# Yanmega ex #206/182 — Destined Rivals

## Summary

Yanmega ex rides on a Sinnoh bug that fans have long wanted a strong card for, and its Buzzing Boost gave Grass decks a real energy-acceleration engine in Destined Rivals-era play. As an Ultra Rare it sits in the set's upper chase tier, and takuyoa's name adds a draw of its own. At a $0.83 modelled guide, down 24% over 30 days on 436 copies traded, with only 42 days of inventory on the board, 43% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.47 out of Destined Rivals; a PSA 10 brings $45, 54 times raw, but a 59% gem rate against $65 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
