Not long after, the &#8220;true forms&#8221; of these two Pok\u00e9mon made their way to the Pok\u00e9mon TCG where their respective cards became highly sought-after\u2014one of which was the Origin Forme Dialga VSTAR card from the VSTAR Universe [S12a] expansion set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This Ultra Rare (UR) card&#8217;s Full Art illustration by AKIRA EGAWA depicts Origin Forme Dialga VSTAR in an indeterminate setting juxtaposing sky and land. This may allude to Origin Forme Dialga VSTAR&#8217;s powers of time as well as its connections to space-time distortions\u2014further referenced by the stream of light in the illustration&#8217;s top-right corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The card&#8217;s gold border is an ideal match for the similarly-toned imagery. It adds touches of class and exclusivity to a card which is not only one of its set&#8217;s rarest but also features one of the most powerful Pok\u00e9mon in the entire series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of gameplay, although this card isn&#8217;t one of the current meta&#8217;s dominant cards, its VSTAR Power does give it a niche use in certain situations. Once per game, Star Chronos can be used. Inflicting 220 damage for five Energy cards, this attack also forces opponents to skip their next turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The English version of this card is card GG68\/GG70 in the Crown Zenith expansion set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One copy of an Origin Forme Dialga VSTAR (VSTAR Universe [S12a] 260\/172) card of UR rarity sells for 6,500 JPY (~US$43).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other TCG-related news, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2024\/04\/03\/yu-gi-oh-tcg-bonfires-japanese-version-breaks-new-rarity-ground-quarter-century-chronicle-sideunity-qccu-jp198\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bonfire card from Quarter Century Chronicle side:Pride<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can also head over to the SNKRDUNK App via the banner below and find the top trending and latest single cards and boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunkappen.page.link\/G4g7_PokemonTCG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/15110337\/TCG.webp\" alt=\"TCG on the SNKRDUNK App\" class=\"wp-image-151767\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The release of the Pok\u00e9mon Legends: Arceus video game, a prequel to Pok\u00e9mon Diamond and Pearl, introduced the Origin Formes of Dialga and Palkia, the Legendary Pok\u00e9mon of time and space respectively.
