Collector’s notes

Raikou ☆ 114/115 (Unseen Forces)
Raikou ☆ shows the Legendary beast lunging straight at you out of a dark, lightning-streaked sky, one huge clawed paw thrust toward the frame and its jaws open in a snarl. Art by Masakazu Fukuda, it is drawn in the shiny palette against a sparkling holo background. Gold Star cards from the EX era are among the scarcest pulls of the period, and this one closes out Unseen Forces.
Raikou H26 (Skyridge)
Raikou crouches low against a dark, storm-lit backdrop, its purple mane billowing and lightning crackling behind it, with the sparkling cosmos holo foil filling the sky around the beast. Art by Mitsuhiro Arita, this is one of the holo rares from Skyridge, the final set of the e-Card era, which has long been among the hardest vintage sets to complete and keeps fans of the Legendary beasts hunting.
Raikou SL9 (Call of Legends)
Raikou lunges straight at you here, fangs bared and front paw raised, its purple cloud of a mane trailing behind as white lightning crackles through a stormy blue backdrop. Art by Noriko Hotta, the rendered style gives the beast real weight and motion. As one of the Shiny Legends subset in Call of Legends, this Rare Holo draws fans of the Johto legendary beasts and anyone chasing that special run.
