The most coveted Pokémon set of all time, this partially complete Master Skyridge Set is just missing 5 cards from a complete set but does contain all of the highly collectable crystal Pokémon. You will be getting every holo, all but two non holo rares, every common and uncommon and all but three reverse holo and more importantly EVERY CRYSTAL Pokémon - for a total of 327 cards. &nbsp;With a PSA 10 Crystal Charizard recently selling for over $32,000 this set has done nothing but increase in price over the last six months! &nbsp;The set has just 5 missing cards:&nbsp; Gyarados #11, Umbreon #32, Reverse holo Rhyhorn #91, Reverse holo Sandshrew #92 and reverse holo Seel #94.&nbsp;The cards belonged to an incredibly dedicated collector with the cards ranging from Near Mint to Light Play but the vast majority are all VLP to Near Mint. A portion of the holos have undergone some curling but every holo is double sleeved and comes complete in a Vault X 12-Pocket binder. &nbsp;The Crystal Celebi and Charizard would be considered Light Play to Near Mint, they are scratch and whitening free but have signed of edge warping. *Please note that the Alakazam holo has a small amount of damage along the right edge of the card.
