Pokemon – Skyla – 072/072 – SWSH Shining Fates – Full Art Trainer Card
Price: $17.25
Skyla from Shining Fates, that’s the full art trainer card sitting at 072/072, ultra rare pull in raw near mint condition. You know, the kind of card that shows up in a pack and makes you double-take because it’s not your usual Pokémon—it’s all about that supporter vibe. The artwork has Skyla looking confident up there in her pilot gear, with those swirling winds and a vast sky backdrop that pulls you right into the scene, no holo foil on this one since it’s a trainer, but the full art print gives it that glossy pop under the lights.
As for what it does, it’s a supporter card—play it during your turn to search your deck for any trainer card, reveal it to your opponent, and add it straight to your hand. Then shuffle up the deck. Simple, effective, especially if you’re digging for that one item or stadium to turn the game around. No HP here, no attacks or abilities like a Pokémon would have; it’s pure utility for deck searching, which fits Skyla’s theme as the Mistralton City gym leader who’s all about flying types and quick maneuvers.
This came out in the Shining Fates set back in 2021, part of the Sword & Shield era, and it was a special release with a ton of shiny Pokémon, but trainers like this one added some variety. Printing-wise, these full arts from Shining Fates often had decent card stock, though you might spot minor centering shifts on the borders—nothing wild, but raw copies can show a bit of off-centering on the artwork frame if you’re picky. Edges tend to hold up well without much whitening straight from the pack, and the surface is smooth with that premium feel.
In raw shape, let’s talk condition: corners are sharp, no dings or bends that I can see, edges clean without the usual factory wear, surface free of scratches or print defects, and the full art really shines with vibrant colors that don’t fade easy. It’s one of those cards that feels solid in hand, ready for a deck or display.
Might as well proxy it in a casual game to see how that search plays out—keeps things interesting.
