Mega Eelektross ex - 278/217 - ME: Ascended Heroes (ASC)
Mega Eelektross ex — 278/217 Special Illustration Rare from Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution—Ascended Heroes is exactly the kind of card that makes a binder stop traffic. Numbered beyond the set's 217-card base, this SIR sits firmly in the Secret Rare tier — one of 78 Secret Rares printed in what is officially the largest English Pokémon TCG expansion ever released. The artwork, rendered by illustrator akagi, gives Mega Eelektross the full cinematic treatment that collectors have come to chase in the SIR format.

Ascended Heroes isn't a routine set drop — it's a historic 295-card milestone built around the Mega Evolution revival tied to Pokémon Legends: Z-A, and it introduced the brand-new Mega Attack Rare rarity alongside an SIR lineup collectors are actively master-setting. Eelektross is a fan-favorite sleeper in that roster, and akagi's full-art treatment elevates it well above a filler pull. Raw NM copies in the $36–$44 range represent real value for a card from the biggest English set ever printed — before grading demand catches up.
