# Mega Dragonite ex #271/217 — Ascended Heroes

## Summary

Dragonite has been a Kantō favorite since the Red and Blue days, the gentle giant of the first generation, and Mega Dragonite ex pairs that affection with a heavy-hitting Stage 2 built to be played. As an Ultra Rare in a premium set it sits above the ordinary pulls, with DOM as illustrator. At a $25 sold median, down 35% over 30 days on 1,006 copies traded, with only 4 days of inventory on the board, 80% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $4.96 out of Ascended Heroes; a CGC 10 brings $105, 4.2 times raw, but a 75% gem rate against $45 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
