Price: $179.99
Galarian Rapidash V 168/198 from Chilling Reign, the alternate art version, sitting pretty in a PSA 10 slab. This one’s got that ethereal vibe with the pony galloping through a misty forest, all glowing and majestic like it’s straight out of a fairy tale illustration. The colors pop soft pinks and blues against the dark backdrop, making it one of those cards you just stare at for a minute.
On the text side, it’s a Psychic-type with 210 HP. Ability is Pastel Veil, which keeps your team safe from poison and burn conditions—handy in a pinch during battles. Then there’s the attack, Psychic, dealing 60 plus 30 more for each Energy on the opponent’s Active Pokémon. Solid setup for mind games, if you’re into competitive play or just theorycrafting decks.
Chilling Reign dropped back in 2021 as part of the Sword & Shield series, pulling from the Crown Tundra expansion in the games. What makes this printing stand out is the alt art treatment; instead of the standard full art, you get this dreamy, almost watercolor scene that captures Galarian Rapidash’s graceful, unicorn-like redesign from the Galar region. It’s not your typical fiery Rapidash—more psychic and serene, fitting the set’s icy, mysterious theme with all those Calyrex and legendary birds floating around.
For the slab, PSA 10 means gem mint all around: sharp corners, clean edges, and that centering usually clocks in at 9.5 or better on subs. Eye appeal is high here because the artwork takes up the whole card without borders, so any tiny flaw would show, but this one’s flawless. Pop reports show around 300 PSA 10s out there last I checked, which isn’t flooding the scene but keeps it accessible for collectors who dig the aesthetic.
I’d frame this one next to my coffee setup, just to start the day with that calm energy.
