Pokémon full art trainer cards weren’t a thing when Pokémon cards initially released. Not only that, but trainer cards weren’t particularly valuable at all for the first 10+ years. There were a few incredibly rare promos like the Lucky Stadium, but they were few and far between.
In modern Pokémon cards though, Full Art trainers are highly sought after and collected. Believe it or not, there are some seriously valuable trainer cards that you or someone else may have picked up without knowing it.
This article then will cover the most valuable raw, English, Full Art Trainer Pokémon cards. Believe it or not, the English cards don’t hold a candle to the Japanese Full Art Trainers. We will cover those another time.
*Please note that this article was updated in June of 2025, so pricing may have changed since then.*
Let’s get to it!
#20 – Iris #101
Raw: ~$70 | PSA 10: ~$2,000
Coming in at #20 is Iris from the Plasma Blast set. Despite coming in at #20 in its raw value, it’s actually a top 3 in PSA 10 value on the list. The reason for that it that this Iris is one of the earliest full art releases on the list, coming out in 2013.
Because of its age, it is far harder to grade well. That is because it was released at a time that grading wasn’t nearly as popular as it is now, so there are less copies that are in Mint/Near Mint condition.
The good news is that Iris’s raw value has stayed relatively flat over the past few years. If you’re trying to make some money selling Pokémon cards, this might be a good one to find and try to grade for a 10!
#19 – Perrin #220
Raw: ~$90 | PSA 10: ~$185
Next on our list is Perrin #220 from the Twilight Masquerade set. This card is #2 in the set only behind the incredibly popular Greninja.
And while it’s PSA 10 value isn’t as impressive as our #20, it is an incredibly well done card with more of an aesthetic around the trainer rather than Pokémon itself.
It has trended up slightly since release as well. All the more reason to pick it up before it crosses $100.
#18 – Mallow & Lana #231
Raw: ~$90 | PSA 10: ~$200
At #18 is our first duo on the list, coming in the form of Mallow & Lana from the Cosmic Eclipse set. Not to spoil too much, but this will be one of many cards from Cosmic Eclipse. You’ll see what I mean as you scroll.
This card is one that has jumped in price over the last 6 months and looks to continue trending upwards. Why not pick up a 2 for 1 deal while you can?
#17 – Green’s Exploration #209
Raw: ~$90 | PSA 10: ~$250
Green’s Exploration was part of the Unbroken Bonds set, which has a number of incredibly cute Pokémon cards, including the one above. Despite the appearance though, this card has some incredible value despite only being released in 2019.
If you like this card or the set it comes from, then rejoice. There is more in store on this list shortly!
#16 – Red’s Challenge #213
Raw: ~$90 | PSA 10: ~$280
See? Didn’t have to wait long at all to get our second Unbroken Bonds Trainer card. This time in the form of Red’s Challenge.
In case you were wondering, the Unbroken Bonds set trainers are colors as a tribute to some of the original Pokémon games. What other reason do you need to pick some of them up?
#15 – N’s Resolve #232
Raw: ~$90 | PSA 10: ~$200
At the #15 most valuable Full Art Trainer card, we have N’s Resolve from the Cosmic Eclipse set. Take note that this is the second Cosmic Eclipse card on the list.
N’s Resolve was a unique card as its function – “Shuffle your hand into your deck. Then draw 3 cards. Your opponent shuffles their hand into their deck, then draws 4 cards.” – was seen as both a gamble and a way to disrupt the opponents deck.
This card has massively jumped in value from January 2025 where it was valued at $40. Better get it soon before it crosses the $100 mark!
#14 – Erika’s Hospitality #174
Raw: ~$100 | PSA 10: ~$260
Next up on the list is Erika’s hospitality from the incredibly popular Team Up set. Because of this card and a number of others (also on this list) the Team Up set is one of the most valuable Pokémon card sets ever released.
Erika’s Hospitality is one of many cards from the set that started and remained incredibly valuable upon release. If nothing else, the floral and leafy background makes for a great background in your binder!
#13 – Lusamine #153
Raw: ~$110 | PSA 10: ~$400
At #13 we have Lusamine from the Ultra Prism set. While it’s the first trainer from this particular set, it most certainly isn’t the last.
While this particular Lusamine card hasn’t increased in value like some of the others on this list, it has certainly had a steady increase in value since Jan 2023.
If you have it in your collection already, congrats! As of January 2025, it has crossed into the $100 card club!
#12 – Red & Blue #234
Raw: ~$115 | PSA 10: ~$325
Coming in at #12 is our second shared trainer card of the list. Red & Blue is our third Cosmic Eclipse card and is a standalone on this list for its more anime cartoon-like art. Yes, I do know that Pokémon is an anime, but I think you understand my point.
Unfortunately, there is only one other shared trainer art on this list. Hopefully though, Red and Blue and our #18 scratched that itch enough for now.
#11 – Lillie’s Full Force #230
Raw: ~$125 | PSA 10: ~$330
Tired of the Cosmic Eclipse set yet? Hopefully not. Lillie’s Full Force is the fourth and still not final card from it.
Cosmic Eclipse has a very dynamic set of art, and Lillie’s Full Force embraces the cuter and more magical side of that. The artwork, while not quite in the Top 25 Cutest Cards list, it is most certainly a contender.
Add in the fact that it’s a $125+ card and most would agree it’s worth having in any binder.
