Palkia LV.X 147/103 revives one of the Diamond & Pearl era’s defining mechanics: LV.X, the short-lived card type that let a Pokemon “level up” mid-game and inherit every attack and Power from its previous stage. The 2008 original closed out Great Encounters at the very top of the set number, and the 30th CELEBRATION reprint brings it back with its Restructure Power and Hydro Reflect attack untouched.
This guide covers what card number 147/103 is, the 2008 original it reprints, why LV.X as a mechanic is worth understanding before you read the card text, and what the market looks like for comparable Palkia prints today. We ship Japanese sealed product and singles out of Tokyo, so every current price below is one of our own live listings or a dated marketplace figure.
Palkia LV.X 147/103 reprints the 2008 Diamond & Pearl — Great Encounters Rare Holo LV.X (#106/106) illustrated by Ryo Ueda — Restructure and Hydro Reflect, unchanged. It carries a Classic Collection “C” mark and is not Standard-legal. This exact original print isn’t listed on our site at the time of writing; other graded Palkia-species PSA10 cards are, and the M6a 30th CELEBRATION booster box containing the reprint is currently taking pre-orders.

What Is the Palkia LV.X 147/103 Reprint?
Pokemon published the official card list for M6a 30th CELEBRATION on 9 September 2026, and it covers the main set (001–103), the Classic Collection (136–165) and the eight Basic Energy in full. Palkia LV.X sits inside that confirmed Classic Collection block, at card number 147/103, JP name パルキア LV.X, illustrator Ryo Ueda — both the card number and the illustrator credit are in the official pokemon-card.com database.

Like the other 29 cards in the 136–165 run, Palkia LV.X carries the set’s Classic Collection “C” mark next to the M6a set code and is explicitly not usable under current Standard rules — it’s a display and collecting card, playable only in whichever legacy format the 2008 original is legal in. Two independent English-language checklist trackers (Bill’s Archive and thornberrymedia), compiling the equivalent English “30th Celebration” Ultra-Premium Collection, both list this same card as slot 12 of 30 in their reprint run, matching our Japanese numbering. Pokemon itself has not published a formal slot-by-slot checklist for the block — only Charizard and Pikachu & Zekrom-GX carry a Pokemon-confirmed pick; Palkia LV.X, like the rest, is “reported.”

The Original Print: Great Encounters Palkia LV.X #106/106
The card being reprinted is Palkia LV.X, Diamond & Pearl — Great Encounters (GE), #106/106, 2008 — a Rare Holo LV.X, an Ultra Rare printed at the very top of the set at #106/106, illustrated by Ryo Ueda. On the Japanese side, Bulbapedia’s fetched summary gives the source set as “Shining Darkness” and lists the card number as “DP3” — that reads more like a set-code abbreviation than an actual card number, and we couldn’t independently confirm it, so treat the Japanese original’s exact number as unverified.
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Original set / number | Diamond & Pearl — Great Encounters (GE), #106/106 |
| Year | 2008 |
| Rarity | Rare Holo LV.X (Ultra Rare) |
| Illustrator | Ryo Ueda |
| Type / HP / Stage | Water / 120 / Level Up (evolves from Palkia) |
| Power — Restructure | Once per turn before attacking, have your opponent switch 1 of your Active Pokemon with 1 of your Benched Pokemon, then you switch 1 of the Defending Pokemon with 1 of the opponent’s Benched Pokemon |
| Attack — Hydro Reflect (Water ×3) | 60 damage; you may move all Energy attached to Palkia to your Benched Pokemon in any way (ignored if you have no Benched Pokemon) |
| Weakness / Resistance / Retreat | Lightning / None / 3 |
The card also received multiple later reprints and promotional releases, including a 2008 Spring Collector’s Tins version, so it stayed in circulation well beyond its original Great Encounters print run.
What LV.X Actually Did
LV.X was a short-lived Diamond & Pearl-era card type built around “levelling up” a Pokemon already on your Bench or Active spot mid-game, rather than evolving normally from a lower stage. Per Bulbapedia, an LV.X card “can use any attack, Poke-Power, or Poke-Body from its previous Level” — meaning a Palkia LV.X in play could fall back on the attacks of the regular Palkia it levelled up from, on top of its own Restructure Power and Hydro Reflect attack. That inheritance is what made LV.X cards function almost like a free upgrade rather than a separate Pokemon: you kept everything the base card could do and added more on top.
LV.X was a Diamond & Pearl-era card type that no longer appears in modern sets, which is part of why an LV.X reprint fits naturally into a “history of the game” block like the Classic Collection.
Comparable Graded Palkia Prints and Current Asks
M6a hasn’t released, so there’s no transaction history yet for 147/103 itself, and we don’t currently list a graded copy of the exact Great Encounters #106/106 original. SNKRDUNK does show asks for Palkia LV.X from the Japanese Standard Constructed Deck “Palkia LV.X” (set code DP3) — the same set code Bulbapedia’s summary referenced for the Japanese original above, though we can’t independently confirm it’s the identical print. As of 11 September 2026, those deck-exclusive Palkia LV.X asks are ¥11,111 for the 1st Edition copy (3 listings) and ¥15,999 for the plain non-1st-Edition version (4 listings) — treat these as evidence of demand for Palkia LV.X generally, not as a price for the Great Encounters #106/106 print specifically. (The regular, non-LV.X Palkia from the same deck asks separately, from ¥2,888.)
We currently list several graded Palkia-species PSA10 prints — different cards from 147/103’s original, but the clearest live picture of where graded Palkia demand sits right now:
None of these three is the LV.X original, but our Arceus, Dialga & Palkia GX guide and Origin Forme Palkia VSTAR guide cover those printings in depth if you want the full picture beyond this reprint. Sealed M6a product has moved fast ahead of release: SNKRDUNK’s lowest ask on the 20-pack box was ¥47,200 on September 1, ¥28,200 on September 10, and ¥23,599 on September 11 — asks, not sales.

자주 묻는 질문
What is the Palkia LV.X 147/103 card in 30th Celebration?
It’s a Classic Collection reprint of the 2008 Diamond & Pearl — Great Encounters Palkia LV.X (#106/106, Rare Holo LV.X, illustrated by Ryo Ueda), carrying the same Restructure Power and Hydro Reflect attack. It has a “C” Classic Collection mark and is not Standard-legal.
What did the LV.X card mechanic do?
LV.X cards levelled up a Pokemon already in play and could use any attack, Poke-Power, or Poke-Body from that Pokemon’s previous Level, on top of their own new abilities and attacks — effectively an upgrade rather than a new evolution.
What does Palkia LV.X’s Restructure Power do?
Once per turn before attacking, you have your opponent switch one of your Active Pokemon with one of your Benched Pokemon, then you switch one of the Defending Pokemon with one of the opponent’s Benched Pokemon — a repositioning effect for both sides of the field.
Can I buy Palkia LV.X 147/103 from Samurai Sword Tokyo right now?
It isn’t listed as a single yet since M6a hasn’t released, and we don’t currently list a graded copy of the exact Great Encounters original. The M6a booster box that will contain the reprint is currently taking pre-orders; sourcing requests for the single go through Quick Order.
Is Palkia LV.X 147/103 tournament legal?
No. Classic Collection cards carry a “C” mark and cannot be used under current Standard rules; they remain legal only in whichever legacy format the original 2008 printing is legal in.
When does M6a 30th CELEBRATION release?
Wednesday, 16 September 2026, worldwide, at ¥360 per pack with 20 packs to a box for ¥7,200.
