Team Rocket Master Set

The Team Rocket Master Set contains 83 total cards: 17 holo rares, 17 rares, 24 uncommons, 24 commons, 1 secret rare. The Grand Master Set runs to 174 once the Unlimited printings and the 8 documented promo and error printings are counted — and every 1st Edition printing is priced below.

Team Rocket · 2000Where the TCG got a villain — and its first secret rare

Team Rocket arrived on April 24, 2000, the first expansion built around Dark Pokémon. The numbering is the tell that something is unusual: the cards run to 82, and the 83rd is a secret Dark Raichu 83/82 that never appeared on the pack. Two printings, 1st Edition and Unlimited.

What binder does 83 cards need?

Since the Team Rocket 1st Edition Master Set has a total of 83 cards you’ll need:

9-pocket binder — 10 dual-sided pages
12-pocket binder — 7 dual-sided pages

Always leave extra room — graded slabs, the Unlimited printing and the promo and error printings all need somewhere to go.

We use the Vault X Exo-Tec 9-pocket zip binder.

Your Team Rocket Master Set Questions, Answered

How many cards are in the Team Rocket Master Set?

A full Team Rocket Master Set contains:

17 holo rares
17 rares
24 uncommons
24 commons
1 secret rare

Total: 83 cards — 174 once you count every Team Rocket printing

What counts as a complete Team Rocket Master Set?

A complete Team Rocket Master Set is the 83 numbered cards, in 1st Edition, Unlimited, or both — they are the same set, and the black “Edition 1” stamp is the only difference between them.

The Dark Gyarados Prerelease promo, the two Kraft W-stamp cards, the no-holo Dark Dragonite and the thick-stamp Boss’s Way are usually treated as optional additions for a Grand Master Set.

How many binder pages do I need for a Team Rocket Master Set?

For a 83-card Team Rocket Master Set you’ll need:

✔ 9-pocket binder — 10 dual-sided pages
✔ 12-pocket binder — 7 dual-sided pages

If you are aiming for the 174-printing Grand Master Set:

✔ 9-pocket binder — 20 dual-sided pages
✔ 12-pocket binder — 15 dual-sided pages

Are promos part of a Team Rocket Master Set?

In short, no. Promos are released separately from the main numbered expansion — Dark Gyarados was the League Prerelease giveaway and the two W-stamp cards went out through Kraft in Australia.

Many collectors still add them, along with the Dark Dragonite no-holo error. That expanded version is often called a Grand Master Set.

How much does it cost to master Team Rocket?

Based on ungraded sold comps at PriceCharting, the 1st Edition Team Rocket Master Set totals $3,594.28 — that is every one of the 83 cards, not including promos and variants.

Prices move over time, so treat this as a current market estimate rather than a fixed checklist value. The cards to know are Dark Charizard #4 and Dark Dragonite #5; the secret Dark Raichu 83/82 is worth a look of its own.
