Rotom V 177/196

This is Rotom V from Lost Origin, the Sword and Shield era set known for its expanded run of alternate art cards. As a Pokemon V, Rotom benefits from a higher HP pool and powerful attacks, and a single Knock Out on a V card hands two prize cards to the opponent, which is the trade off for that extra power.

This particular printing is the Alternate Art version, as noted in its tags. Alternate art cards feature full body, scene based illustrations that extend the artwork across the whole card rather than confining it to a central window. The card number 177/196 sits above the standard set size of 196, placing it within the set's extended slots reserved for these special illustrations.

Collectors look for the alternate art Rotom V because of its distinctive artwork and the popularity of Rotom as a quirky, fan favourite Pokemon. It is a favourite among players who enjoy building themed displays from the Lost Origin run.
