Summary
Ultra Rare rarity in thePokemon TCGcan be a bit of a head-scratcher.
In modern sets, its easy to spotjust look for those shiny double silver stars under the card.
But older sets didnt always follow that sparkly rule, yet still managed to sneak Ultra Rares in there.
Generally, Ultra Rare cards include special mechanics like Pokemon ex or Pokemon V.
Art?
Most of the cards on this list are Pokemon Star, which also qualify as Ultra Rare.
All these prices are fromTCGplayer.coms Market Value and are subject to change at any time.
Still, this card has been one of the top-tier ultra rares in terms of value for ages.
Shiny, subtle, and surprisingly savage!
Still, this Charizard ex makes the list for good reason.
It channelsserious Base Set nostalgia, especially with its attacks.
Yep, straight from the games.
Not the most efficient Charizard, but definitely one of the most valuable.
Elite Trainer Boxes are the go-to for many Pokemon TCG fans, and these are the cheapest ones around.
Latias Star is actually more valuable than Latios Star.
Guess being the stylish twin pays off.
Think of Delta Species as the old-school version of Tera Pokemonjust without the fancy disco-ball crystal hats.
Recycling, but make it battle-ready.
Dark Swirl hits for 150 damage, but it guzzles Energy like a dragon at an all-you-can-burn buffet.
As a Delta Species card, it ditches its usual Psychic typing and goes full Water-typebecause why not?
Trainer’s Pokemon have double the appeal and double the price of regular Pokemon cards.
Stronger than Mew, and yep, also more expensive.
Its so sweet it could be a Valentines Day giftyes, even for non-trainers.
Beyond the romantic symbolism, though, this card packs real power in battle.
Just be careful: if your Tag Team gets knocked out, your opponent grabs three prize cards.
Kind of like lovebeautiful, but high risk.
And while love may be priceless, this card definitely isnt.
Its stunning, symbolic, and seriously expensive.
A red, raging, Shiny Gyarados, of course.
Massive damage potential… and a massive chance to deck yourself out.
High risk, high rewardjust like trying to tame this angry sea serpent.
Not the strongest attack out there, but come onwho wouldnt want this flashy Pikachu in their deck?
Just one problem: your wallet might not agree.
Its shiny form is so irresistibly cute, it basically demands a hug.
This little fire chick looks like it accidentally wandered into the wrong generationtourist vibes included.
This Torchic looks harmless… until you check the price tag.
These common cards cost more than their rarity would imply.
