About the Set

HS Unleashed centres on the Johto legendary beasts. Its three Pokémon LEGEND each pair two beasts — Entei & Raikou, Raikou & Suicune, and Suicune & Entei — filling cards 90 to 95 as six halves. Six Pokémon Prime sit at 84–89, and a secret-rare Alph Lithograph numbered TWO closes the set.

How LEGEND cards work: each LEGEND is a single card split across two halves, numbered separately. You need both halves in play together to use it, so each half appears as its own entry in the gallery below.

Prime, LEGEND & the Alph Lithograph

HS Unleashed had a single print run. Its chase cards are the three Pokémon LEGEND, the six Prime and the secret-rare Alph Lithograph.

Collecting & Where to Buy

HS Unleashed is out of print and trades on the secondary market. Common singles are inexpensive, while the three Pokémon LEGEND and the six Prime — Tyranitar especially — carry the strongest premiums.

Collector tip: LEGEND cards are sold as halves as often as pairs — confirm whether a listing is for the top half, the bottom half or the complete card before buying.
