¥19,000 JPY~¥15,900 JPY~¥22,000 JPY

Featured as the first-ever “FUR” (Futuristic Rare) in Pokémon TCG history, this card is characterized by its vivid artwork created by graphic artist YOSHIROTTEN. It is highly sought after by players due to its powerful Ability, “Memory Spiral,” which allows it to use all the attacks of your Benched Pokémon. As a special rarity of a popular Pokémon, it is currently trading at a market price of around 20,000 JPY.

The “Lugia,” originally released in 2002 as part of the “Wind from the Sea” (Aquapolis) expansion pack—the third set of the “e-Card” series—has been reprinted with special specifications. Referred to as a “Crystal Type,” this card is highly popular among collectors due to its beautiful holographic foil. Combined with its vintage release year, near-mint condition copies are practically nonexistent on the market, pushing its estimated market value well beyond 1 million JPY due to its sheer rarity. In celebration of the 30th Anniversary, many popular classic cards have been reprinted, and this specific card has been crafted as a special piece featuring a brilliant, glittering gold border. Coupled with the extreme difficulty of obtaining the original vintage card, this reprint is seeing incredibly high demand from many users.

“30th CELEBRATION” Expected Booster Box Pull Rates

While the exact pull rates for the new FUR rarity remain a mystery, we can look at historical data for a baseline.

Expect 30th CELEBRATION to follow a similar high-stakes structure, making every box an exhilarating open.
