Champion's Path

CPA · Sword & Shield · Released September 25, 2020 · 73 official cards · 80 total

Champion's Path is a Pokémon TCG set in the Sword & Shield series, released September 25, 2020. The checklist runs 73 numbered cards, plus 7 secret rares numbered past the printed set size. A complete set is 80 cards. Counting every printing — reverse holos, foil patterns, stamps — a master set is 134 variants, and a grand master set is 134.

Champion’s Path is a small set with an outsized reputation, built almost entirely around one card: the secret-rare Charizard VMAX 74/73, one of the most chased cards of the Sword & Shield era. Six more secret rares follow it, from Gardevoir VMAX to the Suspicious Food Tin at 80/73.

At 80 cards total it is one of the most approachable complete sets of its era — the difficulty is concentrated entirely at the top.
