Yanmega EX 003/182

This is Yanmega ex, card number 003/182 from the English Destined Rivals set. It is a Double Rare, the rarity tier reserved for ex cards with full colour artwork and the gold ex stamp. Double Rares sit above the standard rares in a set and are some of the cards collectors most want to pull.

Destined Rivals is a Scarlet and Violet era release, and its ex cards form a central part of the set's chase. Yanmega is the evolved form of Yanma, a Pokemon first seen in later generations and recognisable for its large dragonfly like wings, which lend themselves to a striking ex frame.

This card is sought after because ex cards offer higher hit points and a more detailed border than ordinary cards, making them appealing as display pieces and as part of a complete set. Set builders prize a clean, well centred copy.
