VSTAR Giratina with 280 HP and a top attack near 280 damage. Ultra-rare Giratina variants like this occasionally turned up in constructed decks during their era, though seldom as a deck's centerpiece.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Lost Impact Cost: Grass + Psychic + Colorless · 280 damage

Put 2 Energy attached to your Pokémon in the Lost Zone.

Star Requiem Cost: Grass + Psychic

You can use this attack only if you have 10 or more cards in the Lost Zone. Your opponent's Active Pokémon is Knocked Out. (You can't use more than 1 VSTAR Power in a game.)

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: Modern ultra/secret rare; PSA 10 populations are moderate and grading is common for higher-value pulls.

Holo scratching and centering are the usual downgrade culprits; graded gem-mint copies trade above raw.

Other graders: CGC and BGS both grade modern ultra-rares; PSA leads on resale liquidity.
