01Top 10 Notable Ekans Cards

Ekans is a purple snake with one trick — and a card run to match. There's no grail here, just a few e-Card and Rocket-era reverse holos that reward the patient, plus the Gym-era Koga's print that ties the snake to its rightful Gym Leader. Priciest first.

Ekans — Expedition Base Set #108
Rank 01 · The Holy Grail

Ekans — Expedition Base Set #108

The e-Card era opened with Expedition in 2002, and its reverse holos are sleepers thanks to brutal centering. A clean Ekans from this set tops the line on scarcity alone.
