Aegislash - 210/182 - SV04: Paradox Rift (PAR) Pokemon
Aegislash — 210/182 — SV04: Paradox Rift — Illustration Rare
This is the Illustration Rare version of Aegislash from SV04: Paradox Rift — the Scarlet & Violet era set that brought some of the most striking full-art treatments in the modern Pokémon TCG. Numbered 210/182, it lands beyond the standard set total, marking it as one of the elevated rarities collectors actually chase out of packs. The artwork is handled by Takumi Wada, whose signature scenic compositions give this card a painterly depth you don't get on base holos.
- Rarity: Illustration Rare (IR) — holofoil, numbered 210/182
- Card type: Metal / Stage 2 / 150 HP
- Ability — Mysterious Shield: prevents all damage from opponent's Pokémon ex and Pokémon V, making it a legitimately disruptive competitive piece
- Attack — Hard Bashing (120): damage unaffected by any effects on the opponent's Active Pokémon
- Artist: Takumi Wada
- Market price: raw Near Mint copies trading in the $8–$11 range with recent upward momentum
Paradox Rift Illustration Rares consistently outperform their set-rarity peers on the secondary market, and Aegislash's Mysterious Shield ability keeps this card relevant well beyond its release window. The combination of competitive utility and Wada's artwork makes the 210/182 IR one of the cleaner pickups in the set at its current price point.
