07Why Collectors Want It

  • A 'Shining' card — Neo Destiny's alternate-color holo rarity, secret-numbered #106/105.
  • Celebi is a fan-favorite mythical; its Shining is the definitive vintage chase for the line.
  • 1st Edition is the premium variant for WotC-era collectors.
  • 1st Edition verified ~$551 raw, PSA 10 ~$10,244; Unlimited ~$338 raw / PSA 10 ~$3,431 (PriceCharting, May 2026).
  • Shining holo foil scratches easily, so gem-mint copies are scarce.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

Basic Celebi with 50 HP; top attack around 10 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Healing Water Cost: Water

Remove a number of damage counters from 1 of your Benched Pokémon equal to the number of Water Energy cards attached to Shining Celebi. If the Pokémon has fewer damage counters than that, remove all of them.

Miracle Leaf Cost: Grass + Psychic · 10 damage

Flip a number of coins equal to the number of Energy attached to the Defending Pokémon. If you get 1 or more heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Asleep, Confused, or Poisoned (your choice).

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: 1st Edition PSA 10 ~$10,244 against ~$551 raw; Unlimited PSA 10 ~$3,431 against ~$338 raw (PriceCharting realized, May 2026).

Shining holos show the era's signature foil scratching; 1st Edition gem mints are the scarce, premium tier.

Other graders: PSA leads resale on WotC-era Shinings; BGS and CGC copies trade beneath an equivalent PSA 10.
