## The most valuable Celebrations card

## Star Pokémon driving Celebrations' prices

## Most valuable isn't always rarest

Value and print rarity can diverge: the rarest card by rarity tier in Celebrations is Professor's Research (Professor Oak) (#24), a Rare Ultra, a different card from the priciest one. See the rarest-card breakdown for that angle.

## Buying smart in Celebrations

Mew anchors the high end, but Celebrations has 0 Illustration and Special Illustration Rares and 0 secret rares in total, so there's a full value ladder beneath it. If Mew is out of budget, the runners-up above give you the same set at a fraction of the cost — and prices shift, so check a current sold-listings page before you buy or sell.
