Collecting Ekans
Ekans keeps things simple: 17 cards across 16 sets, every single one common or uncommon, and only 3 clearing $20. The chase card, a 2002 Expedition Base Set Common, confirms there's no hidden premium tier here. It debuted in 1999's Fossil set rather than Base, and Ken Sugimori drew three of the seventeen — the most of any artist.
