COLLECTOR'S BREAKDOWN: MEDITIE - STELLAR CROWN (ILLUSTRATION RARE) [SCR DE 153/142]

A German-language Pokémon TCG card featuring Meditite (Meditie) in a lush jungle setting. This 'Illustration Rare' (IR) variant showcases full-bleed artwork by Yuriko Akase, depicting the Pokémon in a tranquil, meditative state hanging from a vine. The card is professionally entombed in a Beckett Grading Services (BGS) 'Gold Label' slab, featuring the classic subgrade breakdown on the inner flip.

CULTURAL CARD LORE

Where This Object Echoes

Hinduism & BuddhismAncient to Present

Meditite’s design and name are directly inspired by practitioners of Yoga and meditation (Dhyana).

Ritual & Ceremonial Use

•Meditation and mindfulness practices designed to heighten spiritual energy (Prana).

Meaning Through Time

Classical Antiquity

CARD HISTORY & PRINT RUNS

Released in 2024 as part of the 'Stellar Crown' (Stellar-Expansion) set, this card marks the modern 'Scarlet & Violet' era's focus on high-art Illustration Rares. The set introduced the Stellar Tera type mechanic, though this specific card serves as a 'collectible art' chase piece. In the franchise lore, Meditite is known for its rigorous mental discipline and yoga-like focus, which Yuriko Akase captures here through a soft, textured illustrative style that deviates from standard 3D or cel-shaded game art.

COLLECTOR INTEL

Meditie is the German name for Meditite, derived from 'meditieren' (to meditate).

Illustration Rares like this one have a much lower pull rate than standard cards, typically appearing only once or twice in a 36-pack booster box.

CONDITION & GRADE

Condition

Professionally graded BGS 9.5 (Gem Mint). Subgrades: Centering 9, Corners 9.5, Edges 9.5, Surface 10. The 9 centering subgrade is the bottleneck preventing a 'Pristine 10' grade.

Surface

Holographic foil finish with a textured surface typical of modern Illustration Rares; BGS 'Surface 10' indicates a flawless factory finish without print lines or scratches.

Weight & feel

The slabbed unit feels substantial and rigid, typical of the thick Beckett acrylic holder which provides superior UV and physical protection compared to standard sleeves.
