Pokemon Celebrations Umbreon Gold Star Classic Collection Series 17, PSA 10
Price: $450.00
Umbreon Gold Star from the Celebrations set, an ultra rare holo, locked in a PSA 10 slab. This one’s a reprint of the classic Gold Star version, card 17 in the Classic Collection subset.
That artwork nails it—Umbreon lurking in the shadows with those piercing red eyes and a starry glow around the gold star symbol. Simple but intense, like it’s about to vanish into the night.
On the text side, it’s a Darkness-type with 70 HP. Poké-Body is Dark Ray, which lets you discard an Energy from your opponent’s Pokémon after doing 50 damage. Then there’s Feint Attack for 30, hitting any foe without weakness or resistance applying. Solid moves for a sneaky playstyle.
Celebrations dropped in 2021 as part of Pokémon’s 25th anniversary bash, pulling in reprints from old sets like POP Series 5 where this Umbreon first shone. What stands out here is how it captures that early 2000s promo vibe but with modern printing quality—crisp edges, vibrant colors, no weird holo bleed like some originals had. It’s a nod to the Gold Star era without the hunt for beat-up promos.
In the slab, this PSA 10 means flawless centering, probably dead-on 10/10 across the board, with eye appeal that pops under light—the gold star really sparkles without any haze or scratches. Edges are sharp, corners pristine, surface clean as a whistle. Pop reports show around 1,200 or so in PSA 10 last I checked, but that’s from a set that flooded the market, so it’s not impossibly rare, just tough to hit perfection on these holos.
I’d stash this one in a display case next to other Eeveelutions, maybe rotate it with the lights on to catch that foil gleam.
