Card number 141/103 reissues one of the earliest “Shining” secret rares — a notable innovation that restricted deckbuilding to no more than 1 Shining Celebi per deck, per Bulbapedia — inside the 30-card Classic Collection block of 30th CELEBRATION (M6a), the flagship Japanese set marking the Pokemon Trading Card Game’s 30th anniversary.
This guide covers what 141/103 actually is, what the original Neo Destiny card it reprints does and why the Shining mechanic mattered, what comparable graded Celebi prints are listed on our site today, and how to buy toward the 16 September 2026 release. We ship Japanese sealed product and singles out of Tokyo, so every current price below is our own live listing.
Shining Celebi 141/103 is a Classic Collection reprint — sparkling holofoil, gold-border treatment, marked “C”, not Standard-legal — of the Neo Destiny Shining Celebi illustrated by Hironobu Yoshida, one of the cards that introduced the “Shining Pokemon” secret-rare mechanic in 2002. For a graded Celebi card you can buy today, our PSA10 Celebi: Old Back PRMF-3 No.251 is currently listed.
What the 141/103 Shining Celebi Reprint Actually Is
30th CELEBRATION (M6a) releases worldwide on Wednesday 16 September 2026 at ¥360 per six-card foil pack, or ¥7,200 for a 20-pack box. The official card list, published 9 September 2026, covers the main set 001–103, the Classic Collection 136–165 and the eight Basic Energy in the official card database; the AR/SAR/FUR secret-rare block 104–135 is compiled from official images and PokeBeach’s list and is not yet in the official database. Shining Celebi 141/103 sits in the Classic Collection: 30 cards, numbered 136–165, described by PokeBeach as carrying a special sparkling holofoil and gold-border treatment and a “C” mark beside the M6a set code. None of the Classic Collection is usable under current Standard rules; each card remains legal only in whatever format its original printing is legal in.

The official card database lists 141/103 with the Japanese name ひかるセレビィ (Hikaru Celebi, localised as Shining Celebi) and illustrator Hironobu Yoshida — the same artist credited on the original, confirmed below. A second official image comes from the card database entry itself:

