Charizard 137/103 vs Crystal Lugia 142/103: M6a Reprints

Charizard 137/103 vs Crystal Lugia 142/103: M6a Reprints

Charizard 137/103 and Crystal Lugia 142/103 belong to the same 30th CELEBRATION Classic Collection block, but they are distinct cards with different illustrations and printed mechanics. Charizard is a 120 HP Stage 2 credited to Mitsuhiro Arita. Lugia is an 80 HP Colorless Basic credited to Naoyo Kimura.

For collectors comparing the two, the useful questions are which design you want, which condition category the offer describes and whether you want an identified single or sealed M6a product. The asking-price comparison below keeps the September 18, 2026 timestamp and marketplace condition labels together.

Key Takeaways

At 19:12 JST on September 18, the lowest displayed raw asks on SNKRDUNK were ¥19,800 for M6a Charizard and ¥22,000 for Crystal Lugia. They are asks, not completed sales. The M6a Sealed option (see current price and availability); no specific Charizard or Lugia outcome is promised. For either named single, sourcing requests go through Quick Order.

Two Cards in the Same Reprint Block

M6a released on September 16, 2026. Its Classic Collection contains 30 reprints numbered 136–165, within 165 numbered cards plus eight Basic Energy. Both Charizard and the Crystal Lugia reprint sit in that block, rather than the regular 001–103 sequence.

The shared subset gives you a set-based collecting route; it does not make the two cards interchangeable. Match the full collector number whenever a listing shortens its title to “30th reprint” or uses “Crystal Lugia” without identifying the edition.

The M6a card listing provides the set context. The Charizard reprint hub and Lugia anniversary guide cover each subject separately.

What Identifies Charizard 137/103

The official Charizard record gives Stage 2, LV.76 and HP120. Its ほのおのうず attack does 100 damage and requires discarding two attached Energy cards. The special rule allows attached non-Fire Energy to be treated as Fire and cannot be used when Charizard is Confused.

Those details identify the specified Japanese reprint. They should not be replaced with an English Base Set ability description, or with the higher HP and attack damage of CP6 011/087. Read the set code and number before using another card’s text as a reference.

A familiar illustration can appear in different collecting contexts. Our Charizard M6a-versus-CP6 comparison shows the printed differences for that pair, while the 25th Anniversary comparison explains the S8a-P 001/025 promo-pack route.

If the purpose of your collection is the M6a reprint block, 137/103 is the identifier to retain. If your purpose is a particular earlier anniversary Charizard, use that earlier printing’s complete number instead.

What Identifies Crystal Lugia 142/103

The official Lugia record names ルギア and credits Naoyo Kimura. It gives 80 HP, Colorless type, Basic stage, Psychic weakness ×2, no resistance and a retreat cost of three.

Its Poké-Body クリスタルタイプ changes the Pokémon’s type until the end of the turn when a Basic Fire, Water or Psychic Energy is attached from the hand: the Pokémon takes that Energy’s type. This is the text attached to the pictured M6a 142/103 printing.

サイコキネシス does 10 damage for each Energy card attached to the opponent’s Active Pokémon. スチームブラスト does 50 damage and discards one Energy card attached to Lugia. The English descriptions here render the Japanese record, without adding a deck strategy or a claim about another Lugia card’s mechanics.

The original Crystal Lugia identified as e3 090/087 is a different printing. Its number should not be merged with an M6a asking price. The Crystal Lugia reprint-versus-original guide keeps those identities separate.

Compare the Same Marketplace Condition Category

The following amounts appeared on September 18, 2026 at 19:12 JST, on the Charizard 137/103 page and Lugia 142/103 page. The timestamp belongs to the whole table; earlier observations should retain their own times.

Displayed category Charizard 137/103 Lugia 142/103
Lowest raw asking price ¥19,800 ¥22,000
Condition A ask ¥24,000 ¥25,999
Condition B ask ¥19,800 ¥22,000
Condition C ¥24,999 Awaiting listings
PSA 10 Awaiting listings Awaiting listings

A/B/C are marketplace condition categories. They are not PSA grades, and an A category does not make two physical cards identical in appearance. The seller’s complete images and specific condition description still matter when choosing between individual offers.

“Awaiting listings” describes the displayed state at that timestamp. It is not a statement that no card has ever been graded or offered for sale. It also does not justify filling the cell with a guessed amount.

The table records asking prices, not transaction results. It does not show how many cards sold, why a figure changed, how difficult either card is to obtain from a box or which card will have a higher future price. Use the matching categories to compare the actual offers under consideration.

If you want a PSA 10 card, seek a specifically identified graded offer rather than turning a raw ask into an assumed PSA price. Keep the grading company, grade and exact M6a number with that offer.

Keep Lugia 097/103 Separate

M6a also contains Lugia 097/103 in the main set. Its official record gives 120 HP and credits Kazuki Minami. It is a different number and illustration from the 80 HP Crystal Lugia reprint at 142/103.

Lugia 097/103 — M6a 30th CELEBRATION
Lugia 097/103 — M6a 30th CELEBRATION

This distinction matters when browsing a seller’s catalogue: “Lugia 30th Celebration” can describe a listing whose number is 097/103. The asking-price table in this comparison concerns 142/103. A photograph or price for 097/103 should not be used to fill a missing 142/103 detail.

Our Lugia anniversary guide covers both M6a identifiers. The wider Lugia guide gives the route to other families such as Lugia V and older cards.

An Identified Pair or a Booster Box

For a two-card collecting goal, write down Charizard M6a 137/103 and Lugia M6a 142/103 as separate targets. Confirm the number and condition of each offer independently. There is no need to assume that the same seller condition letter produces an identical visual result across both cards.

For opening booster product, our M6a Sealed option (see current price and availability). Select the exact variant and read its current dispatch terms. No verified Charizard-specific or Crystal-Lugia-specific pull rate is stated here, and a box purchase does not assure either specific card.

A collector seeking an already identified graded Charizard from another anniversary can separately consider the S8a-P 001/025 PSA 10 backorder offer at ¥86,736. It is not M6a 137/103, so keep that alternative clearly labelled. The 25th Anniversary guide covers it.

Where to Buy

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Charizard 137/103 and Lugia 142/103 in the same subset?

Yes. Both are in M6a’s Classic Collection reprint block, numbered 136–165. They remain different cards with different illustrations and text.

Who illustrated the two M6a reprints?

The official records credit Mitsuhiro Arita for Charizard 137/103 and Naoyo Kimura for Lugia 142/103.

SNKRDUNK displayed ¥19,800 for Charizard 137/103 and ¥22,000 for Lugia 142/103. These were advertised asking prices, not completed-sale results.

Is condition A the same as PSA 10?

No card-specific guarantee or verified pull rate is supplied here. For either identified single, sourcing requests go through Quick Order; a booster box is a different buying route.
