Mightyena · Ascended Heroes, what to know.
About the Mightyena card
Mightyena is card 243 of 250 in Ascended Heroes, released in April 2026, an Illustration Rare. It is a Stage 1 Darkness-type with 120 HP.
As a Stage 1, it evolves from Poochyena, which places Mightyena deeper in its line and means most collectors hold it alongside the cards it evolves from.

The card's flavor text gives Mightyena a line of lore: "It will always obey the commands of a skilled Trainer. Its behavior arises from its living in packs in ancient times."
What is Mightyena worth?
Mightyena is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Ascended Heroes's value. The rarity tier decides most of it, since the same card prints at several tiers with very different prices. In top-grade 1st Edition, Ascended Heroes holos range from the mid hundreds for the lesser cards up to the set's marquee chase; raw and Unlimited copies trade for a fraction of that. The live market price above shows the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Mightyena before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
For graded buyers, the holo window on Mightyena is where most points are won or lost. Surface scratches and foil misregistration are common on these cards, and centering was inconsistent enough that clean PSA 10s stay scarce. Read the darkness foil at a 45-degree angle under strong light before committing.
If you are collecting Mightyena
Buying Mightyena well means pricing the exact print and grade, not the card name. Match the rarity tier to the comp before you buy. Always see the holo surface in good light first.
