About スターバース (Sword & Shield series, S9)

スターバース (Sword & Shield series, S9) numbers 100 cards on its printed run, and CardTrack's Japanese catalogue holds 127 in total: the extra 27 are secret rares whose collector numbers sit above 100. The set covers 81 different Pokémon. By rarity the cards split into 8 tiers: Common (44), Uncommon (34), Super Rare (16), Rare (10), Hyper Rare (8), Double Rare (8), Triple Rare (4) and Ultra Rare (3).

The tracked cards add up to about $569, and the 12 most valuable of them carry 80% of that. The most valuable card is the Charizard (リザードンV) #103/100 at $199.29 raw, around $315 in PSA 10, while the median card is worth about $0.39. 41 cards carry a PSA 10 price; across the cards with both figures, a PSA 10 copy sells for about 12.6× the raw price at the median.

81 illustrators are credited across the set, led by 5ban Graphics (9), N-DESIGN Inc. (4) and PLANETA Mochizuki (4). Raw prices are CardTrack's near-mint figure for the Japanese printing; graded ladders come from CardTrack's graded-price feed, and 51 of the 127 cards have completed eBay sales behind them. Cards with a graded ladder but no raw price are shown at their PSA 10 value so they still sort. CardTrack also tracks 2 sealed products for this set, led by the Star Birth Booster Box at about $146.75.
