mienshao pokemon card Furious Fists Uncommon #57 Furious Fists Type Pokemon - Black & White

Early versions include shadowless and 1st Edition prints, which are the most valuable

Some competitors have opted not to use Absol in a deck that can take advantage of it, notably Jason Klaczynski in his 2013 World Championships winning Darkrai-EX deck

You can also build custom decks and participate in battles, which use a simplified set of rules from the normal Pokemon Trading Card Game, translating into shorter games with more frequency played, rather than longer, drawn-out matches with more extensive rule sets

There are only 17 cards (and six holographic variations) in this set, but out of those 17, eight of them regularly sell for well over $100.00

A slightly rarer Pikachu card released as part of the Pokmon Celebrations set goes for $0.45 in English via TCGPlayer, or $20.13 in Japanese via eBay
