1st edition pokemon cards year Mint Condition Card Set Sells for $666,000 Pokémon 1st/2nd Generation from 1999!

Compared to Gouging Flame and Raging Bolt, Walking Wakes Special Illustration Rare depicts it in a more active environment, clambering around tall branches, likely in pursuit of its prey

Red has access to a good amount of cards with this effect

The entire set as one sells for over $10,000, and it is only rising, but this Maleficent card is the most expensive of them all because it is a powerful card that has since become iconic in many Ruby-themed decks, not to mention the artwork is fantastic

Its main drawback is that its a Stage 2 Pokemon so there is some setup required to take advantage of everything it offers

I had a board state which would let me respond to almost everything by exiling it, so no one bothered

Garfield didn't want the art to be publicly displayed, presumably for privacy reasons since their likenesses appear in the art
