Arceus VSTAR 123/172

This is Arceus VSTAR, number 123/172, from the English Brilliant Stars set. Arceus is the Normal type Mythical Pokemon often described as the originator of the Sinnoh mythology, which makes any Arceus card a notable subject for collectors of Legendary and Mythical Pokemon.

The VSTAR card type sits in the Sword and Shield era and builds on the V mechanic, adding a one per game VSTAR Power that can be a powerful attack or ability. These cards carry high hit points and give up two prize cards when knocked out. Arceus VSTAR in particular was a widely played card during its run, which has kept it well recognised among players and collectors alike.

The collector number 123 falls within the printed set size of 172, so this is a card from within the main Brilliant Stars set rather than a secret rare. Collectors look for it both for competitive history and for the appeal of the Arceus name.
