Pokemon 2025 Hops Zacian EX Full Art Sir Journey Together Card 186/159
Price: $32.00
Zacian EX from the Journey Together set, card number 186/159, clocks in as a secret rare with that full art flair showing Hop teaming up with the legendary doggo. We’re talking a clean raw copy here, no major dings fresh out of a pack pull.
The artwork pops with Zacian mid-leap, sword in mouth, while Hop stands ready in the background— the holo foil spreads across the whole card, catching light in a way that makes it shimmer without overwhelming the details.
On the text side, it’s a Basic Steel-type Pokémon ex with 220 HP. Its Ability, Brave Blade, lets you search your deck for a Metal Energy and attach it once per turn, setting up for big swings. The main attack, Photon Slash, dishes out 150 damage and prevents all effects of attacks on this Pokémon during your opponent’s next turn if you have more Prize cards left. Weak to Fire, resists Grass, and a retreat cost of two—standard legendary setup.
This one dropped in 2023 as part of the Scarlet & Violet era expansions, pulling from Japanese prints where centering can be hit or miss on secret rares. Journey Together focused on trainer-Pokémon bonds, so these full arts often have thicker card stock that holds up well, but watch for factory edge whitening on raw pulls. Common quirk: the holo pattern sometimes shows minor scratches from pack friction, though this copy dodged that.
Diving into condition, corners are sharp with no whitening or bends, edges smooth without chips or dents that plague overhandled cards. Surface is pristine, no scratches or print lines marring the foil, and that holo flash is even across the art—centers nicely at about 60/40 top-bottom, 50/50 sides, nothing to nitpick for a raw gem. Back’s clean too, no residue or fading on the blue swirl.
Might want to double-sleeve this one before it sees any tabletop action, or just admire it in a binder page.
