Collecting Sceptile

Sceptile closes out the Treecko line at a premium, only one of its 25 cards is a common or uncommon, and 13 sit above $20. The Sceptile ex from 2004's Team Magma vs Team Aqua is the top pull, and a Mega Sceptile adds a modern chapter to a run that's spanned just 15 sets since 2003, a tighter spread than most three-stage lines this size.
