The hardest part of the Majestic Dawn master set is not its size. The 241 slots sit on top of just 100 cards, with the official count also at 100, so each card adds about 2.4 slots on average. Normal prints account for 123 of those slots, reverse holos for 97 and holos for 21. Laid out nine to a side, the full run fills 14 double-sided binder pages, a modest job for a Diamond & Pearl expansion in the English-language Pokémon TCG, released on May 1, 2008.
The Majestic Dawn master set checklist is built mostly from two large families: Reverse Holo with 96 slots and Normal with 82, followed by Holo with 18. Reverse holos are found across Common, Uncommon, Rare and Rare Holo cards, which is why that family runs so large. The remaining slots are stamped Normal prints: Normal Platinum with 7, Normal Countdown Calendar with 6 and Normal Dylan Lefavour with 6, plus smaller families named for other players. A stamped family simply means the same card printed with an added mark, and each one takes its own binder slot.

As of October 24, 2026, 233 of the 241 slots carry a price, and the Majestic Dawn master set cost is top-heavy. The ten most valuable slots hold 40 percent of the total, while the lower-value half of the priced slots adds up to only 4 percent. By finish, holos hold 42 percent, reverse holos 36 percent and normal prints 22 percent, so the 21 holo slots outweigh the 123 normal ones. Condition matters too: an LP and up master set sits 30 percent below the Near Mint total, and an MP and up set sits 41 percent below it.

Shares of the master set’s priced value, from the slot prices in the checklist above.
The Majestic Dawn master set concentrates its difficulty in a handful of holos: the Rare Holo LV.X Glaceon, the Rare Holo LV.X Leafeon, the Rare Holo Mewtwo and the Rare Holo Glaceon. Fifth in value order is the surprise, the Normal Countdown Calendar Turtwig, a Common that is a variant slot rather than the card's main print. Together these five slots hold 29 percent of the master set's total value, so finishing them decides most of the job. Four of the five are plain holo prints, which makes the Countdown Calendar stamp the odd one out.
At 241 slots, the Majestic Dawn master set is about 0.9 times the era median of 270 slots, a lighter checklist than most Diamond & Pearl sets. By master set value it ranks 3rd among the 11 comparable sets of its era. The previous set, Great Encounters, runs to 247 slots and its master set holds lower value, while the next set, Legends Awakened, is a larger 323-slot job that also holds lower value. Majestic Dawn is the smaller and higher-value master set of the three.

A Majestic Dawn master set is one copy of every card AND every variant in the set — the 100 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.
