Iono’s Special Illustration Rare from Paldea Evolved, numbered 269/193, hits as a full art trainer with that shiny holo treatment. We’re talking raw condition here, straight from a fresh pack pull, no grading slab in sight. The artwork pops with Iono in her electric gym leader vibe, all energetic pose against a stormy backdrop, and the holo catches light like crazy, giving it that subtle sparkle when you tilt it just right.
As a Supporter card, it doesn’t have HP, but the effect shakes things up: both players shuffle their hands to the bottom of their decks, then draw cards equal to their remaining Prize cards if any got shuffled away. It’s a game-changer for resetting bad hands or messing with your opponent’s setup, simple but sneaky in competitive play. No attacks or abilities beyond that core rule text, illustrated by the talented Naoki Saito, who nailed the dynamic feel.
This one’s from the 2023 Paldea Evolved set, part of the Scarlet & Violet era, where full arts like this started showing up more with those vibrant borders and extended illustrations. Raw copies often deal with centering quirks—I’ve seen plenty where the borders sit a tad off, maybe 60/40 on the sides, but the card stock holds up well, thick enough to avoid easy bends. Printing runs were solid, so you get that consistent foil pattern without too much variance.
In terms of raw details, corners come sharp with no whitening, edges clean and free of dings from shuffling mishaps. The surface stays smooth, no scratches or print lines marring the art, and that holo flash remains vibrant, not dulled by any handling marks. It’s the kind of copy you’d pull and immediately double-sleeve to keep it pristine. Sleeve it quick or send it to grading—your call.
