For years, collectors have mastered the Pokmon TCG landscape
Holofoil Gengar ex Fire Red & Leaf Green Market Price: $376.86 The only mid-era card on this list boasts striking Mitsuhiro Arita artwork (showing the legendary Pokmon TCG illustrator experimenting with a more computer-generated style) as well as the beautiful foiling method of super rares from this era in which the foil pattern extends all the way to the silver borders of the card itself making for a gorgeous piece of 20-year-old cardboard

Would love to pay against it
