10. Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex

Much like Radiant Charizard, Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex shines brightest in the late game. Its attack capabilities make it a strong choice for any competitive deck.

9. Flareon ex

Energy acceleration? Check. Big damage? Double-check. Flareon ex is all about efficiency, pulling Energy out of your deck while hitting for 130 damage. Its "Carnelian" attack delivers a hefty 280 damage—perfect for softening up opponents before retreating to let your juiced-up hitters take over. It’s especially appealing for Eeveelution enthusiasts who love combining strategy with flair.

8. Ceruledge ex

With its regal Special Illustration Art and turbo-deck potential, Ceruledge ex is a fresh face in the competitive scene. This card shines as a counter to slower decks, making it a sleeper hit for the 2025 meta. Whether you’re here for its strategic value or its stunning aesthetics, Ceruledge ex brings the best of both worlds.

7. Tyranitar ex

This tanky Pokémon boasts an impressive 340 HP, making it a tough knockout for opponents. Its "Grind" attack deals 50 damage for every Energy attached, letting you scale up quickly with the right setup. The disruptive "Tyrannical Crush" not only deals 150 damage but also discards a random card from your opponent’s hand, giving you a strategic edge. Whether you’re looking for brute strength or control, Tyranitar ex delivers in spades.

6. Teal Mask Ogerpon ex

The versatile Teal Mask Ogerpon ex is a must-have for Grass-type lovers. Its unique ability to self-attach Energy makes it a powerhouse in fast-paced decks. With its stunning stained-glass-inspired reprint art and incredible synergy potential, this card is a game-changer for both competitive play and collectors seeking a true centerpiece.

5. Eevee ex

The mascot of the set doesn’t disappoint! Eevee ex and its "Rainbow DNA" ability allow it to evolve into any Eeveelution ex, making it future-proof for whatever The Pokémon Company throws at us. As 2025 is celebrated as the "Year of Eevee," this card is a must-have for both competitive players and collectors who love this iconic evolution line.

4. Espeon ex

If disruption is your game, Espeon ex is your card. Its "Psych Out" ability discards an opponent’s card while dealing 160 damage, and "Amazez" devolves all your opponent’s Pokémon, sending their strategy back to square one. It’s a troll card wrapped up in one of the prettiest Eeveelutions around. Competitive players will love its disruptive style, and collectors will adore its art.

3. Regigigas

Big, beefy, and built to break Tera Pokémon, Regigigas is making waves. Its attack "Jewel Breaker" hits for a jaw-dropping 330 damage against Tera Pokémon, making it a perfect counter to meta staples like Charizard ex. And the best part? It takes Colorless Energy, so it’s basically the Swiss Army knife of tech cards—versatile and effective in almost any deck.

2. Budew 

Who would've thought this adorable little sprout would be causing so much chaos? Don't let its 30 HP fool you –  this little bud packs a punch with its "Itchy Pollen" ability, locking opponents out of using Item cards. It’s the ultimate annoyance for setup-heavy decks like Charizard ex. And if you can get your hands on the ultra-rare Master Ball Foil version? Well, congratulations—you just pulled a meta-warping, collector’s dream.

1. Umbreon ex

Finally, the showstopper: Umbreon ex. Dubbed the new "Moonbreon," this card has collectors scrambling. Its kaleidoscopic art is a visual masterpiece, and it’s no slouch in competitive play either. With attacks like "Moon Mirage" for 160 damage and Confusion, and the unique "Onyx" move that lets you snag a Prize Card, Umbreon ex is both stunning and strategic. Plus, it’s tanky at 280 HP. Who doesn’t want a card that’s both a win condition and a work of art?
