The 10 Most Valuable Pokémon Cards from Japan's Mega Brave and Mega Symphonia

In competitive play, this version of Lillie’s Determination functions as an early game draw engine. By shuffling your hand into your deck and drawing 6 cards, or 8 if you still have all 6 Prize cards, it can refresh slow starts and keep your options open. It fits best in slower control and setup decks that benefit from a full hand, giving it a niche but dependable role.

From a collector’s perspective, this Super Rare captures Lillie’s focused expression in an art style faithful to her Sun and Moon era origins. At under $50, it is one of the most accessible Lillie cards for fans, making it a strong value entry point into her broader and often pricey card history.

9. Mega Kangaskhan ex - 089/063 ($57)

Mega Kangaskhan ex offers both utility and unpredictability. Its Run Errand ability lets you draw two cards when it is in the Active Spot, and Rapid Fire Combo can snowball into serious damage with a streak of heads flips. While it may not dominate the meta, it gives casual decks a fun high ceiling in battle.

Collectors value this Special Art Rare for its dynamic double character composition, showing both Kangaskhan and its baby in an active, playful scene. At $57, it offers unique artwork of a long-standing fan favorite without reaching the price heights of more competitively dominant cards.

8. Mega Venusaur ex - 087/063 ($81.96)

Mega Venusaur ex is a durable Grass type wall with strong energy control thanks to its Solar Transfer ability, which lets you move Grass Energy freely between your Pokémon. Its Jungle Dump attack deals 240 damage while healing itself, making it a reliable choice for tank-oriented strategies.

This Special Art Rare features a towering Venusaur in a vibrant jungle scene, perfectly fitting its type identity. For just over $80, it offers high HP, competitive potential, and lush, display-worthy artwork, giving it excellent all-around value.

7. Mega Latias ex - 088/063 ($83.95)

With Strafe, Mega Latias ex can deal early damage and switch to safety, while Illusory Impulse delivers a massive 300 damage for a potential knockout, albeit at the cost of all its Energy. This gives it flexibility as both a tactical hit-and-run attacker and a late-game closer.

Collectors are drawn to its flowing, elegant Special Art Rare illustration, which captures the aerodynamic grace of this Legendary Mega Evolution. At under $85, it is an affordable way to own a premium Latias card with strong visual appeal.

6. Acerola's Mischief - 090/063 ($100.98)

Acerola's Mischief is a defensive powerhouse in late game situations, preventing all damage and effects from opponent’s Pokémon ex to one of your chosen Pokémon. In control or stall decks, it can shut down an opponent’s final push toward victory.

The card’s Special Art Rare features Acerola in a lively, mischievous pose with vibrant colors and a playful backdrop. Its current price reflects both the enduring popularity of Acerola among collectors and the scarcity of full art Trainer cards featuring her.

5. Mega Lucario ex - 088/063 ($112)

4. Mega Gardevoir ex - 087/063 ($179)

Mega Gardevoir ex excels in Psychic acceleration through Overflowing Wishes, attaching a Basic Psychic Energy to each of your Benched Pokémon. This setup enables a devastating Mega Symphonia attack that scales damage with the total Psychic Energy in play.

Its Special Art Rare illustration uses soft colors and glowing effects to give Gardevoir an ethereal presence. At $179, it delivers on both competitive utility and collector desirability, particularly for those building Psychic type display collections.

3. Lillie's Determination - 091/063 ($300)

This Special Art Rare shares the same in-game effect as the Super Rare version but elevates it with a far more detailed and premium visual presentation. In the right decks, it remains a dependable draw Supporter with the potential for a big early game hand advantage.

Collectors prize this version for its painterly rendering of Lillie, which captures her as both determined and elegant. At $300, it stands as one of the most desirable modern Lillie cards available and a core piece for character-focused collections.

2. Mega Lucario ex - 092/063 ($444.44)

This Mega Ultra Rare version of Lucario retains the same high damage attacks and energy acceleration as its SAR counterpart, making it equally formidable in competitive play. Aura Jab and Mega Brave combine for aggressive, consistent pressure across multiple turns.

Visually, the Mega Ultra Rare finish adds depth and shine to Lucario’s dynamic pose, giving it an even more premium appearance. At $444.44, it is a top-tier Lucario card for both serious collectors and competitive players who want the most exclusive version.
