Overview

Legends Awakened, released August 20, 2008, is the largest Diamond & Pearl expansion with 146 cards. It features a massive roster of legendary and mythical Pokemon, including Mewtwo, Regigigas, and the Lake Trio (Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf). The set was a major milestone for competitive play with cards like Uxie becoming format staples.

Best for

Gen IV collectors sorting reverse holos and early modern chases
collectors pricing Legends Awakened (2008, 146 cards) as DP / Platinum era cardboard — not as generic “old cards”
people building around Mewtwo LV.X / Regigigas LV.X without pretending bulk pays the same

Skip this path if

you buy mixed “DP era” binders without sorting by set
you expect every card in Legends Awakened to carry similar resale (bulk is bulk)

Common mistakes

If you only remember one thing about Legends Awakened: Mewtwo LV.X / Regigigas LV.X is not interchangeable with every other print of those Pokemon. People still get burned by lumping every Diamond & Pearl–era set under one “DP” price sheet, then argue condition after they already overpaid. Confirm dp6 / the set symbol before comps — “DP / Platinum era lot” language is how wrong products get mixed.

What to check first

Verify set membership (dp6) and set symbol first — DP-era names get mangled in lots constantly. Condition pass on Mewtwo LV.X / Regigigas LV.X before negotiation. Finish with a checklist gap list so you are not “completing” only the bulk.

Most valuable cards

Mewtwo LV.X (#144) is the marquee chase card and one of the most iconic DP-era LV.X cards. Regigigas LV.X (#146) and Gliscor LV.X (#141) are also premium pulls. Uxie (#43) became the most important draw engine in the format, and even as a non-holo rare, clean copies hold value.

Tips to finish the set

Step by step

How to Complete This Set

01

Identify Legends Awakened cards by set code dp6 / symbol — do not sort by art alone
02

Split bulk commons/uncommons from holos and special rarities before pricing
03

Track Mewtwo LV.X and Regigigas LV.X as priority singles, not pack EV fantasies
04

Scan or checklist-gap the rest after the chase budget is honest

Scan with the app

Pokex helps navigate this large set by instantly identifying cards and their set numbers. The scanner is especially useful for distinguishing the many holographic rares and verifying condition on high-value LV.X cards like Mewtwo.

02 What is Mewtwo LV.X worth from Legends Awakened?

Mewtwo LV.X (#144) typically sells for $40–$100 in near-mint condition. As one of the most recognizable Pokemon, graded PSA 10 copies can sell for $250+.

03 How many cards are in Legends Awakened?

Legends Awakened contains 146 cards, making it the largest DP-era expansion. It includes 4 LV.X cards, numerous holographic rares, and a wide range of legendary and mythical Pokemon.

04 Is Legends Awakened hard to complete?

It is one of the more challenging DP sets to complete due to its size (146 cards) and the number of desirable rares. However, commons and uncommons are cheap, so the real challenge is the holos and LV.X cards.
