Giratina V from Lost Origin, card #186/196, Ultra Rare Alternate Art version, slabbed PSA 10. This one’s the Italian printing, which adds a twist for collectors who dig foreign language variants.
That artwork though—Giratina looming in a swirling void, all distorted and menacing with those red accents popping against the dark background. The pose captures that otherworldly vibe, like it’s ripping through dimensions.
On the card text: Dragon type, 220 HP. Attacks include Shred for 80 damage with two colorless energy—ignores all effects on the opponent’s Active Pokémon. Then there’s Lost Impact for 280 damage using Psychic, Grass, and Lightning energy, but you have to put two energy from this Pokémon into the Lost Zone. No Ability here, just straight-up power moves that tie into the Lost Zone mechanic.
Lost Origin dropped in 2022 as part of the Sword & Shield era, pulling from the Japanese Lost Abyss set. What stands out about this printing is the Alternate Art treatment—it’s not your standard full art; instead, it’s this epic, almost surreal illustration by 5ban Graphics that emphasizes Giratina’s lore as the Renegade Pokémon. The set focused on the Lost Zone, with Giratina as a flagship card, and the Italian version means it’s from the international release, often with subtler print differences that appeal to variant hunters. Compared to English prints, these foreign ones can feel a bit more unique in a collection, especially since Lost Origin wrapped up some key themes before Scarlet & Violet kicked off.
For the slab: PSA 10 means pristine corners, edges, surface, and that centering hits the mark—probably 9.5 or better subgrades all around. Eye appeal is strong with the holo shine on those void effects, no whitening or print lines marring it. Pop reports show Italian versions have lower numbers overall; from what I’ve seen, total PSA 10s for this Alt Art in Italian sit around 200-300, way scarcer than English counterparts.
I’d keep this one in a display case, maybe next to other Distortion World pulls, just to admire how it warps the shelf.
