lugia pokemon card v #186 EXTENDED ART 30 Retreat Cost Lugia V 138/195 Silver Tempest

This stops this acting like a bad Rishadan Port but also means it can be a viable energy source

If a standard Pokmon booster pack costs $4.50 , then the expected cost to pull any Special Illustration Rare is: Special Illustration Rare Cost = $4.50 per pack 80 packs = $360 Next, I pulled the current market price for all the Special Illustration Rares from Phantasmal Flames (see below) You can see in the table 4 of the 5 SIRs can be purchased raw for about $25

You need to achieve such a result that the cards will fit perfectly between each other one by one without any obstacles

Having to pay the discard as part of the cost is a risk but it is one worth taking for these powerful little enablers
