[Update 14 May 2025] The Froslass\/Munkidori deck now includes this card to pick off opposing high-HP Basic Pok\u00e9mon which have already suffered chip damage via the Abilities of the deck’s two titular Pok\u00e9mon.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

[Update 14 Apr 2025] A recently-emerged Tera Box deck variant includes Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex for its capabilities as a late-game finisher, particularly against opposing Pok\u00e9mon-ex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[Update 27 Feb 2025] This card has now become part of a new Miraidon ex deck variant; while not the most common, it’s nonetheless seen a reasonable level of use at tournaments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[Update 19 Jun 2024] As things have turned out, the phrase “unlikely to become a staple of the meta’s next rotation” ended up being completely off the mark. Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex has indeed become a key piece of the current meta as part of the Lost Zone Box deck. Having replaced the Roaring Moon ex card from Ancient Roar [SV4K], Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex is now a vital piece of one of the meta’s best decks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet video games’ DLC The Teal Mask, a mysterious creature known as the “Bloodmoon Beast” lives in the Kitakami region’s Timeless Woods. The Bloodmoon Beast turns out to be a Bloodmoon Ursaluna\u2014a centuries-old Ursaluna that made its way to Kitakami from the Hisui region (the Sinnoh region’s name in antiquity according to in-universe canon). That same Bloodmoon Ursaluna makes its Pok\u00e9mon TCG debut in the Crimson Haze [SV5a] set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a newly-introduced Pok\u00e9mon form, this Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex card possesses a novelty factor which won’t wear off for some time. In addition, this card’s rarity of Special Art Rare (SAR) greatly enhances its value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The card’s illustration, a Full Art rendering of Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex in the Timeless Woods, makes use of a watercolor-esque aesthetic matching the light-hearted tone of the imagery. Although the card does feature a canonical error (there are no Teddiursa in the Timeless Woods), this doesn’t detract from the overall demand for the card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gameplay-wise, while unlikely to become a staple of the meta’s next rotation, there’ll still likely be a place for Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex as a “pocket pick” in certain decks. While its Blood Moon attack ordinarily requires a whopping five Energy cards to be used, Bloodmoon Ursaluna’s Ability is Veteran’s Technique. That Ability reduces Blood Moon’s Energy card requirement by one per Prize card that the opponent has taken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This card’s English version will be part of the Twilight Masquerade [TWM] set. Its number hasn’t yet been finalized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The price of a Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex (Crimson Haze [SV5a] 091\/066) card of SAR rarity is 4,280 JPY (~US$28).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
