Raikou V Double Rare 038/172 VSTAR Universe Japanese Pokémon Card

Raikou V 038/172 is a Double Rare (RR) Holofoil Lightning-type Basic Pokémon V card from the Japanese S12a: VSTAR Universe expansion, offered in Near Mint (NM) condition. This authentic Japanese Pokémon card features 200 HP, with the Ability Fleet-Footed, which allows you to draw a card once during your turn if Raikou V is in the Active Spot. Its attack Lightning Rondo deals 20 damage plus 20 additional damage for each Benched Pokémon on both sides of the field, giving the attack strong scaling potential when both players have developed full Benches. Raikou V has Fighting-type weakness, no Resistance, and a one-Energy retreat cost, while the Pokémon V rule means an opponent takes 2 Prize cards when it is Knocked Out. The card is illustrated by PLANETA Mochizuki and carries the standard 038/172 numbering within VSTAR Universe. Raikou V 038/172 is an excellent addition to S12a VSTAR Universe master sets, Raikou collections, Legendary Pokémon collections, Japanese Pokémon V binders, Double Rare collections, and collectors completing the full VSTAR Universe card lineup. Its Holofoil finish, iconic Raikou artwork, popular Legendary Pokémon identity, and connection to the Sword & Shield era give it strong collector, binder, and display appeal. The regular RR printing is also distinct from the higher-numbered Raikou V special-art variant found in the same Japanese set.
