WF Serperior ex, from the Wild Force set, clocks in as a Special Illustration Rare in raw condition. This one’s got that full-art vibe with Serperior coiled up in a lush forest scene, vines twisting everywhere like it’s about to unleash some serious overgrowth. The holo pattern shimmers across the foliage, picking up light in a way that makes the greens pop without overwhelming the details.
On the card text side, it’s a Grass-type Pokémon ex with 310 HP. The Ability is Royal Tornado, letting you shift up to 3 Energy cards from your Pokémon to others however you like once per turn—handy for setting up big plays. Then there’s the attack, Grand Vine, dishing out 250 damage but requiring you to discard 2 Energy from this Pokémon afterward. Solid for a late-game closer if you’re running a Grass deck heavy on energy acceleration.
Wild Force dropped in early 2024 as part of the Scarlet & Violet block in Japan, pulling from the Paradox Pokémon theme with a mix of ancient and future vibes. These sets often come on thicker card stock, which holds up well, but raw copies can show minor centering shifts—think 60/40 splits on the borders sometimes, though this one’s sitting pretty even. Print runs were decent, so you see them floating around, but the special illustration pulls make them stand out from the standard ex versions.
For raw condition, edges are clean with no major whitening, just the faint factory texture you expect from Japanese prints. Corners stay sharp, no dings or bends creeping in, and the surface is smooth without scratches—holo flash is intact, giving that subtle depth to the artwork. Centering looks balanced, maybe a hair off on the bottom but nothing distracting.
Sleeve it up for your binder or let it chill in a top loader—either way, it’s ready for the table.
