento: esaurito — richiedi il riassortimento via Quick Order), currently listed at ¥102,586. Sealed Japanese boxes are currently listed at ¥9,880 via the SV2D Clay Burst booster box.
Prices are converted at ¥159/USD (September 2026). Every price below is what we currently list — never a market or auction estimate.
How We Ranked These
This list is ordered two ways, in sequence. First, any card with a live PSA 10 listing on our site goes to the top, ranked by that listing’s price — that puts both Iono prints, Dendra, Grusha, Skeledirge ex and Chien-Pao ex SAR at #1–#6. Everything after that follows the Japanese rarity tier printed on the card itself: Ultra Rare (gold) first, then Special Art Rare, then Art Rare.
We do not quote third-party market prices (TCGplayer, eBay or PriceCharting) anywhere in this article. Where we don’t currently list a graded copy, we say so plainly and point you to Quick Order instead of guessing at a number.

Domande frequenti
What is Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Paldea Evolved?
Paldea Evolved (PAL) is the English-language Pokémon TCG set released 9 June 2023 with 279 cards — 193 in the base set plus 86 secret rares.
Which Japanese sets was Paldea Evolved printed from?
Three: SV1a Triplet Beat (released 10 March 2023), and SV2P Snow Hazard and SV2D Clay Burst (both released 14 April 2023). Japan received this card pool two to three months ahead of the English release, split across separate set codes rather than one.
What is the highest-priced chase card on this list, and what does our PSA 10 copy cost?
Iono SAR, SV2D 096/071 — the highest-priced PSA 10 we currently list from these three sets, at ¥102,586. It corresponds to the English Iono Special Illustration Rare, PAL 269.
Do the English and Japanese versions of these chase cards use the same artwork?
Yes, for all twelve cards on this list, confirmed by matching the credited illustrator on the Japanese and English Limitless card pages.
Why do three Japanese sets map to one English set?
Japan’s Scarlet & Violet-era releases are smaller and more frequent than the English releases, which periodically combine several Japanese sets’ card pools into one larger release. Paldea Evolved combines SV1a, SV2P and SV2D into a single 279-card English set.
Where can I buy the Japanese SV2P, SV2D and SV1a cards from Tokyo?
Sealed boxes and select PSA 10 singles are listed directly on our site; anything not currently listed, including the sold-out SV1a Triplet Beat box, can be sourced through our Quick Order page, which we use to build mixed orders shipped from Tokyo.
