ThePokemon TCGfeatures a near-endless number of Pokemon and sets for you to enjoy, includingvaluable vintage setslike EX Deoxys. While the Pokemon of the same name appears in the set, several other Pokemon fight for spots among the top cards in EX Deoxys.
Star cards feature among the heavy hitters inthis valuable EX-era set,as Rayquaza boasts one of the most expensive raw cards in Pokemon TCG history to lead the way. While you might find some bargains for cards, particularly those in lower-tier conditions, most of the best cards from EX Deoxys are rare and expensive; be ready to spend plenty of time and effort collecting them all.
Cards are ordered according to theirTCGPlayerMarket Price,which you might pay on average for a copy of the cards below.
Given the age and rarity of these cards, only those with anestablished market price on TCGplayerare included.
However,sale prices differ depending on the card’s condition,so this market price is just a rough idea of the card’s value.
10Hariyama Ex (Ultra Rare) – $44.96
Fighting To Stay
Hariyama is a surprise appearance, but its depiction in its signature pose and some additional stars in the background give this card a solid start in EX Deoxys. If you like this Pokemon, then you’ll be ecstatic to knowyou won’t have to pay anywhere near $40 to own this card.
Hariyama commands about $30 in LP condition, while some damaged copies sell for less than ten dollars, opening the door to a massive bargain for this stunning card.
9Crobat Ex (Ultra Rare) – $47.51
A Slow Burn To Start
Crobat claims a small lead over Hariyama among the most valuable cards in EX Deoxys, climbing up toward the $50 mark as this Flying and Poison-type Pokemon is featured on a red background.
Much like Hariyama, the best copies of this Crobat card will command around the market price,with the most expensive copy fetching about $52.However, you may pay as little as $11 for a damaged copy if you’re able to find one, with other damaged copies selling for a dollar or two more.
8Sharpedo Ex (Ultra Rare) – $53.20
Swimming Against The Current
Sharpedo takes a bite out of the pie, as the red and black accents in this artwork contribute to the fear that Sharpedo’s massive maw can instill in anyone who sees it.
This Sharpedo leapfrogs Crobat by about six dollars,claiming a comfortable advantage on the back of an NM sale that could indicate a price rise. An NM copy commanded $52.65 after LP copies maxed out at $32.70 before that. Another NM sale barely missed $55, giving some wiggle room for this card’s value to remain steady.
7Jirachi (Holo Rare) – $55.92
A Standout Star
Jirachi undoubtedly stands out from the other cards in EX Deoxys based on its bright design contrasting the dull background, allowing Jirachi’s form to pop. The swirling celestial background provides the perfect backdrop for this star Pokemon.
This Jirachi also makes its home amongthe most valuable Jirachi cards of all time,boasting a solid showing among its direct peers there, plus still touts impressive value compared to other EX Deoxys cards.
The Reverse Holo and Holo Rare each sell for roughly the same amounts, though the Holo version boasts more sales data and includes more recent near-mint(NM)sales that cap out at $70. However, there are solid deals available if you’re able to settle for lightly played (LP) copies, withsome sales dropping as low as $35.
6Deoxys Ex: Defense Forme (Ultra Rare) – $66.99
Yo Dog, Heard You Like Ex Deoxys
If the set name “Ex Deoxys” didn’t confuse you enough, why not throw a Deoxys ex (in Defense Forme, by the way) at you to make things even more muddled.
This card also earns a place among the most valuable Deoxys cards ever, so it’s no slouch.
Recent sales see this card falling short of its market price, with some instances of NM copies only yielding $63.99; however, there are other sales at $69.99 and above to offset this lower sale. That being said, keep an eye on the next few sale prices to determine which value is more accurate.
5Salamence Ex (Ultra Rare) – $110.00
Shrouded In Shadows
Salamence slips out of its spot in the shadows to flaunt one of the most unsettling, intimidating Pokemon designs in the TCG, asthis ferocious dragon bares its sharp fangs while emerging from the shadows.
The ex distinction is a hallmark of this eraand can be seen on several other cards in EX Deoxys and other sets.
Despite a market price that seems rock solid at $110, only one NM sale ever reached that price, with an LP selling for $72 before that. While damaged copies drop as low as $12, more LP and NM sales are needed to confirm the accuracy of the current price.
4Rocket’s Raikou Ex (Secret Rare) – $121.06
A Team Rocket Invasion
Raikou emerges from the clutches of Team Rocket, asthis valuable Rocket’s cardmaintains the shadowy theme that Salamence brought to the table. Raikou’s features are barely visible in the dark, though its face is illuminated while the back portion of Raikou remains obscured.
Unlike Salamence, Raikou boasts plenty of sales to support its strong valuation with an MP sale at $90, followed by an LP sale at $92 immediately following that.An NM copy sold for $128.99,slightly exceeding the market price, but solidifying its validity.
3Rayquaza Ex (Ultra Rare) – $184.92
The Runner-Up Edition
While this Rayquaza doesn’t bear the same unique features thatthe best cards from the X&Y erado, it still manages to find a place among the top three most valuable cards in EX Deoxys,falling in line behind two heavy hitters.
Rayquaza ex is the best ex card from this expansion, settingthe bar for all other ex cards to fall under as Rayquaza boasts the highest popularity by far.
This card is exceptionally hard to get on TCGplayer, especially if you’re bargain-hunting. However, whileNM sales might jump into the $140 range,you can still find damaged copies for closer to $40, offering you a much more affordable price at which to buy this card.
2Latias Star (Ultra Rare) – $274.95
A Star Shining In The Sky
Latias Star is one of the most visually stunning vintage Pokemon TCG cards, and easily earns one of the top spots in EX Deoxys,eclipsing Rayquaza ex by over $90to sit comfortably in second place. The sparkling background is the perfect accompaniment to Latias' new yellow accents, giving the Pokemon a glittering effect.
This card is even more difficult to find, particularly if you’re looking for one in good condition, as almost all Star cards are desirable, despite some being in damaged condition. For example,damagedcopies of the Latias Star still command over$275,setting the market price for this card.
1Rayquaza Star (Ultra Rare) – $1,740.00
The Pinnacle Of Star Pokemon
If you thought Latias offered jaw-dropping artwork on its Star card, then Rayquaza’s version will blow you away, as this shiny legendary Dragon is rarely depicted in the Pokemon TCG. This card’s rarity is difficult to overstate, as it’sone of the most sought-after cards ever.
Much like Latias, this card is difficult to find on TCGplayer, since most copies are immediately graded. However, one inMP condition sold for the market price of $1,740,setting the current standard until more cards in other conditions sell too.
