Twilight Masquerade Chase Cards: Greninja and 4 Binder Routes
Greninja is the headline. The better question is which small group will make you want to open this binder again.
The clear Twilight Masquerade chase card is Greninja ex 214/167. It led the full Twilight Masquerade production display-price list in BinderDex's Collectr Near Mint Holofoil snapshot checked September 1–2, 2026. The card rail and price readout below contain that full-set snapshot's five highest rows. Greninja is the obvious headline; it does not make the rest of the set a supporting cast.
Twilight Masquerade is a Kitakami set built around Ogerpon in four Pokémon ex types. It released May 24, 2024. The English numbered checklist runs from the 167-card base through 226/167, for 226 loaded numbered cards on the BinderDex Twilight Masquerade set page. The dated board answers the market question; the numbering organizes the binder routes.

The current five-card read
These are BinderDex display prices, not completed-sale evidence, offers, or advice. They are a dated read of Collectr's Near Mint Holofoil rows rather than a prediction about a specific copy, condition, or future outcome.

Greninja is the clear current chase because it led the full Twilight Masquerade display-price list; this card rail and readout contain that list's five highest rows in the dated BinderDex snapshot. That fact answers a market-order question, not a binder question. For the latter, Twilight Masquerade is unusually generous: its numbered runs, connected illustration, and Kitakami characters give four different pages a reason to exist.
The Pokemon chase-cards explainer is useful background if the word “chase” is doing too much work in your own collecting plan. For another Scarlet & Violet set where a price board and a collector board answer different questions, see the Surging Sparks chase-card guide. When it is time to log a card, use the full set name and collector number in your BinderDex collection tracker; a familiar Pokémon name alone is not an exact printing.

Route 1: the five-card Ogerpon and Greninja SIR sequence
The cleanest numbered route is Teal Mask Ogerpon ex 211/167, Hearthflame Mask Ogerpon ex 212/167, Wellspring Mask Ogerpon ex 213/167, Greninja ex 214/167, and Cornerstone Mask Ogerpon ex 215/167. It is five consecutive Special Illustration Rares: three Ogerpon masks, Greninja as the deliberate interruption, then Cornerstone Mask Ogerpon ex as the closing card.
Five consecutive Special Illustration Rares, filed in collector-number order from 211/167 to 215/167.
The four Ogerpon cards share illustrator Yano Keiji, which gives the masks a family resemblance even as their types and settings change. Greninja is by akagi and deliberately breaks the visual continuity: that is the point. The sequence begins as a set-specific Ogerpon study, lets Greninja interrupt at 214/167, and closes on Cornerstone Mask Ogerpon ex at 215/167. Keep it in number order so the interruption reads like a chosen centerpiece rather than a filing mistake.
Route 2: Hisuian Growlithe and Perrin, one reflected scene
Hisuian Growlithe 181/167 and Perrin 220/167 are the most literal pair in the set. Pokémon's official art feature explains the visual link: Growlithe braces against Perrin's legs, while the reflection in Perrin's camera captures Growlithe. They are separated by the checklist but not by the picture.
An official connected-art pair that rewards placing two distant checklist numbers side by side.
Both cards are illustrated by GIDORA. Leave their numbers visible in your binder notes, then ignore the gap between them on the page: their shared camera-and-companion idea is stronger than adjacency. This is a compact route for someone who wants a complete visual statement without committing to a long premium run.
Route 3: a three-card illustration row
Tatsugiri 186/167, Chansey 187/167, and Eevee 188/167 form a small consecutive Illustration Rare row. The images do not depend on a shared character or a single continuous scene. Their unity comes from the rhythm of a three-card stretch that changes subject, palette, and scale without leaving the same part of the checklist.
Three consecutive Illustration Rares that make a lively one-row project from 186/167 to 188/167.
osare illustrates Tatsugiri, Toshinao Aoki illustrates Chansey, and Narumi Sato illustrates Eevee. That variety keeps the row from becoming a miniature character set. It is a good fit for a collector who likes the illustration rare lane but does not need every page to follow one mascot or one rarity headline. Check each printing directly from the Twilight Masquerade card list before adding it to a collection record.
Route 4: the four-card Supporter SIR run
Carmine 217/167, Kieran 218/167, Lana's Aid 219/167, and Perrin 220/167 make a four-card Special Illustration Rare Supporter run. Unlike a character-type collection, this one has its own contained logic: four adjacent premium Trainer cards that keep the Kitakami cast in view.
Four consecutive Special Illustration Rare Supporters, arranged from Carmine at 217/167 to Perrin at 220/167.
En Morikura illustrates Carmine, Teeziro illustrates Kieran, Toshinao Aoki illustrates Lana's Aid, and GIDORA illustrates Perrin. Each card has its own person and setting, but the sequence gives them a shared editorial frame. This is the route to choose when people and place matter more to you than building around a single Pokémon ex.
- Start with the page rule: consecutive SIRs, a connected pair, a three-card illustration row, or the Supporter run.
- Write the full collector numbers:
214/167identifies this Greninja ex, not every Greninja card. - Keep the numbered runs in order: the Ogerpon sequence and Supporter route gain their shape from adjacency.
- Let the pair stay small: Growlithe and Perrin are complete as two cards because the official art connection does the work.
- Track the actual printings: use BinderDex to separate a wish list from cards already in your portfolio or watchlist.
