Cynthia’s Ambition 169/172 Full Art Trainer Brilliant Stars Pokémon

Price: $12.99

Cynthia’s Ambition 169/172 from Brilliant Stars, full art trainer in raw ungraded condition. This one’s a supporter card showing Cynthia standing tall with her Garchomp and Lucario in a dynamic pose, the full art spreading across the whole card with that subtle holo sheen on the borders. You draw until you have five cards in hand, but if any of your Pokémon got knocked out last turn by the opponent, bump it up to eight instead. No HP or type here since it’s a trainer, just pure draw power for those clutch moments in a game.

Brilliant Stars dropped back in 2022 as part of the Sword & Shield era, packing in VSTAR mechanics and a mix of classic and new Pokémon. These full art trainers from the set often come with decent print quality, though raw copies sometimes show up with minor centering shifts—nothing too wild, but check the borders if you’re picky. The card stock feels solid, not as prone to whitening as some older sets, and the holo pattern adds a nice subtle glow without overwhelming the artwork.

In terms of raw condition, this copy looks clean overall. Corners are sharp with no dings or bends, edges show minimal wear, just the faint factory texture you expect on these. Surface is smooth, free of scratches or print lines, and the holo flash pops under light without any clouding or foil scratches. Centering sits around 60/40 top to bottom, pretty standard for the print run, and the back is crisp with no marks. It’s one of those cards that feels fresh out of the pack, ready for a binder or a deck build.

Sleeve it up for your next league night or let it chill in a top loader—either way, it’s got that trainer vibe.
