Pokémon Origin Forme Palkia V Full Art Holo 167/189 Astral Radiance 220 HP
Price: $65.00
Palkia V from Astral Radiance, card number 167/189, hits as an ultra rare full art holo in raw condition. This one’s the Origin Forme version, all sleek and cosmic with that water dragon vibe twisting through space. The artwork pops with Palkia ripping open a rift, holo foil shimmering like ripples on a pond under shop lights, catching every angle without overwhelming the details.
On the card text side, it’s a Water type basic Pokémon V with 220 HP. Ability is Subspace Swell, beefing up damage based on your opponent’s bench size—handy for those swarmy decks. Attacks include Rule the Region for some setup draw, and Hydro Break dishing 200 damage but skipping your next turn. Solid for competitive play if you’re into VSTAR evos or straight V builds.
Astral Radiance dropped in 2022 as part of the Sword & Shield era, pulling from the Japanese Star Birth set. Raw copies often show up with decent centering, but watch for that common holo bleed on edges from the printing run—nothing too wild, though some packs had thicker card stock that holds up better against bends. It’s one of those sets where the full arts like this Palkia V stand out for their radiant holo patterns, mixing galaxy swirls with the Pokémon’s pose.
For raw condition, this copy’s corners are sharp, no dings or whitening that’d scream handling abuse. Edges look clean, minimal silvering even after a few shuffles in a sleeve. Surface is smooth, free of scratches or print lines that plague some holos, and the foil flash is even, no weird bubbling or haze spots. Centering’s about 60/40 on the borders, typical for the set without being off-putting. Overall, it’s a solid raw pull that’d display nicely in a binder.
Sleeve it up for your deck or let it chill in a top loader—whatever floats your boat.
