Honchkrow V 088/172

This is Honchkrow V, card number 088/172 from the English Brilliant Stars set. The V suffix marks it as a Pokemon V, a single card line from the Sword and Shield era with higher hit points and stronger attacks, balanced by the rule that an opponent takes two prize cards when it is knocked out. Honchkrow is the evolution of Murkrow, a line that first appeared in the Sinnoh region games.

Brilliant Stars is a Sword and Shield era release that opened a new chapter for the block, known for introducing the VSTAR mechanic and for its deep card list across many rarities. Honchkrow V sits among the Pokemon V cards from the set, giving collectors a recognisable Sinnoh era line in the modern V frame.

Collectors look for Honchkrow V to complete a Brilliant Stars run and for the appeal of the Murkrow family. Clean, well centred copies are the ones set builders prefer, so condition is worth a close look when adding this card to a collection.
