Price: $7,000.00
Giratina V from Lost Origin, card number 186/196, Alternate Art Ultra Rare, sitting in a CGC Pristine 10. This one’s got that blue label glow, fresh out of the slab.
The artwork pulls you right into the Distortion World—Giratina in its Origin Forme, all shadowy tendrils and glowing red eyes against a warped, ethereal backdrop. That pose hits hard, like it’s about to drag everything into oblivion.
On the card text side, it’s a Dragon type with 220 HP. No Ability here, but attacks keep it simple and brutal: Shred for 60 damage that punches through effects on the Defending Pokémon, and Lost Impact dishing out a massive 280 while dumping two Energy from your hand into the Lost Zone. As a V Pokémon, it sets up for the VSTAR evolution if you’re building around it. Pairs well with Lost Zone strategies, recycling those Energies for big swings.
Lost Origin dropped in 2022 as part of the Sword & Shield era, wrapping up that block with a bang. This printing stands out because it’s the Alternate Art version, ditching the standard look for something more immersive and thematic. The set leaned heavy into Giratina lore, tying into the Distortion World and those creepy Lost Zone mechanics that mess with your discard pile. Not your everyday chase card, but it captures that mythical renegade vibe from the Sinnoh region remakes. Collectors dig how it echoes the Platinum games, where Giratina was the star of its own twisted realm.
For the slab, CGC nailed a Pristine 10, which means subgrades likely all 10s across centering, corners, edges, and surface. Eye appeal is off the charts with those vibrant colors popping under the label—no print lines or haze to worry about. Pop reports show these Alt Arts aren’t flooding the market; I’d guess under 200 in CGC 10, but that’s from what I’ve seen floating around shops and forums. Clean edges make it a display piece without distractions.
I’d frame this one next to my Distortion World playset, just to feel that alternate reality pull every time I walk by.
