Espeon
If you’ve ever longed to own the rarest Pokemon card in the world, you’re in luck. The Espeon, created by the legendary artist Tsunekazu Ishihara, has finally come to market. While many people think of it as an ordinary card, it’s far from it. In fact, this card is a piece of history. Only three copies have ever been sold publicly. The auction held in October 2020 will be the first time that the card will be sold in mint condition.
The Espeon is a Psychic type Pokemon. It was first introduced in Neo Discovery, one of four Neo sets that marked the Second Generation. This card is one of the 17 holos in the Neo Discovery set. A PSA 10 card in this condition is now valued at over $22,000!
The Espeon card is a gold star card, with an holographic element. It also has a gold star design and a gold star designation. The card was given to the competitors of the 2010 World Championships in Hawaii. It sold for $21,000 in November 2019.
The Espeon is one of two highly sought-after cards in the promotional set, the other being the Shining Charizard, which was released in Neo Destiny. It has a unique foil design and the “Gold Star” symbol next to the character’s name denotes increased rarity.
Due to its rarity, the Espeon is one of the rarest Pokemon cards available. Only 1000 copies of this card were produced, and some have already sold for over $50,000. This makes it one of the most valuable Pokemon cards available today.
Umbreon
The Umbreon is a dark-type Pokemon that was introduced in Generation II. It has the ability to be loyal and benevolent. Its card art usually depicts a nighttime scene. Since its release in the Pokemon TCG, Umbreon has appeared on 23 different cards.
The top version is the Skyridge version, which is a normal holo card. The Skyridge set was the last one produced by Wizards of the Coast and consists of two Japanese e-Card sets, Split Earth and Mysterious Mountains.
This card was created to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. It was released in a limited quantity, only available to Pokemon Players’ Club members.
It was sold for over $20,000 in 2020 and was later reprinted in 2021 as part of the 25th Anniversary Celebrations set. It is still the third most expensive card released in the expansion.
While the Aquapolis set contained the first Umbreon, it was under-printed, which increased the value of the card. In 2005, Umbreon ex entered the PTCG market in EX Unseen Forces, which increased its value even further.
In addition, the Umbreon character art was featured on POP Series packs that were given away as rewards for Pokemon Organized Play. And a single Umbreon Gold Star has recently been auctioned for $10,200.
Other Pokemon cards that can fetch ridiculous prices at auction include Pikachu Illustrator. A ‘PSA 10’ version of this card sold at Heritage Auctions for $420,000 in March 2022. The price of the card was 131 times the previous asking price.
University Magikarp
In Japan, a rare Magikarp card has become one of the most valuable Pokemon cards in the world. The first time it was given out was during the Tamamushi University Hyper Test, an educational magazine promotional event. It went on to fetch more than 15 million yen, or around $125,000 USD. This is a massive price tag for a single card!
The craze for Pokemon cards is showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Last month, a card called the Illustrator Pikachu broke the record for the most expensive Pokemon card in the world, selling for over $375,000! So far, University Magikarp is not the most expensive Pokemon card, but some collectors believe the first $1 million card is just around the corner.
The 1998 Pikachu Illustrator card is another high-end Pokemon card. It is incredibly rare to find a perfect example, and only three were ever sold, according to Pokemon auction firm PWCC. However, Logan Paul did manage to buy a copy in 2021 and wore it around his neck during a wrestling event in March 2022.
The card has several unique features. First, it features the former president of the Pokemon company, Tsunekazu Ishihara. Secondly, it is a collector’s item, as it isn’t tournament legal. The card is also incredibly rare, and can be worth up to $2 million.
The history of the University Magikarp is fascinating. In Japan, it was released on a two-day event called the Tamamushi University Hyper Test, where children had to pass a series of tests. The only other card known to have such a unique history is the Mint 9 copy of the 2006 Pokemon World Championships No.2 Trainer. The other copy is blank.
