Exeggutor is a Grass Pokemon in every game it has appeared in. On this card, it is not.
Alolan Exeggutor ex SAR (089/064) is the special-art-rare chase card from Paradise Dragona, and the first thing most collectors notice — after the towering full-art illustration — is that the Pokemon Company printed it as a Dragon-type. That is not a misprint. It is a deliberate TCG-rules choice that sits alongside a 300 HP stat line and a coin-flip attack built to punish small Basic Pokemon.
This guide covers exactly what the card is, where it comes from, why its typing looks unusual, and what a PSA10 copy is currently listed at on our site.
Alolan Exeggutor ex SAR (089/064) (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order) is a 300 HP Stage 1 card from Paradise Dragona (SV7a), Japan’s September 13, 2024 enhanced expansion pack. In this print it is typed as Dragon — not Grass, despite the species being Grass/Dragon in the core games. A PSA10 graded copy is currently listed at ¥13,345 (~$83.9).
Prices are converted at ¥159/USD (September 2026). The figure below is our own currently listed price for this graded card, not a third-party market average.
What Is Alolan Exeggutor ex SAR (089/064)?
Alolan Exeggutor ex (JP: アローラ ナッシーex) is a Stage 1 Pokemon that evolves from Exeggcute. It carries 300 HP and two attacks: Tropical Fever, which attaches a basic Energy card straight from hand, and Bumblebee Sphere, a coin-flip attack that targets an opponent’s Basic Pokemon.
| Field | Detail |
|---|---|
| Card name | Alolan Exeggutor ex |
| Card number | 089/064 |
| Rarity | SAR (Special Art Rare) |
| Set | Paradise Dragona (SV7a) |
| HP | 300 |
| TCG type | Dragon |
| Stage | Stage 1 (evolves from Exeggcute) |
| JPN release | September 13, 2024 |
The two-attack kit is straightforward on paper — ramp Energy with Tropical Fever, then look for a Bumblebee Sphere coin flip against a vulnerable Basic — but the card’s real draw for most buyers is the full-art SAR illustration rather than tournament output. It is one of the set’s headline chase pulls from Paradise Dragona.
Why Is Alolan Exeggutor a Dragon-Type Card?
In the core Pokemon video games, Alolan Exeggutor is a Grass/Dragon dual-type Pokemon. On this card, the Pokemon Trading Card Game assigns it a single TCG energy type — Dragon — rather than Grass. That is a factual quirk of how the TCG maps video-game typing onto its own energy-type system, not an error on the card or in this guide.
If you are cataloguing your collection by TCG energy type rather than video-game typing, file this card under Dragon, alongside other Alolan Exeggutor prints that share the same TCG-type treatment.
This is worth flagging because the mismatch trips up collectors sorting by species type rather than by the card’s printed energy type. The card itself, its attacks, and its Weakness/Resistance lines are all built around the Dragon typing as printed.
Paradise Dragona: The Set It Comes From
Paradise Dragona (SV7a) is a Japanese enhanced expansion pack released on September 13, 2024, with a set total of 94 cards. As the name suggests, Dragon-type Pokemon are the set’s organizing theme, which is exactly why a species normally associated with Grass energy shows up here printed as Dragon — Alolan Exeggutor ex’s TCG typing lines up with the set’s Dragon focus rather than its in-game typing.

Card Number and What SAR Rarity Means
The card is numbered 089/064 — a number higher than the set’s nominal 64-card main count, which is the standard Japanese TCG convention for secret and special-art-rare slots printed beyond a set’s base numbering. SAR stands for Special Art Rare: a full-art illustration treatment reserved for a small number of chase cards per set, distinct from the set’s regular holo and ultra-rare tiers.
Because SAR slots are limited per set and print run, only a fixed number of chase-card copies exist beyond a set’s regular numbering. A PSA10 graded copy of this SAR is currently listed at ¥13,345 (~$83.9) (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order).
Alolan Exeggutor and the Alola Region
Alolan Exeggutor is a regional-form evolution first introduced with the Alola region in the Pokemon Sun & Moon games — a regional variant of the original Exeggutor line, not a starter Pokemon. Regional forms like this one are a distinct category from the three starter Pokemon each region introduces, and Alolan Exeggutor’s tall, elongated Dragon-typed design is one of the more visually distinctive regional forms in the franchise.

Where This SAR Sits Among Other Modern ex Chase Cards
Paradise Dragona’s Alolan Exeggutor ex SAR belongs to a wider run of full-art SAR and SR chase cards that Japanese Scarlet & Violet-era sets have produced since 2023 — each tied to its own set, character, and Pokemon rather than a single unified “chase card” line. A few for visual comparison:
None of these are printings of Alolan Exeggutor ex, and none share its set, number, or artwork — they’re shown purely to illustrate the wider full-art SAR/SR category this card belongs to. Each set runs its own independent pull rates and secondary-market pricing, so treat these as separate collecting targets rather than substitutes for the Paradise Dragona SAR.
