Description
Koraidon – 119/162 – Holo Rare – Temporal Forces
The Temporal Forces expansion focuses on time‑distortion themes, Paradox Pokémon, and high‑contrast holo treatments across the Scarlet & Violet era. As the ancient counterpart to Miraidon, Koraidon brings a primal, muscular presence to the set, perfectly matching Temporal Forces’ prehistoric aesthetic and dynamic holofoil style.
The Holo Rare Pokémon card type features a centered holofoil pattern that highlights the artwork window while keeping the card frame matte. Scarlet & Violet holo patterns use a smooth reflective finish that enhances color depth and detail without overwhelming the illustration. Holo Rares are essential for collectors completing full set binders or building holo‑focused pages.
Koraidon, introduced in Generation IX, is known for its ancient reptilian design, powerful physical attacks, and lore tied to Area Zero’s past. Koraidon 119/162 has strong binder appeal thanks to its bold artwork, legendary status, and the premium shine of the Holo Rare treatment. As one of the most iconic Paradox Pokémon, Koraidon remains highly collectible across the Scarlet & Violet era.
In tournament play, Koraidon typically functions as a heavy‑hitting Fighting/Dragon‑type attacker with moves focused on pressure, tempo, or synergy with Fighting‑type engines. While not always a top‑tier competitive staple, it is appreciated in formats where strong attackers, type synergy, or aggressive strategies matter. The Holo Rare version is often chosen by players who enjoy upgrading their deck aesthetics.
The artwork for Koraidon 119/162 is illustrated by Shinji Kanda, known for stylized linework, bold shapes, and dramatic character expression. Kanda’s distinct artistic style gives Koraidon a fierce, primal look that stands out in binder pages. The holo pattern enhances the artwork’s reflective qualities, adding depth and shine without overpowering the illustration.
