Meloetta EX and Shaymin EX headline Shiny Collection, a Japanese Pokémon TCG expansion from the Black & White era, released on February 1, 2013 under the set code SC. It is a compact run of 25 catalog printings, and Meloetta EX appears in two versions, which makes it the one name the set repeats. Beyond the EX cards, the list leans on familiar favorites like Pikachu, Eevee, Piplup and Growlithe, which gives the card list a different character from the heavier expansions around it.
The pull structure in Shiny Collection is short: commons and uncommons fill most of the list, a single rare sits above them, and five Super Rares form the chase tier. Meloetta EX is the most valuable card at Super Rare, followed by Shaymin EX, then the uncommon Pikachu, with Emolga and Eevee next. Because the set is so small, value is tightly packed, and the top five cards hold 57 percent of the set's total card value. The most valuable cards here are a handful of Super Rares plus a few sought-after uncommons.
As of October 2026, Shiny Collection ranks 1st in total card value among the 18 comparable Black & White sets, at about 2.8 times the era median, and 49th across the whole game. It also leads its era in trading activity, though its single most valuable card ranks only 7th among the era's top cards. It followed BW8: Thunder Knuckle and came before BW9: Megalo Cannon, and both hold lower total value. English collectors will know its cards from Legendary Treasures, which carries 23 of them and arrived 9 months later, after the Japanese release.

Completing Shiny Collection means chasing 25 catalog printings, 23 of them priced. Since the top five cards account for 57 percent of the set's value, the Super Rares and a few uncommons decide the cost of a complete set far more than the commons do. The set's sealed line is small, made up of a booster box and a booster pack, so the Japanese card list is best approached card by card with the chase tier in mind.
