The CS4aC master set in the Simplified Chinese Pokémon TCG comes to 295 slots against 184 cards in the set, so each card adds about 1.6 slots on average. Reverse holos make up 111 of them, normal prints 98 and holos 86. Laid out nine to a side, the full master set checklist fills 17 double-sided binder pages. It is a mid-sized job for a Sword & Shield era release dated March 1, 2024.
The CS4aC master set is built from three families only: Reverse Holo with 111 slots, Normal with 98 and Holo with 86. No stamped or special-edition families are involved, so the work is about finishes rather than hunting promotional prints. The reverse holo slots come from the common, uncommon and rare cards, which is why they form the largest family. A reverse holo carries the holographic pattern across the card body instead of only the art window, and each one is its own binder slot separate from the normal print of the same card.
| Variant family | Slots | Priced | Share of value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reverse Holo | 111 | 5 | <1% |
| Normal | 98 | 20 | 1.8% |
| Holo | 86 | 74 | 98% |

Shares of the master set’s priced value, from the slot prices in the checklist above.
At 295 slots, the CS4aC master set sits about equal to the Sword & Shield era median of 280 slots, so its size is typical for the era. Its master set value is another matter: it ranks 1st among the 15 comparable sets of its era. The neighbouring sets are far smaller jobs. The previous set, CS3.5C, has 95 slots and the next, CS4.5C, has 90 slots, and the master sets of both hold lower value than this one. Completing CS4aC is a different scale of project from either of them.
A CS4aC (九彩汇聚 朋) master set is one copy of every card AND every variant in the set — the 184 cards on this page, with their Normal, Reverse Holo and Holo prints each listed and priced on their own. Sign in and the checklist tracks what you own, in step with the Cardboard Alpha app.
The large NM-only figure is a complete catalog estimate when every printing has current NM pricing. LP, MP, HP, and DMG “and up” totals below it use the requested condition or a better available condition. These are summed reference prices, not a quote from one seller; a dash means the current market does not cover every printing yet.
“LP and up” means lightly played or better: the total uses LP when available, then NM as the better-condition fallback. The MP, HP, and DMG tiers follow the same pattern.
