Team Rocket's Raticate 202/182

This is Team Rocket's Raticate, card number 202/182, an Illustration Rare from Destined Rivals. Destined Rivals brings back the Team Rocket theme, and Raticate appears here as one of their Pokemon, complete with the styling that ties the Team Rocket cards together across the set.

Illustration Rares are among the most popular cards collectors chase in current expansions. The number 202 sits beyond the main set size of 182, which places this card in the special art section of the set. Rather than the standard card frame, Illustration Rares present the Pokemon in a detailed, full art scene that leads with the artwork. The Team Rocket flavour adds extra character on top of that appeal.

For collectors working through the Destined Rivals special art cards, or anyone drawn to the Team Rocket subset, this Team Rocket's Raticate combines a nostalgic theme with one of the set's most desirable card styles.
