Iron Thorns EX 196/167

This is Iron Thorns EX 196/167 from Twilight Masquerade, a Scarlet and Violet era expansion. Because the card number (196) runs higher than the printed set total (167), this Iron Thorns EX is a Secret Rare, sitting beyond the main checklist as one of the harder to find bonus cards. It also carries the Ultra Rare classification within the set.

Iron Thorns is one of the future paradox Pokemon introduced in the Scarlet and Violet games, a mechanical counterpart to a familiar species, with a sleek, technological design that has made the paradox line popular among collectors. As an EX card, it brings higher hit points and powerful attacks, reflecting the strength of these cards in play.

For collectors chasing the Twilight Masquerade Secret Rares, the paradox EX cards are among the most desirable pulls. A clean copy of Iron Thorns EX is a strong addition for fans of the paradox Pokemon and Scarlet and Violet set builders.
