# R Energy (Japanese) #020 — Black Deck Kit

## Summary

Japanese collectors got R Energy in Black Deck Kit, a deck-product release from November 2004, and its listing places the same Special Energy in the English Team Rocket Returns set a few weeks earlier. The card is dominated by a blurred red R behind a glossy dark orb, a clean emblem that suits the villain-team theme. As a Special Energy it was a deck staple for Dark Pokémon rather than a chase pull, so interest comes from Team Rocket nostalgia. The sold median sits at $1.60 with no copies traded in 30 days; no PSA population is on file, and a PSA 10 would fetch about $73 against $65 in grading fees.
