Serperior Card Appraisal

Serperior VSTAR Full Art Pokémon Trading Card

This is a full art holographic Pokémon trading card featuring Serperior VSTAR, a Grass-type Pokémon. The card has a vibrant, glossy finish characteristic of modern Pokémon cards, with a distinct holographic shimmer that diffuses light, giving a rainbow-like effect across the entire card face, especially visible in the background and around the Pokémon's illustration. The 'VSTAR' designation is prominently displayed next to 'Serperior' and indicates a special type of powerful Pokémon card from recent sets. The card has a listed HP of 270 (visible at the top right) and features two attacks: 'Regal Blender' with 190 damage, and a 'VSTAR Power' ability called 'Star Winder' which deals 60 damage for each Energy attached. The artwork depicts Serperior in a dynamic pose, with its elegant white and green serpentine body contrasting against a cosmic, star-filled, purple and gold background that emanates light. Notable features include the detailed textures in Serperior's scales and the ethereal quality of the background art, which extends beyond the traditional art box to cover the entire card, indicating its 'Full Art' status. The card appears to be in excellent condition, with no visible creases, scuffs, or edge wear, suggesting it is either a new pull or has been well-preserved. Minor dust particles are visible on the surface, which is common if not immediately sleeved. The bottom left corner displays the card number 'G 135/135', indicating it is card 135 out of a set with 135 cards, and the set symbol appears to be from the 'Crown Zenith' expansion (indicated by the Pokeball with a crown-like symbol). This full art, holographic, and VSTAR rarity combination makes it a sought-after collectible, embodying the high-quality printing and intricate design prevalent in contemporary Pokémon TCG releases.
