Professor’s Research 240/198 SV01 Ultra Rare Full Art Holo Trainer English NM
Price: $10.00
Professor’s Research from the SV Black Star Promos, numbered SV01, hits as a promo rarity in raw condition. This one’s the ultra full art holo version, English print, clocking in at 240/198 for its core set tie-in. The artwork shows Professor Sada in a dynamic pose, lab coat flowing, with that Scarlet & Violet vibe of ancient tech and Pokémon energy swirling around. The holo foil spreads across the whole card, giving it a subtle shimmer that picks up light from different angles without overwhelming the details.
As a Supporter Trainer card, it’s straightforward: no HP since it’s not a Pokémon, but the effect lets you discard your hand and draw seven cards. That’s the meat of it—classic draw power for deck cycling, no fancy Ability, just that one big play to refresh your options mid-game. You play it during your turn and bam, hand reset.
This promo dropped in 2023 as part of the Scarlet & Violet launch wave, tied to the base set but released through special kits or events. Raw copies often come with decent card stock, though you might spot minor centering shifts on the borders—SV promos aren’t always laser-perfect like main set pulls. The printing quality holds up, with clean ink on the full art background that avoids the pixelation you see in some older holos.
In raw shape, check those corners first; they can ding easily if not sleeved right away, but a clean one stays sharp without whitening. Edges might show faint wear from pack opening, nothing major unless it’s been shuffled bare. The surface is smooth, resistant to scratches, and that holo flash adds a nice pop when you tilt it, highlighting Sada’s determined expression. Centering’s usually solid at around 60/40 or better on these promos, making them fun to inspect under light for any quirks.
Sleeve it up for your binder or let it ride solo in a top loader—either way, it’s ready for the table.
