However, setting this Gengar card apart from many other cards in this Pok\u00e9mon TCG set is its Master Ball Mirror background\u2014something that makes this version considerably rarer and thus pricier than its regular version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The card&#8217;s crayon-like illustration is the perfect mechanism to convey Gengar&#8217;s nature\u2014mischievous but not necessarily outright sinister. The simpler art style also calls to mind the simpler graphics found in the original Pok\u00e9mon Red and Blue video games, particularly those found in the Pok\u00e9dex\u2014adding another layer of nostalgia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the card&#8217;s Master Ball Mirror print in and of itself adds exclusivity, this factor has an additional aesthetic factor pertaining to Gengar. The Master Ball&#8217;s iconic purple hue matches both that of Gengar itself and the card&#8217;s background. Really, the only thing missing here is having the background Master Balls in full color\u2014perhaps that would&#8217;ve jacked up this card&#8217;s value even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This card&#8217;s English version is 094\/165 of the 151 [MEW] set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One copy of a Gengar Master Ball Mirror (Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] 094\/165) card sells for \u00a539,800 (~US$268).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other TCG-related news, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2024\/03\/14\/one-piece-card-game-kaidous-son-arrives-in-leader-parallel-art-form-yamato-wings-of-the-captain-op06-op06-022\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Yamato card from Wings of the Captain [OP-06]<\/a>.
