Zapdos V 174/198

This is Zapdos V, card 174/198 from the Chilling Reign set, in its Alt Art treatment. Alternate art V cards extend the artwork to cover the full card and place the Pokemon in a detailed scene, which makes them some of the most sought after pulls of the Sword and Shield era. The collector number (174 of 198) places this card within the main set, where the alt art versions sit above the standard rares.

As a Pokemon V, this card uses the single-stage, high HP mechanic of the era, where a knockout awards an extra prize card. Pairing that format with full scene alternate artwork is what gives cards like this their strong following.

Collectors look for 174/198 for its alternate artwork, to add a Zapdos card to a themed collection, or to round out a Chilling Reign set with one of its standout alt art cards.
