# Mesprit (Japanese) #315 — Start Deck 100 Battle Collection

## Summary

Mesprit floats in front of a dusky orange-and-pink sunset on this Japanese common, arms spread wide with its long ribbon tails trailing out to either side, a calm pose that suits the Emotion pokémon. The card was part of Start Deck 100 Battle Collection, released in Japan in December 2025, over a year after the same Mesprit appeared in the English Surging Sparks set. As a common it is a bulk-tier pickup, appreciated mostly by Lake Guardian fans. The modelled guide sits at $1.81, down 10% over 30 days on 1 copy traded, with 364 days of inventory on the board; no PSA population is on file.
