The market isn't one single entity
A Zubat base stat total is 245, and attack and speed are the highest
7 Pikachu ex - $342.17 Surging Sparks - 238 Its no surprise that some Pikachu cards are seriously valuableafter all, its the mascot of Pokemon and basically a global icon
Lifegain decks are completely unable to do what they want until this card is off the battlefield, and token decks have to be very careful about how many token creatures theyre generating, or else theyll lose to Rampaging Ferocidons triggered ability
I am, of course, referring to the Special Illustration Rare variant of Latias ex, one of the mascots for Surging Sparks
She boasts a decent stat line, especially when challenging, but if a character has no non-challenging type abilities and still loses to Madam Mim - Fox on curve, you need to look in other directions for playables
