What You Can Expect to Pull
Special Illustration Rares (SIRs) — The Top Tier
There are multiple SIRs in Perfect Order, with the pull rate sitting at approximately one per 72 packs. That means in a standard booster box (36 packs), you're looking at roughly a 50% chance of pulling a SIR per box — though variance is high.
The SIRs confirmed in the set include:
- Meowth EX SIR — The fan favourite. A Gen 1 Pokemon with stunning illustration artwork. Early pulls are showing excellent centering, making this a strong grading candidate. Community estimates place this at SGD $250 raw
- Mega Zygarde EX SIR — The set's apex predator. Current sales running at SGD $230–260 raw
- Starmie SIR — A surprisingly compelling Starmie card with dynamic nebula-beam artwork. SGD $155–165 raw
- Rosa SIR — Popular trainer card. SGD $195–205 raw
- Gold Mega Zygarde (Hyper Rare) — The set's lone gold card. SGD $225–235 raw
Out of 54 packs opened, the community pull rate held roughly true: 1 SIR per 54 packs in this particular opening, with the Meowth EX SIR being the pull.
> "Centering looks fabulous. That is a potential 10 as long as there's no edge issues or corner issues on the front foil." — Community opener, pre-release week
This captures exactly what Singapore graders should be looking for: surface quality and centering on early pulls.
Illustration Rares (IRs) — The Volume Hits
For collectors who enjoy building sets or want consistent quality pulls at every rarity level, Perfect Order's IR lineup is genuinely strong. In a 54-pack opening, the following IRs were confirmed:
| Card | Notes |
|------|-------|
| Clefairy IR | Standout of the set — gorgeous depth and coloring. Likely one of the best IRs |
| Talonflame IR | Elegant design, consistent quality |
| Rowlet IR | Fan favourite — adorable green tones, very popular with collectors |
| Drapeon IR | Bold design — not quite at Groudon/Blastoise level but still worth holding |
| Aurorus IR | Solid pull, solid value |
| Clefairy IR (duplicate) | Doubled up on Clefairy — speaks to its prevalence |
| Pro Pass IR | Unique trainer-adjacent IR — the "uncle with a mustache" card is growing on collectors |
IRs in the Mega Evolution era have consistently surprised on value. The Clefairy IR in particular is drawing comparisons to previous strong IR performers — expect this to be one of the more sought-after non-SIR cards in the set.
Full Art Cards
The set features Lumios City and other full art items/trainers. While trainer full arts rarely hold significant value, the Salazzle Dazzle full art with its striking pink palette is one worth noting aesthetically.
Reverse Holos Worth Noting
- Meowth EX Reverse Holo — A surprisingly popular reverse given the Meowth SIR's demand. Worth sleeving immediately
- Poke Pad Reverse Holo — With Poke Pad being a highly playable competitive card, the reverse holo version carries a premium for competitive players

Singapore-Specific Pull Rate Value Analysis
Here's how the hit rates translate to SGD expected value when opening Perfect Order at current Singapore market prices:
Opening 1 Booster Box (36 packs) at SGD $310:
| Expected Pulls | Estimated SGD Value |
|---------------|---------------------|
| 7–8 IRs | SGD $8–25 each = SGD $60–200 |
| 1–2 Full Art cards | SGD $5–15 each = SGD $10–30 |
| 0–1 SIR (50% chance) | SGD $150–260 if hit |
| Various reverse holos | SGD $2–15 |
At current pricing, opening sealed product at SGD $310/box carries meaningful risk. If you hit an SIR, you're likely close to box value. Without an SIR, you're looking at pull value well under box cost.
This is why the community consensus is forming around buying singles for chase cards rather than gambling on sealed product — at least at current prices.

How Perfect Order Compares to Other Mega Evolution Sets
| Set | Box Price (SGD) | SIR Rate | Top Card Value (SGD) |
|-----|----------------|----------|----------------------|
| Ascended Heroes | $450–480 | ~1/72 | $1,500+ (Gengar) |
| Fantasmal Flames | $420–450 | ~1/72 | $500–600 |
| Journey Together | $340–360 | ~1/72 | $200–300 |
| Perfect Order | $285–310 | ~1/72 | ~$260 |
Perfect Order is clearly the most affordable set in the Mega Evolution era at launch. The flip side: the top cards aren't generating the same excitement as Ascended Heroes' Gengar or Fantasmal's Mega Charizard.
For Singapore collectors who've been priced out of the premium sets, Perfect Order offers an accessible entry point into the Mega Evolution era.
---
The Poke Pad Factor
One notable aspect of Perfect Order's pull profile is how frequently the Poke Pad item card appears. This is widely considered a highly competitive playable card, and Poke Pad prices have been tracked at SGD $42–55 on Carousell for the regular version.
With Poke Pad appearing frequently across pulls and potentially declining in value as more sealed product is opened at release, competitive players may want to buy their copies now rather than hoping to pull them.

What to Sleeve Immediately
If you're opening Perfect Order packs in Singapore, here's your priority sleeving list:
1. Any SIR — Meowth EX, Mega Zygarde EX, Starmie, Rosa, Gold Zygarde
2. Clefairy IR — Highest value IR in the set
3. Rowlet IR — Fan favourite, strong demand
4. Meowth EX Reverse Holo — Surprisingly strong secondary demand
5. Talonflame IR and Drapeon IR — Worth preserving for condition-sensitive collectors
6. Gengar Holos — The community rule: sleeve every Gengar pull regardless of set or condition. As 151 Gengar has demonstrated, you never know which Gengar ends up valuable

Actionable Recommendations for Singapore Collectors
If You're Opening for Fun:
1. Booster bundles (6 packs) at SGD $55–65 each offer the best casual opening experience
2. Set a budget before you start — the absence of a mega-chase card like Ascended Heroes' Gengar makes it easy to keep spending without that satisfying dopamine moment
3. Open with friends — the set's diverse IR pool means group openings stay exciting throughout
If You're Opening to Collect:
1. Target 2–3 boxes to reasonably expect at least one SIR pull
2. Prioritise the Meowth EX SIR as your collection centrepiece — it's the most visually striking card in the set
3. Build your IR collection through a mix of opening and buying singles — Carousell is well-stocked
If You're Opening to Flip:
1. Be cautious — the set's lower ceiling (top card ~SGD $260 vs SGD $1,500+ in Ascended Heroes) limits upside
2. Buy at or below SGD $280/box to give yourself meaningful upside
3. Grade your best SIR pulls — PSA 10 premiums on Mega Evolution era cards remain strong

Conclusion: Is the Pull Rate Worth It?
Perfect Order's pull rates tell an honest story: this is a generous set for hits overall, but not a lottery-ticket set. You're likely to pull 13–16 interesting cards per box, but the top SIRs aren't earth-shattering enough to justify high risk.
For Singapore collectors, the message is clear: buy at reasonable prices, enjoy the pull experience, and don't overinvest expecting massive returns. The set serves a real need in the current market — an affordable, fun-to-open set that doesn't require spending $450+ per box.
Next week: we dig into the full investment case for Perfect Order — should Singapore collectors be buying sealed product to hold, or is the smarter play elsewhere?
