Most cards in any set are worth well under a dollar raw; the money is in the holo rares, first-print editions and high grades above. A PSA 10 can be worth ten to a hundred times the raw card, so check centering, corners, edges and surface before you decide whether grading is worth it (see card grading). Prices move with the market; use them as a reference, not an offer.
How to tell a card is from Paldean Fates
- Unlike Shining Fates and Crown Zenith, this set's Shiny secret cards are NOT given a separate 'SV'/'GG'-style prefix; they simply continue the main set's numbering past 091 (all still printed as 'xxx/091') up to 245/091.
- Regular Shiny Pokémon cards use a distinct 'S' rarity label, while Shiny Pokémon ex cards reuse their prior Full Art artwork under an 'SSR' rarity label.
- An independent card database confirms card No. 1 of this set carries Regulation Mark G.
Editions and variants
- Charizard ex Special Collection exclusive Cosmos Holo print: Card 007/091 (Charmander) exists in a Cosmos Holo finish found only in the 'Charizard ex Special Collection' product, in addition to its regular pack-pulled print.
Often confused with
- [Shining Fates](/lookup/pokemon-sets/shining-fates): All three sets share the '[Adjective] Fates' branding and a Shiny-Pokémon secret subset, but only Paldean Fates numbers its shiny cards by simply continuing the main sequence (092/091 onward) instead of using a separate 'SV' prefix.
Notes on this entry
The set's own Bulbapedia page contains an editor comment (hidden HTML comment, not shown to readers) claiming a '130+-card Shiny Vault subset', but the live card list on the same page does not use any 'SV'-prefixed numbering — all 245 cards share the same '/091' denominator, with Shiny Rare cards starting at 092/091. This record follows the actual card-list numbering rather than the outdated hidden comment.
Checks that apply to any Pokémon card
- Bottom-left or bottom-right corner: the set symbol and the collector number (e.g. 4/102) tell you the set; older cards have no symbol at all, which itself narrows them to Base Set.
- Left of the number: a 1st Edition stamp, if present, sits below the art on WOTC-era cards.
- Regulation mark (a letter in a box near the bottom, D through H so far) dates modern cards to a two-year window.
- Back of the card: the blue Poké Ball back has changed little since 1999; a washed-out, blurry or wrongly colored back is the first sign of a fake.
How to photograph it for identification
Lay the card flat on a dark surface in daylight, straight on, with the whole card in frame, then a close-up of the bottom edge where the set symbol, number and any edition stamp sit. Tilt holo cards under the light for a second shot to show the foil pattern. Photograph the back too. The app reads the card and set; the edition and rarity checks above tell you which version you have.