The Original Neo Destiny Card
Per Limitless TCG, the card being reissued is Shining Celebi from the English Neo Destiny set, #106/105 — numbered above the set’s own stated total of 105 cards, which is how Shining-era secret rares were marked. Neo Destiny released in English in February 2002; Bulbapedia’s fetched summary gave an inconsistent “1999–2000” range for this card, which conflicts with the set’s known release date, so we’re flagging that Bulbapedia year text as unreliable and going with Neo Destiny’s actual 2002 English release instead. Compiled English checklist sites (Bill’s Archive, thornberrymedia) independently list the same original printing for Classic Collection slot 141/103, and both flag it as a “reported” pick — The Pokemon Company has not published a formal checklist for the Classic Collection, and only Charizard and Pikachu & Zekrom-GX among the 30 are TPC-confirmed. Bulbapedia separately gives a Japanese original of the “Darkness, and to Light…” set, card #106; that single-source detail is unverified beyond Bulbapedia.
| Field | Original Neo Destiny print (per Limitless) |
|---|---|
| HP / Type / Stage | 50 HP, Grass, Basic |
| Attack — Healing Water | Cost 1 Water. Removes damage counters from 1 of your Benched Pokemon equal to the Water Energy attached to it. |
| Attack — Miracle Leaf | Cost 1 Grass + 1 Psychic. 10 damage; flips coins based on the Defending Pokemon’s attached Energy to potentially apply a Special 状态. |
| Weakness / Resistance / Retreat | Fire / None / 1 |
| Rarity | Shining Holo / Secret Rare, numbered above the set’s stated total (105) |
Per Bulbapedia, this card exemplifies the “Shining Pokemon” mechanic introduced in the Neo Destiny era — a notable TCG innovation that restricted deckbuilding, with players allowed “no more than 1 Shining Celebi in your deck.” At a time when most cards had no such limit, that was a genuinely new rule for the game.
Why This Celebi Made the Classic Collection
The sourced context here is limited, and we’re not going beyond what the facts actually support. What is confirmed: Shining Celebi’s illustrator credit on 141/103 is Hironobu Yoshida, matching his credit on the original Neo Destiny #106 exactly — one of the clearer illustrator-continuity matches among the nine Classic Collection reprints we’ve cross-checked against Limitless and Bulbapedia. The Shining Pokemon mechanic is a notable innovation: no more than 1 Shining Celebi per deck, per Bulbapedia, which gives 141/103 a defensible claim to representing a real turning point in the TCG’s history.
Beyond that, we don’t have a sourced statement from Pokemon or PokeBeach explaining the card-by-card selection logic, so we’re not inventing one. See our full 30th Anniversary reprints list for the complete 136–165 range, including the other early-era secret rares reprinted alongside 141/103.
What Comparable Graded Celebi Prints Are Worth Today
No PSA10 copy of the exact Neo Destiny Shining Celebi is currently listed in our stock, and we’re not going to imply one is. What we do carry is a wide PSA10 Celebi selection spanning other printings — different cards, different eras, useful only as a sense of where graded Celebi demand sits generally, not as a stand-in for 141/103 itself:
That second listing shares the “Shining Celebi” name but is a different, much later printing — a later Shining Legends printing (SM3+ 004/072), not the Neo Destiny original researched above. For the original era specifically, the closest live comparison is on SNKRDUNK: as of 11 September 2026, the lowest asking price for a Japanese old-back Celebi listing from “Pokemon Card neo” 扩展包, “Darkness, and to Light…” — the Japanese Neo Destiny-era release contemporaneous with the English original researched above — is ¥179,980, across 10 listings. Separately, that later Shining Legends printing (SM3+ 004/072) asks as low as ¥8,580 across 29 listings on SNKRDUNK — useful only as a reminder that “Shining Celebi” spans multiple, very differently priced cards. Both figures are marketplace asks, not sales, and not PSA10 figures.

常见问题
What is the Shining Celebi 141/103 reprint in 30th Celebration?
It’s the Neo Destiny Shining Celebi, #106/105, reissued in a special sparkling holofoil, gold-border treatment as part of the 30-card Classic Collection inside M6a, which releases worldwide on 16 September 2026. It is marked “C” and is not Standard-legal.
Who illustrated the original Shining Celebi that 141/103 reprints?
Hironobu Yoshida, per Limitless TCG’s Neo Destiny #106 listing. The 30th Celebration reprint 141/103 is credited to the same illustrator, Hironobu Yoshida, in the official card database — the artist credit matches.
What does the original Shining Celebi card do?
A 50 HP Grass-type Basic with Healing Water (1 Water, removes damage counters from a Benched Pokemon equal to its attached Water Energy) and Miracle Leaf (1 Grass + 1 Psychic, 10 damage plus a chance to apply a Special 状态 based on the Defending Pokemon’s attached Energy), per Limitless TCG’s transcription of Neo Destiny #106.
What was special about the “Shining Pokemon” mechanic?
Shining Celebi was a secret rare numbered above Neo Destiny’s stated total of 105, and players were allowed no more than 1 Shining Celebi in a deck (per Bulbapedia) — a new deckbuilding restriction at the time.
Is Shining Celebi 141/103 tournament legal?
No. Classic Collection cards in M6a are not usable under current Standard rules; they remain legal only in whatever format their original printing is legal in.
Can I buy a graded PSA10 copy of the exact Neo Destiny Shining Celebi from Samurai Sword Tokyo?
Not at the time of writing — that specific printing isn’t currently in our PSA10 stock. We do carry other graded Celebi printings, including an old-back PRMF-3 Celebi and a later Shining Legends “Shining Celebi H” reprint; sourcing requests for a specific print go through Quick Order.
