The fifth Japanese set for Pokémon’s Mega Evolution series is here. Abyss Eye features more new Mega Pokémon, and lots of cards which fans are very keen to add to their collection. Let’s check out which are the most sought after, as we take a look at the most valuable Abyss Eye cards!
10. Fomantis – Art Rare, 082/081
Kicking off our list of the most valuable Pokémon Abyss Eye cards is this Fomantis. An Art Rare variant, its full illustration is a beautiful depiction of the Fomantis in its natural environment. It’s this type of art, which doesn’t focus on battling or action poses, which has really elevated Pokémon in the last 10 years or so.We’ll be seeing a few more examples of this type of card as we make our way down the list!
9. Primarina – Art Rare, 085/081
This gorgeous Primarina card is much the same thing as the Fomantis, in terms of depicting a Pokémon in its environment, away from the action and danger of battle.
8. Silvally – Art Rare, 093/081
This Silvally illustration has lens flare added by the artist to give it an extra layer of style. Another Art Rare card which depicts a Pokémon just existing in the wild, it’s a detailed, beautifully rendered work of art.
7. Thievul – Art Rare, 089/081
The sneaky Thievul features here, jumping around rooftops at night. The nocturnal Pokémon is notorious for stealing food, and it looks like this one is on the hunt!
6. Rust Syndicate Grunt – Super Rare, 110/081
The Rust Syndicate is a sinister organization, first making their appearance in video game Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Here we have two of their lower level members, one looking particularly cool and the other seeming to be somewhat less satisfied with their position!
5. Wailord ex – Super Rare, 095/081
Tying for first place as the Pokémon with the highest HP ever (so far at least) is this Wailord ex card. On that alone, it’s clear why this would be a highly sought after card, but just look at the enormous, adorable Pokémon’s face! That counts for something too, right?
4. Bastiodon – Art Rare, 091/081
We’re heading back into the wild with Bastiodon. I have to admit, I’m a big fan of these candid, wildlife documentary-style shots of Pokémon too, so I can see why they become so valuable to collectors!
3. Gwynn – Super Rare, 111/081
We always see at least one Pokémon Trainer card on our lists of the most valuable Pokémon cards, and here’s our first for Abyss Eye! Gwynn is another character who debuted in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, and she is in charge of the Fist of Justice alongside her brother, Ivor.
2. Misty’s Spirit – Super Rare, 108/081
Here’s another Pokémon Trainer, and this time it’s someone who’s much more familiar to longer term Pokémon fans. As one of the main characters in the original Pokémon animated show, Misty remains one of the most popular human characters in Pokémon overall!
1. Mega Zeraora ex – Special Art Rare, 112/081
Finally, we have Mega Zeraora ex, undoubtedly the star of the Abyss Eye set. This Special Art Rare is the second of three different variants featuring Mega Zeraora ex. It’s not just the most valuable card in the set featuring this specific Pokémon, but the most valuable card in the set overall!
