Clamperl 195/182

This is Clamperl, card 195/182 from Destined Rivals. The card number sits above the set total, which marks it as one of the cards numbered beyond the main set, the range reserved for the special rares collectors chase towards the end of a run.

This is an Illustration Rare, a card type that puts the artwork front and centre. Illustration Rares depict the Pokemon in a full scene with detailed surroundings rather than the usual bordered portrait, so the card becomes as much about the illustration as the Pokemon it features. The format has become a standout part of recent sets and is a favourite among collectors who value art driven cards.

Clamperl is a charming, less common pick for the spotlight, and an Illustration Rare gives it a memorable presentation. Anyone completing the Destined Rivals rare run or building a binder around standout artwork will be glad to slot this one in.
