Regidrago V #184/195 - Silver Tempest Expansion

From the Silver Tempest expansion is a stunning example of the "Alternate Art" style that has defined the modern era of Pokémon collecting.

As a cornerstone of the Sword & Shield era's final sets, this card represents the pinnacle of Dragon-type representation in the TCG, blending high-tier playability with museum-quality illustration.

Full Art Design

This Full Art card extends the illustration to the very edges, featuring textured foil across the entire artwork. The texture follows the intricate lines of the mossy ruins and the scales of Regidrago itself, creating a tactile and visual experience that standard holographic cards cannot match.

Under light, the etching creates a shimmering depth that highlights a small silhouette of Lugia flying in the distant sky—a legendary Easter egg for eagle-eyed fans.

Why Collectors & Players Love This Card

Regidrago V is more than just a powerful Pokémon; it is a piece of Galar region lore brought to life. Collectors are drawn to this specific "Alt Art" because of the incredible storytelling within the frame. The presence of Lugia in the background bridges the gap between the Johto and Galar regions, making it a cross-generational favorite.

The earthy, muted color palette used by Hataya sets this card apart from the neon-heavy designs of other V cards, making it a standout piece in any display binder.

Gameplay Highlights:

• Celestial Roar: Discard the top 3 cards of your deck and attach any discarded Energy cards to Regidrago V. This ability provides vital acceleration for Dragon-type decks, which often require multiple energy types to function.
• Dragon Laser: A devastating attack that deals 130 damage to the active Pokémon while simultaneously sniping 30 damage to one of your opponent's benched Pokémon, allowing you to set up multiple knockouts in a single turn.

Investment & Collectibility

Alternate Art Ultra Rares from the Sword & Shield era have historically shown strong market resilience. As the Silver Tempest set moves further out of print, "chase cards" like Regidrago V become increasingly difficult to find in Near Mint condition.

This card appeals to three distinct markets:

• Dragon-type enthusiasts
• Fans of "Regi" lore
• Collectors of high-end Full Art textures

Artistic Merit: Hataya’s unique, detailed style has made them a fan-favorite illustrator, often leading to higher long-term demand for their specific contributions to the TCG.
