Post-2016 With the introduction of new mechanics and power creep, GX and VMAX cards often overshadowed EX cards in competitive play, shifting Greninja EX's value more towards collectibility than playability. ## SET RELEASE & PRINT RUN The XY BREAKpoint expansion was released in February 2016 for the English Pokémon TCG.

[How does authenticity detection work?](/fake-art-detection) ## GRADING EXPERT'S TAKE Trading Card Market Analyst Card Specialist The card's identity as Greninja EX from XY BREAKpoint is clear from the visible text and artwork. The condition, however, is heavily affected by the prominent crease, which is clearly visible. ### KEY EVIDENCE - 1 Clearly identifiable as 'Greninja EX' from the Pokémon XY BREAKpoint set. - 2 Card text, HP (170), and attacks ('Sharpshooting', 'Aqua Blast') are consistent with the official card. - 3 The full art design and holographic sheen indicate it is a Full Art variant. - 4 The horizontal crease and general wear point to moderate to heavy played condition. ### UNCERTAINTIES - • The severe horizontal crease significantly impacts the card's condition and value. ### WHAT WOULD IMPROVE CERTAINTY - → Examine the card's reverse side for additional wear or markings. - → Confirm the set symbol and card number (typically located at the bottom left) to verify the exact set and rarity. - → Inspect the borders and corners closely for any signs of whitening or peeling indicative of heavy play. - → Consider placing the card in a protective sleeve to prevent further damage. COLLECTOR GLOSSARY (4 terms) ## CONDITION & GRADE ### Condition The card appears to have significant wear and tear. There is a noticeable crease or bend running horizontally through the middle of the card, affecting both the artwork and the text. The corners show some whitening, and edges exhibit minor fraying and wear. This would place the card in a heavily played condition. ## TRADING CARD MARKET VALUE $15 - $50 Updated: Feb 27, 2026 How we estimate value - Market comparables from auctions & retail - Condition, completeness & craftsmanship - Current collector demand & trends - Low = quick sale, high = patient seller For informational purposes only, not a formal appraisal. ## FROM THE CABINET OF [MO ](/cabinet/momofthecircus) [ ### Momofthecircus ](/cabinet/momofthecircus) The Connoisseur • 91 items [View Full Cabinet](/cabinet/momofthecircus) ### COMMENTS No comments yet.
