Overview
Unleashed, released May 12, 2010, is the second HGSS expansion with 96 cards. It continued the LEGEND card tradition with legendary beast pairings — Entei & Raikou LEGEND and Suicune & Entei LEGEND. The set also featured Prime cards and competitive staples for the HGSS format.
Best for
- Gen IV collectors sorting reverse holos and early modern chases
- collectors pricing Unleashed (2010, 96 cards) as DP / Platinum era cardboard — not as generic “old cards”
- people building around Tyranitar Prime / Prime without pretending bulk pays the same
Skip this path if
- you buy mixed “DP era” binders without sorting by set
- you expect every card in Unleashed to carry similar resale (bulk is bulk)
Common mistakes
If you only remember one thing about Unleashed: Tyranitar Prime / Prime is not interchangeable with every other print of those Pokemon. People still get burned by lumping every Diamond & Pearl–era set under one “DP” price sheet, then argue condition after they already overpaid. Confirm hgss2 / the set symbol before comps — “DP / Platinum era lot” language is how wrong products get mixed.
What to check first
Verify set membership (hgss2) and set symbol first — DP-era names get mangled in lots constantly. Condition pass on Tyranitar Prime / Prime before negotiation. Finish with a checklist gap list so you are not “completing” only the bulk.
Most valuable cards
Raikou & Suicune LEGEND (top #92 / bottom #93) and Entei & Raikou LEGEND (top #90 / bottom #91) are the premium pulls. Tyranitar Prime (#88) is the most valuable Prime card in the set. Kingdra Prime and Steelix Prime are also collected.
