Arceus VSTAR 123/172 Metal

This is Arceus VSTAR 123/172 in its Metal finish, a promotional release. The Promo and Promotional tags, together with the Metal tag, point to a special edition of the card distributed through dedicated products rather than a standard booster pull. The metal treatment sets it apart from the regular printing of the same card.

The VSTAR tag identifies the card type. VSTAR cards were a headline mechanic late in the Sword and Shield era, building on the V line with a single use VSTAR Power. Arceus is the Legendary Pokemon often described as the originator of the Sinnoh mythology, which gives this card lasting significance beyond its play history.

Collectors look for the Metal Arceus VSTAR both as an Arceus piece and as a distinctive promotional item. Special finish promos like this hold their own niche, and Arceus's standing as a marquee Legendary makes it a rewarding card to track down for a focused collection.
