The Gengar Prime card is one of the more mechanically unusual entries in the whole 30th Celebration Classic Collection — a Stage 2 built entirely around sending Pokemon to the Lost Zone instead of the discard pile, and the first time Gengar ever carried the „Prime“ treatment. If you searched for a gengar prime card guide after spotting 150/103 in the official 30th Celebration list, this covers exactly what the reprint is, what the original 2010 card actually does, and what comparable graded Gengar prints are listed today.
The official card list for 30th Celebration (M6a) was published by The Pokemon Company on 9 September 2026, and the Gengar Prime reprint is confirmed in it at number 150/103, illustrated by Takashi Yamaguchi. That places it in the 30-card Classic Collection block (136–165), already in the official database alongside the main set 001–103 and eight Basic Energy.
Gengar Prime 150/103 is a Classic Collection reprint of the 2010 HeartGold & SoulSilver: Triumphant Gengar (Prime), card 94/102, illustrated by Takashi Yamaguchi in both printings — a confirmed match. It carries a small „C“ mark beside the M6a set code and is not usable under current Standard regulations. No PSA10 of this exact Triumphant/Lost Link print is currently listed on our site, and the set has not released yet — it ships worldwide on 16 September 2026. The M6a 30th Celebration Booster Box is currently listed as a pre-order.
Today is 11 September 2026, five days ahead of 30th Celebration’s worldwide release. Every price below is a current listing on our own site or a marketplace ask dated 11 September 2026 — nothing here is a sale price, since the set has not shipped.
What Is the Gengar Prime Card at 150/103?
Gengar Prime 150/103 sits in 30th Celebration’s Classic Collection, a 30-card block numbered 136–165 that reprints cards from across the Pokemon TCG’s history in a sparkling holofoil, gold-bordered treatment. It carries a small „C“ mark beside the M6a set code and, per the official set rules, cards in this block are not usable under current Standard regulations — they remain legal only in whichever format their original printing is legal in.
Illustrator credit for 150/103 is Takashi Yamaguchi — the same artist who drew the original 2010 printing, a confirmed match (see below). Its Classic Collection stablemate Crobat G, at 149/103, comes from the same Platinum-to-HeartGold & SoulSilver stretch of the Classic Collection (Platinum, 2009, versus Triumphant, 2010); see our Crobat G 149/103 reprint guide if you’re covering both.
The Original Print: Triumphant, 2010
The card being reprinted at 150/103 is Gengar (Prime), card 94/102 from HeartGold & SoulSilver: Triumphant, the English expansion released 3 November 2010 (its Japanese origin is „Lost Link,“ card 015/040, Super Rare Holo). It was a Rare Holo Pokemon Prime, illustrated by Takashi Yamaguchi — matching the illustrator credited for the 150/103 reprint.
| Attribute | 2010 original (Triumphant 94/102) |
|---|---|
| Type / HP | Psychic / 130 |
| Stage | Stage 2 (evolves from Haunter), Pokemon Prime |
| Poke-BODY | Catastrophe — as long as Gengar is your Active Pokemon, if any of your opponent’s Pokemon would be Knocked Out, put that Pokemon in the Lost Zone instead of discarding it |
| Attack 1 | Hurl into Darkness (1 Psychic): look at your opponent’s hand and choose Pokemon there, up to the number of Energy attached to Gengar, and put them in the Lost Zone |
| Attack 2 | Cursed Drop (1 Psychic, 1 Colorless): put 4 damage counters on 1 of your opponent’s Pokemon in any way you like |
| Weakness | Darkness ×2 |
| Resistance | Colorless −20 |
| Retreat Cost | 0 |
As a reprint, 150/103 is expected to carry this same card text and stat line — the official card database entry for the Classic Collection does not publish a full-text listing separately, but „reprint“ in this block means the original card mechanics, not a new design.
Why Gengar Prime Made the Classic Collection
Gengar Prime’s significance comes from the mechanic it’s built around. Bulbapedia notes the card is „significant for its unique mechanic centered around the Lost Zone, which was a thematic focus of its release set,“ and that this was the first time Gengar appeared as a Pokemon Prime, in the Triumphant expansion. Catastrophe turning every opposing knockout into a Lost Zone removal, on top of Hurl into Darkness stripping the opponent’s hand, made Gengar Prime a genuinely disruptive centrepiece rather than just a big attacker — exactly the kind of format-defining design the Classic Collection is built to spotlight.
Gengar Prime sits alongside 29 other Classic Collection reprints spanning 1996 through the 2020s, including its Lost Link-era stablemate Darkrai & Cresselia LEGEND at 151/152/103. See our full 30th Celebration reprints list for the complete block.
Card Details
A quick reference for the 150/103 reprint alongside its confirmed original:
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Card name | Gengar (Prime) (JP: ゲンガー) |
| Classic Collection number | 150/103, illustrator Takashi Yamaguchi |
| Original print | Triumphant 94/102 (2010), illustrator Takashi Yamaguchi — match confirmed |
| Type / HP | Psychic / 130 |
| Standard legality | Not Standard-legal; legal only where the original print is legal |
Illustrator credits for the AR/SAR/FUR secret-rare block (104–135) — which includes an entirely separate Gengar ex SAR expected at 131/103, not yet shown — are not published anywhere, so the Classic Collection is one of the few places in this set where an illustrator credit is confirmed to match between old and new printings.
Market: Comparable Graded Gengar Prints Today
No PSA10 of the exact Triumphant/Lost Link Gengar Prime print is currently listed on our site. On SNKRDUNK, a search for the original card returns no relevant listings for this specific 2010 print — the only nearby result is an unrelated Trainer item card sharing part of the name, so there’s no usable ask figure for Gengar Prime itself as of 11 September 2026.
What we do have is a wide currently-listed Gengar PSA10 range across other sets, which gives useful context for where a graded Gengar sits once population starts appearing:
These are three different Gengar printings from three different sets, none of them the Triumphant Prime being reprinted here — but they’re the graded Gengar market we can point to today. This exact print is not listed on our site at the moment; sourcing requests go through Schnellbestellung.
On the sealed side, SNKRDUNK’s lowest ask on a 30th Celebration booster box moved from ¥47,200 (1 September) to ¥28,200 (10 September) to ¥23,599 (11 September), with the no-shrink variant at ¥21,399 — both trending down as release approaches.
