The latest Pokemon TCG expansion, Paradox Rift, introduces a ton of new Ancient and Future Pokémon to the game for the very first time. Check out all of them in this full card list for the new set!

Paradox Rift releases on November 3rd, 2023. I've been looking forward to this set for a long time ever since it was announced - it has some awesome Pokemon headlining the set as well as some amazing artwork to collect. It's a big set, too, combining the cards from three different Japanese sets into one big release.

Let's dive into the full card list and take a look at some of the best cards in the set. Or if you want to look back at some previous sets, here are the full setlists for Obsidian Flames and Scarlet & Violet 151.

The best cards in Paradox Rift

Paradox Rift is stuffed with all kinds of Ancient and Future cards. This is a brand new type of card introduced to the Pokémon TCG with this expansion, and it's the main focus of the set.

The main Ancient Pokémon is Roaring Moon, which is featured in one of the booster pack artworks and has its own special illustration rare featuring all kinds of Ancient Pokemon. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Iron Valiant gets the same special illustration treatment but with a ton of Future Pokémon instead.

Garchomp ex is also a big part of this set. Garchomp has a new Water-type Tera form, a fancy special illustration rare and even a golden hyper rare. Roaring Moon and Iron Valiant also have golden versions, too.

More special illustration rares include a gorgeous Altaria ex card, an intimidating Golisopod ex, and a bunch of trainers like the two Professors (Sada and Turo), Mela, Tulip, and Rika.

As for the illustration rares you can pretty much take your pick of any of them - they're all really cool, but some artworks might appeal to you more than others. I'm a big fan of cards like Groudon, Snorunt, Wimpod and Steelix, but they're all winners.

All Paradox Rift secret rares

We've got the full card list below, but if you want to take a look at the secret rares, we've organised each rarity for you below. I know I'll be chasing a lot of these secret rares, especially the special illustration rares.
