Market outlook
Stable Outlook 4/10
The card’s price appears anchored by modest collector demand and broad availability, with mild upside from grade scarcity and set completion interest.
Next months. Likely to remain near current low-dollar ungraded pricing, with graded mint copies holding the strongest premium.
Long term. Could see gradual appreciation if the set becomes harder to find sealed, but major growth is unlikely unless Togedemaru gains renewed popularity or the card becomes notably scarce in high grade.
History
Togedemaru is a Generation VII Pokémon introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon. It is an Electric/Steel-type, inspired by a hedgehog and known for its round body, spiky fur, and electrical storage sacs; in the franchise it is often depicted as small, defensive, and capable of discharging stored electricity.
This English card was first released in Phantasmal Flames (set code ME02 / ME02: Phantasmal Flames) on November 14, 2025, as card 104/094, an Illustration Rare / full-art style secret-numbered print.
- This card appears in the secret-number range 104/094 despite being labeled Illustration Rare rather than a standard set-chronology rarity.
- The English printing is associated with artist Orca.
- A regular Togedemaru printing also exists in the same Phantasmal Flames expansion, making this the premium collectible version of the same Pokémon.

Collector notes
Condition. Check for whitening on corners and edges, centering, surface scuffs on the holofoil, print lines, and any full-art style texture wear. Secret-rare full-art cards often show factory nicks or edge whitening more clearly than regular cards.
Storage. Store in a penny sleeve and rigid top loader or semi-rigid holder immediately after inspection. Keep away from humidity, direct light, and heat; for graded-worthy copies, avoid repeated handling and use clean gloves only if needed.
Authenticity. Verify exact card number 104/094, correct set name, and English text quality. Compare holofoil texture, font spacing, and energy symbols against a known authentic copy; fake cards often have flat foiling, incorrect texture, or off-center borders. Check that the card’s surface and numbering match the Illustration Rare full-art style rather than a standard regular-print version.
