Palkia V SWSH253

Palkia V is a Sword and Shield era promo card, carried by the SWSH253 number that identifies it within the Sword and Shield Promo series. These black star promos were distributed through collection boxes and special releases rather than standard booster packs, which gives them a distinct place in the wider Sword and Shield line up.

As a Pokemon V card, this Palkia represents the headline mechanic of the era, with a higher health pool and bold artwork built around a single powerful Pokemon. Palkia has long been a favourite among collectors thanks to its legendary status, and seeing it presented as a V promo gives fans of the character another version to track down.

Promo cards like this one appeal to collectors who enjoy gathering the releases that sit outside the main set numbering. A clean SWSH253 Palkia V slots neatly into a promo focused collection or a wider Palkia run.
