Every Darkrai chase card in the Japanese sets on our shelf, what each one is worth and which box gives you a shot at it.

By Kai Chai · Updated

Abyss Eye Japanese Pokémon booster box
Key takeaways
  • The most valuable Darkrai card in the sets we stock is Mega Darkrai ex, Mega Ultra Rare (MUR) 118/081 from Abyss Eye, at about $358 AUD.
  • There are 4 Darkrai cards of Art Rare or higher across 2 of the sets we stock.
  • Abyss Eye has the most, with 3.
  • No card is guaranteed in any box, so the single is the only sure way to get one card.

Abyss Eye brought Mega Darkrai ex into the card game, with Darkrai holding the top two cards in that set. VSTAR Universe adds a Darkrai VSTAR Special Art Rare from the end of the Sword & Shield era.

The list covers every card of Art Rare rarity or higher. A card shown without a price sits outside the ten most valuable cards of its set.

Which set should you open for Darkrai?

  • Abyss Eye ($128.88): Mega Darkrai ex MUR, Mega Darkrai ex SAR and Mega Darkrai ex SR
  • VSTAR Universe ($328.88): Darkrai VSTAR SAR

No card is guaranteed in any box. Going by collector records a Special Art Rare turns up in roughly 1 box in 3 to 6 and a Mega Ultra Rare in about 1 box in 50 to 55. Each set has several Special Art Rares, so the odds of one particular card are a fraction of that. If one card is the goal, buying the single is the only sure way to get it, while our pull rates guide explains what a box does tend to hold.
