Garchomp EX 245/182

This is Garchomp EX from Paradox Rift, a Special Illustration Rare. The number 245/182 sits above the set's main total of 182, marking it as a secret rare slotted in beyond the listed set number where the harder to find cards live.

Special Illustration Rares are among the most desired cards in modern sets. They take an EX Pokemon and place it within a full, story driven scene, with the artwork extending across the whole card and a distinctive textured holographic finish. The result is a card that reads more like a piece of illustration than a standard game card.

Garchomp has a strong fan base carried over from its game appearances, and pairing it with the Special Illustration Rare treatment makes this a card collectors actively chase. It suits Garchomp fans, Paradox Rift set builders, and anyone who values the artwork led rarities of the Scarlet and Violet era.
