The cost of the M5: Abyss Eye master set is concentrated in a small corner of a modest job. The Japanese Pokémon TCG set released on May 22, 2026, in the Mega era, and its master set takes 118 slots for 118 cards, so each card adds exactly one slot. Normal prints account for 65 of those slots and holos for 53. There are no reverse holo or stamped extras to hunt, and the whole master set checklist fits in 7 double-sided binder pages at nine cards a side.
The M5: Abyss Eye master set is built from just two families: Normal, with 65 slots, and Holo, with 53. That makes it a plain master set for the Japanese Pokémon TCG, with no reverse holo layer and no stamped or edition-marked prints to track. A normal slot is the standard non-foil print of a card, while a holo slot is the foil print, which in this set covers the higher rarity tiers. Completion here is a matter of owning each card once in its correct finish.
| Variant family | Slots | Priced | Share of value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | 65 | 65 | 2.1% |
| Holo | 53 | 53 | 98% |
Value in the M5: Abyss Eye master set is heavily top-loaded. Holo slots hold 98 percent of the total value while normal prints hold only 2 percent, and the ten most valuable slots alone account for 85 percent. The lower-value half of the priced slots adds up to just 2 percent, so most of the binder is filler by value. All 118 slots carry a price, so the master set cost is fully mapped, as of October 24, 2026.

Shares of the master set’s priced value, from the slot prices in the checklist above.
Five holo slots define the difficulty of the M5: Abyss Eye master set. In value order they are Mega Darkrai ex as a Mega Ultra Rare, then the Special Art Rare prints of Mega Darkrai ex, Morpeko ex, Gwynn and Mega Zeraora ex. Together they hold 77 percent of the master set's total value. All five are the main holo print of their card rather than a variant, so there is no hidden alternate slot here, and Mega Darkrai ex takes both of the top two places, at its Mega Ultra Rare and Special Art Rare tiers.
At 118 slots, the M5: Abyss Eye master set is about equal to the Mega era median of 117, so it is an average-sized job for its era. By master set value it ranks 6th among the 9 comparable sets of the era. The previous set, M4: Ninja Spinner, runs to 120 slots and holds similar value, while the next set, M6: Storm Emeralda, is slightly smaller at 116 slots but its master set holds higher value.

A M5: Abyss Eye master set is one copy of every card AND every variant in the set — the 118 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.
