Why the High Value? An Analysis of the Mega Gengar ex SAR Surge
The high valuation of this card can be attributed to two main factors:
1. A Fan-Favorite Ghost-Type Pokémon
Gengar has been one of the most popular Pokémon since its debut in the original Pokémon Red and Green games. Its enduring appeal lies in its combination of unsettling spookiness and undeniable charm. This unique blend has drawn a massive fan base.
A prime example of Gengar’s market power is the past Gengar VMAX Alternate Art (SA) card. Though it was trading around ¥30,000 in 2023, its market value has now skyrocketed to approximately ¥150,000. Similarly, the Mega Gengar ex SAR saw initial trades at a high price point—around ¥100,000—right out of the gate. All eyes are on how much higher this card will climb.
2. A Highly Sought-After SAR Illustrated by a Popular Artist
While the standard illustration of Mega Gengar ex was initially included in the Starter Set MEGA “Mega Gengar ex” released in September 2025, this new release features it as an SAR (Special Art Rare)—a full-art card distinguished by its striking and dynamic composition.
The artwork is by the popular illustrator danciao, known for other impactful cards such as Zekrom ex SAR. This particular illustration depicts Gengar with a sinister and imposing aura, strongly evoking its Ability, Shadow Mist. The card’s aesthetic quality has generated immense demand from both players and dedicated collectors.
