Due to the many variants and multiple standout cards of the Regidrago VSTAR deck, it’s understandable that the Kyurem card from Night Wanderer [SV6a] which is found in it might go overlooked at times. That, however, ought not to be the case—this is a card which plays a crucial role within the deck.

About Kyurem (Night Wanderer [SV6a] 047/064)

It’s interesting to note that in the specific case of this card, it’s actually best when discarded. This is because Regidrago VSTAR has the Apex Dragon attack which essentially replaces Apex Dragon with an attack of any Dragon-type Pokémon in the discard pile. This way, Regidrago VSTAR can use Kyurem’s Trifrost attack which inflicts 110 damage to three opposing Pokémon of the player’s choice—and it does so at a greatly reduced Energy cost, going from the usual five to just three.

In the context of this deck, Kyurem is basically unplayable outside the discard pile; the deck doesn’t contain any of the Water or Steel Energy cards it needs in order to use Trifrost on its own. That’s no issue, however—Kyurem fills a very specific niche that has helped take this deck all the way to the top.

This card’s appeal is virtually entirely predicated upon its gameplay prowess. It’s not particularly rare, doesn’t feature a major fan favorite Pokémon, and doesn’t have a Full Art illustration. Nevertheless, following the Regidrago VSTAR’s excellent performance at Worlds, demand for this card by serious players is sure to soar.
