The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokemon TCG is like time, waiting for no one with each release following the previous ꦬset at a constant rate. However, while you can expect new Pokemon products as confidently as you'd expect to see the sun rise and set each day, certain sets stand out from the rest, like Destined Rivals does.

This Team Rocket-themed set is the first of its kind in the modern era, as we haven't seen such a monumental Team Rocket release since ex Team Rocket Ret⛄urns released with its valuablꦡe roster of cards. While time will h🌼ave a major effect on all of these cards, you can expect to see the top two chase cards from Destined Rivals maintain their placement.

Cards are ordered according to their market p🌞rice. Any 𝓡cards without a market price are not included.

All vintage cards feature the first editio🍰n pricing, where applicablꦛe.

8 Misty&rsq👍uo;s Psyduck (Illustration Raജre) – $58.52

While there was a little bit of uncertainty before the set's rel𒉰ease about where Mistyꩵ's Psyduck might fall on the list of most expensive Destined Rivals cards, it's clear she is making a strong claim for the top spots.

While this card's career is still very young, there's a great chance that we will see it among 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the most valuable Misty cards for years to come.

While this is one of two Misty cards in the set, there's little doubt that it will remain ahead of Misty's Lapras and is deserving of a spot among the best.ജ It may be a swim against the current of Special Illustration Rares, but this dynamic duo is built for the challenge.

7 Ethan’s Adventure (Special Illustration Rare) – 🍬$63.15

Ethan's Adventure is the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:sole trainer-specific card to earn its place among the most valuable cards in Destined Rivals, with a cast of Pokemon joining the titular tra✅iner.

Cards that featu🃏re multiple subjects frequently earn their spots among the most valuable in their given se꧅ts, as the wider appeal of multiple Pokemon expands the potential buyer pool for a given card.

Although Ethan's popularity is undoubtedly growing, it's still a surprise to see this trainer making such a strong mark on this set, with the potential for this card to grow exponentially over t🐭ime.

6 Team Rocket’sꦦ Crobat ex (Special Illustration Rare) – $75.82

Crobat might be the most underrated Pokemon to appear in an💫y of the Special Illustration Rares in Destined Rivals, and this artwork elevates the Pokemon's cool fac🏅tor even higher. Combine Crobat's rare presence with the other Golbat and Crobat in the background, and you have one of the most stunning cards in the set.

While Crobat's s💜trong initial price tag is likely to continue dropping, this c♑ard is an excellent reminder of the potential that certain underrated Pokemon have to be included in Pokemon TCG artwork.

5 Team Rocket’s Nidoking ex (Special Illustration Rare) &😼ndash; $90.04

Nidoking follows in Crobat's footsteps as yet another unusual Pokemon to find among the most expensive cards in a Pokemon TCG set. Despite the surprisingly high early valuation of this card, its inclusion is thematically fitting, given Nidoking's distinction as Giovanni's earliest signature Pok꧋emon in Pokemon Red and Blue.

Don't expect this card to crack the triple digits anytime soon, as it's much more likely to settle closer t⛄o the $50 mark than the $100 mark. However, time is the only thing that can help determine the eventual range this card will settle in.

4 ♔ Team Rocket’s Moltres ex (Special Illustration Rare) – $148.91

Moltres might not be the most typical Pokemon associated with Team Rocket, but this card is a superb rendition of a classic artwork: 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Rocket's Moltres from Gym Heroes. 🅠While the vintage version is much simpler, this complex scene f🍸eatures gorgeous attention to detail.

Every flame on Moltres' wings is carefully illustrated to an extreme degree, offering a strikingꦬ view of this legendary Pokemon in the foreground with its Rocket trainer in the background.

3 Ethan’s Ho-Oh ex (Special Ill𝐆ustration Rare) – $162.48

Ethan's Ho-Oh i𒁏s the second Ethan appearance among the most valuable Destined Rivals cards, and it's easily one of the most visually stunning cards in the set. Unlike the Ethan's Adventure Special Illustration Rare, this card puts the focus firmly on Ho-Oh rather than its trainer.

🌳While this card's price is still in flux, it's going to be in a constant battle for position, as it's flanked by two worthy contenders in Rocket's Moltres, and the next ♍entry.

2 Cynthia’s Garchomp💫 ex (Special🌺 Illustration Rare) – $191.31

If you've been collecting 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:some of the best Cynthia cards in preparation for the Trainer-themed renaissance on the horizon, this card is one of the most important additions to your list. While Garchomp is featured as the primary subject in the foreground, Cynthia also gets plenty🎶 of attention in the background.

Cynthia appears twice: once in t𝐆he distance with a zoomed-in view, and another time within the Garchomp scene, as she appears much smaller in the distance directly behind Garchomp. This double appearance is a unique new design choice that is certain to make this one of the best Destined Rivals cards for years to come.

1 Tea🥃m Rocket’s Mewtwo ex (Special Illustration Rare) – $340.59

While 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:some of Giovanni's best cards feature this Team Rocket boss paired with some of his most iconic Pokemon partners, none have offered a combination with Mewtwo, until now. The best chase card in Destined Rivals stands well above the rest, as Mewtwo commands much𒁏 more than Cynthia's Garchomp.

However, the gap is likely to continue shrinking as th⛎ese cards settle into their post-release value ranges. Whatever the future holds, expect Team Rocket's Mewtwo to remain the top chase card in Destined Rivals for a long time.
