Gotcha!

You weren’t expecting a piece of bulk to be here, were you? The reason is—and admittedly this is not a picture of the specific version of the card—it’s the version of this Umbreon card that has the Master Ball holo pattern printed on it.

These have been a feature in Japan for a few years now, but Prismatic Evolutions is the first time we’ve had it over here. There’s a chance of getting every Pokémon card as a Poké Ball holo or Master Ball holo. The former are reasonably common, the latter much more rare. Rare enough that during this current lunacy, the rest of the Eeveelution versions are fetching $60 to $100.

But Umbreon’s gonna Umbreon, and astonishingly, this incredibly ordinary card, with a barely perceptible holo patterning, is currently changing hands for over $368. Anyone paying that much doesn’t deserve to have money.
