Gengar VMAX #020/019 from the Japanese High Class Deck rolls in as a full art powerhouse, sitting pretty in raw condition with that classic holo sheen intact. The artwork pops with Gengar lurking in shadows, tentacles swirling around like it’s plotting its next haunt, and the full art borderless style lets the purple glow spill everywhere without edges cramping the vibe.
On the card text side, it’s a Psychic-type VMAX with 320 HP, evolving from Gengar V. The Ability is Creeping Pain—once per turn, you can put 3 damage counters on one of your opponent’s Pokémon if it’s got damage already, stacking the hurt without even attacking. Then there’s the attack, G-Max Swallow for three Psychic energy: it does 200 damage and heals your Active Pokémon by that amount, basically sucking the life out of foes while patching up your side. Retreat cost is two, nothing too heavy for a tank like this.
This one’s from the 2021 High Class Deck Gengar VMAX release in Japan, a premium deck product that came loaded with holos and full arts, often pulling from the Sword & Shield era vibes. Raw copies from these decks tend to have solid print quality, but watch for those slight centering shifts on the holo foil—Japanese cards like this usually hold up better than mass-pack pulls, with thicker stock that resists curling if stored right. Edges might show minor whitening from deck shuffling, but clean ones feel crisp.
Diving into raw details, the corners on this copy stay sharp, no dings or bends throwing off the symmetry. Edges run smooth with just faint wear from handling, nothing that screams abuse. Surface is clean, free of scratches or whitening spots that plague holos, and the foil flash dances under light without haze or clouding—it’s got that deep, inky depth on the shadows. Centering looks about 60/40 on the borders, typical for these decks, keeping the art balanced enough for a raw display.
Sleeve it up for your binder or let it chill in a top loader—ghosts like options.
