Iono's Bellibolt ex - 125/100 - SV9: Battle Partners (SV9) Japanese Pokemon

The Iono's Bellibolt ex — #125/100 — Special Art Rare (SAR) is the crown jewel pull from SV9: Battle Partners, the landmark Japanese Scarlet & Violet expansion that brought back the beloved Trainer's Pokémon mechanic — a concept first seen in the original Gym Heroes era, now reimagined for a new generation of collectors.

At the center of it all is Iono herself. The Electric-type Gym Leader of Levincia in Paldea, she doubles as a wildly popular in-universe livestreamer and influencer — one of the most charismatic and culturally resonant Trainers introduced in Scarlet & Violet. Her Bellibolt ex SAR captures that energy perfectly: illustrated by Yuu Nishida, the full-art scene is packed with broadcast-style effects and cartoonish flair that feel unmistakably on-brand for Iono's streaming persona.

• Set: SV9 Battle Partners — Japan-exclusive release, January 24, 2025
• Card number: 125/100 — a beyond-the-set Secret Rare tier

• Raw market: Recent sales tracking shows raw copies moving around $16–$20 in lightly played condition; PSA 10 copies command a significant premium in the secondary market

Iono and Bellibolt are featured on the set's own booster pack art — a distinction that cements this pairing as the face of Battle Partners. The SAR version is the definitive collectible form of that relationship. Whether you're building a Japanese SAR run, chasing Iono's growing collector catalog, or targeting cards with real competitive utility, this is the one that checks every box.
