Prism Star Pokémon cards at a glance
- What this group is. 27 cards share the mechanic Prism Star. A mechanic is the special kind a card is printed as — V, VMAX and ex among Pokémon, Item, Supporter and Stadium among Trainers — recorded with each card in the card files this site reads. Evolution stages are counted on their own, and a plain card carries no mechanic at all, so this axis covers only the part of the archive that has one.
- What they cost. The typical card is $5.41. Across the 27 priced cards the range runs $0.70 to $22.27.
- Where it stands. No. 13 of 28 mechanics by typical price, with 15 of them cheaper.
- What the cards are like. They average 126 HP and 75 maximum damage, and are most often weak to Fighting.
- What is listed below. Every one of the 27 cards that carries a price, each with its own price page. The other 0 are counted in the total but have no published price, so they are not listed.
- When it was read. Every figure on this page comes from the archive as it stood on August 14, 2026.

Each row compares the middle price of the whole group on two days. It is not the change of any single card — a card can fall while the group rises, which is what the movers list below shows.
The typical Prism Star card rose from $2.19 to $5.41 over the 11 months on file — +147.0%. A rising middle means the ordinary card of this group got dearer, not just the headline one at the top of the list.
How Prism Star Pokémon card prices are spread
Each half circle is the whole price range of the 27 priced Prism Star cards, from $0.70 to $22.27, with the tenfold steps evenly spaced. The last one is read differently — it counts cards rather than dollars, and says so in its own label.
How every Prism Star card with a price falls into price bands — 27 cards counted, not just the ones drawn above. Each track is the whole group, so the empty part of a bar is the share that sits outside that band.
The longest bar is where an ordinary Prism Star card actually sits. Bands read the market price of each card on August 14, 2026.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Under $1 | 7.4% | 2 cards |
| $1 to $5 | 40.7% | 11 cards |

| Dearest tenth, from | $16.62 | — |
| Average | $6.71 | — |
| Dearest | $22.27 | $22.27 |
The two columns are different groups of cards, not two readings of the same one — the right column is the dearest end of the left one. "Typical" is the middle price, which half the cards sit below; "average" is pulled upward by the few very expensive cards, which is why the two differ.
The average price of a Prism Star card is $6.71 while the typical one is $5.41. The gap between those two numbers is the shape of this group: the cards sit close together, so the average and the typical price say roughly the same thing.
What three quarters of the 27 priced Prism Star cards cost
One in four Prism Star cards costs $1.72 or less, half cost $5.41 or less, and three in four cost $10.10 or less. Only the top quarter runs past $10.10, and the dearest tenth starts at $16.62.

| Measure | Lowest | Lower quarter | Typical | Upper quarter | Highest | Cards counted |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HP | 40 | 90 | 135 | 160 | 160 | 16 |
| Biggest attack | 10 | 25 | 50 | 120 | 160 | 15 |
Trainer and energy cards carry no HP or attack, so they are left out of these counts rather than entered as zero. "Biggest attack" is the largest printed damage number on the card, before any condition the attack text adds.
HP printed on the 16 Prism Star cards that carry one. The typical card is 135 HP. Bar length is that HP against the highest in the group.
Half of these cards sit between 90 and 160 HP. The distance between the two ends is what a single average would have hidden.
| Group | Share | Value |

| Lowest | 25.0% of the highest | 40 HP |

| Upper quarter | 100.0% of the highest | 160 HP |
| Highest | 100.0% of the highest | 160 HP |
The largest printed damage number on each of the 15 Prism Star cards that print one. The typical card hits for 50. Bar length is that number against the hardest hitter in the group.
Half of these cards hit between 25 and 120. Attack text that adds a condition is not counted here — only the printed number.

What are Prism Star Pokémon cards weak to?
What Prism Star Pokémon cards are weak to — 16 cards counted. Each track is the whole of that count, so a short bar means most of the group sits elsewhere.
An attack of this type does double damage to the card. Counted across the 16 Prism Star cards that print a weakness.

Standard and Expanded are the two tournament formats. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year while the card itself does not change.
Each track is the whole of the 27 Prism Star cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.
The rows are not slices of one whole — a card can be legal in Standard and carry an Ability at the same time, so the bars are read one at a time against the group.

Which Prism Star Pokémon cards moved most this year
21 Prism Star cards tracked across the yearSee the group line
A group line and a card line are not the same thing. The Prism Star group rose over this window, yet the cards above ran from +33.6% to +253.8% — which is why a figure taken from the group tells you what to expect, and only the card page tells you what happened.
The cheapest Prism Star Pokémon cards you can buy
Read from the same daily price archive as the rest of this page. A low price usually means the card is common rather than that it is a bargain.
Set and number are what you match against a listing; two cards with the same name are different cards if either of those differs.
How Prism Star compares with the other mechanics
28 mechanics in totalSee them all
Prism Star is No. 13 of 28 mechanics by typical price, with 15 of them cheaper and 12 dearer. Rank is not the same as scarcity: a group can rank high because a handful of its cards are chased, while most of it stays affordable — the price ladder above shows which of those two is happening here.
How much energy do Prism Star Pokémon cards need to attack?

Damage per HP is that group's average biggest attack divided by its average HP: a larger number means the group hits harder for the size it prints. Both averages are counted only across the cards that carry the number at all, and Trainer and Energy cards carry neither. Only groups large enough to have their own page are listed.
