Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX (Alternate Art Secret Rare)

This is an authentic English-language Pokémon Trading Card Game card featuring Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX from the Sword & Shield: Battle Styles expansion, released in 2021. The card is a 'Secret Rare' alternate art variant, designated by the collector number 170/163. It features a full-bleed, dynamic illustration by artist Mitsuhiro Arita, showcasing the Gigantamax form of Urshifu amidst a chaotic blue and white watery swirl with other Pokémon. The card is constructed from multi-layered cardstock with a distinct textured holographic finish that reacts to light. It possesses 330 HP and lists two specific attacks: Gale Thrust and G-Max Rapid Flow. The layout includes the 'Rapid Strike' logo in the upper right. Regarding condition, the card appears to be in raw, ungraded state. The centering looks relatively stable from the front, though the bottom border seems slightly thicker than the top. There are no immediate visible creases or surface scratches from the photograph, but slight silvering or whitening may be present on the sharp corners, which is typical for modern Pokémon cards handled without immediate sleeving. The card represents a high-rarity 'chase card' from its specific set, valued for its complex etching and intricate artwork.
