07Why Collectors Want It
- A Gold Star (★): the EX era's rarest pull rate, roughly one per booster box, with alternate shiny-style art.
- Secret-numbered #113/115 — the first of the Entei ★ / Raikou ★ / Suicune ★ trio that closes EX Unseen Forces (2005).
- The legendary-beasts Gold Star trio is one of the most chased sub-sets of the EX era.
- Verified at ~$682 raw, PSA 10 ~$8,117 (PriceCharting, May 2026).
- A low gem-mint population drives the graded premium.

10Grading and Population
PSA 10 estimate: PSA 10 ~$8,117 against ~$682 raw (PriceCharting realized, May 2026).
Gold-star foil scratching and edge-whitening are the usual downgrades; clean high-grade copies are scarce.
Other graders: PSA leads resale on Gold Stars; BGS and CGC gem copies trade beneath an equivalent PSA 10.
