Groudon - 199/182 - SV04: Paradox Rift (PAR) Pokemon

Groudon #199/182 — Illustration Rare — SV04: Paradox Rift

This is one of the most visually striking pulls from Scarlet & Violet—Paradox Rift, and the market has made its opinion clear. The Groudon Illustration Rare (199/182) sits well outside the set's standard 182-card base, placing it in the coveted over-numbered IR tier — a signature of the Scarlet & Violet era's premium parallel structure. Illustrated by Nurikabe, the full-bleed holofoil artwork reimagines the legendary continent Pokémon in a way that puts it in a completely different league from the base rare at #093.