#10 – Sabrinas Suggestion #181
Raw: ~$130 | PSA 10: ~$450
Coming it at #10 is Sabrina’s Suggestion from the Team Up set. It is our second and final Full Art Trainer from the Team Up set that made the list. Don’t be too sad though, it shares some good company with the ridiculously popular Latias & Latios card.
If you are trying to get the master collection for this set, know that Sabrina’s Suggestion is just one of a number of other incredibly pricey cards you’ll have to pick up to complete it.
#9 – Skyla #149
Raw: ~$130 | PSA 10: ~$4,150
The Skyla #149 is an interesting card as it is currently the most valuable PSA 10 English Full Art Trainer card. Whew that was a mouthful.
While our #1 on the list has had higher sale values, it has dropped tremendously from it’s peak, leaving Skyla to take over the #1 spot.
In my humble opinion, Skyla will be a much better investment than our #1 card despite its lower raw value. It is from the Boundaries Crossed set which is the earliest released card on the list, coming out in 2012. On top of that, the #1 card has 1200+ PSA 10 copies in existence.
Skyla however? Only 19 PSA 10 copies. Talk about a rare find.
#8 – Cynthia & Caitlin #228
Raw: ~$140 | PSA 10: ~$370
Where our #12 and #18 contenders added the first dual trainer cards, Cynthia & Caitlin take the cake on value. And yet again, this card is from… *dramatic pause*… the Cosmic Eclipse set.
While the number of male vs female cards on the list have been close, Cynthia & Caitlin separate the girls from the boys by a good bit of margin. This dynamic duo also adds a nice counterbalance with Cynthia sporting all black while Caitlin dons a much fancier pink coat and hat.
In case you had any hesitation, yes, this would look great in a binder.
#7 – N #105a
Raw: ~$150 | PSA 10: ~$300
At #7, we have N #105a. The N #105a card is from the Fates Collide set which was released in 2016. This makes N one of the earliest released cards on the list.
While not from the coveted E Reader sets, it does sport the lines along the edge like some from those sets. On top of that, N has taken a massive jump in value from from January 2025 to May of 2025. It has increased 3x, from about $50 to $150 in that short period of time.
Better grab it before it goes up any higher!
#6 – Cynthia #SV82
Raw: ~$160 | PSA 10: ~$300
Where Cynthia shared some space in our #8 spot, she wanted to trade out her partner with a Lucario and Garchomp in the #5 spot. Can’t argue with that logic.
This Cynthia #SV82 is from the Hidden Fates set, released in 2019. Like the #7 spot above, this card has absolutely shot up in value from January 2025, going from an $80 card to a $150+ card.
How much higher will this card climb?
#5 – Bianca #147
Raw: ~$180 | PSA 10: ~$2,500
Where Skyla took some of the glory of being the most expensive PSA 10 on the list, it does have company. Bianca #147 from the Boundaries Crossed set wins in raw value and comes in at #2 in PSA 10 value on the list.
Where Skyla has 19 PSA copies in existence, Bianca is incredibly close at only 22. And being from the same set means it also shares in its 2012 release date, making this number harder to increase.
At this point then, you may have to just pick them both up. Good luck on your PSA 10 hunt.
#4 -Cynthia #148
Raw: ~$215 | PSA 10: ~$795
Alright now Cynthia is just being greedy. She has abandoned all people and Pokémon to take the space for herself. Unlike the others though, the Cynthia #148 is from the Ultra Prism set.
In case you were wondering, this card yet again has massively increased its value from January 2025. In May 2025, the Cynthia #148 crossed into a average $200+ card for the first time.
#3 -Rosa #236
Raw: ~$230| PSA 10: ~$510
Coming in at #3 is our final and most expensive Cosmic Eclipse Trainer Card, Rosa #236. Rosa is both incredibly rare and incredibly useful in Pokémon gameplay, making it a valuable card since its release.
While this Rosa card didn’t see the massive spike that others did in January 2025, it has still remained incredibly valuable, even since early 2021.
If you’ve got $200+ burning a hole in your pocket, why not add Rosa to the collection?
#2 – Misty’s Favor #235
Raw: ~$240 | PSA 10: ~$925
Where other cards on this list go for a more intense and battle-focused look, Misty’s Favor #235… does not. Despite that being the case, Misty’s Favor had a cult-like following upon release and has remained unbelievably popular.
Misty’s Favor has also seen a large increase in value since January 2025, and has only very slightly ever gone down in value upon release. What other reason do you need to pick this one up?
#1 – Lillie #151
Raw: ~$405 | PSA 10: ~$1,750
The most expensive raw Full Art English Trainer card is the Lillie #151. And it’s not even close.
While Lillie #151 is part of the Ultra Prism set like others on this list, it has completely separated itself in value. This is partially due to the artwork and general popularity of the character. More so though is the fact that the Ultra Prism set was a limited run and Lillie was the rarest card from the set.
Interestingly, the Lillie #151 card has fluctuated significantly, from a low point of $170 all the way up to $475 in July of 2023. With the rarity and popularity of this card though, it doesn’t seem like it will ever be a bad card to have in the collection.
Summary
There has been a massive increase in popularity and pricing for a number of Full Art Pokémon Trainer cards. The top 20 most expensive though fall mostly to the Ultra Prism, Team Up, Unbroken Bonds, and Cosmic Eclipse sets, most of which were released on or around 2019.
Interestingly, this English trainer list doesn’t hold a candle to the Japanese Full Art Trainer list. Hopefully your wallet is ready to pick up some more.
