\"Pok\u00e9mon<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the second half of 2023, Miraidon ex from the Violet ex [SV1V] set was one of the Pok\u00e9mon TCG metagame’s most dominant cards. This card served as the centerpiece of decks that claimed the title at major tournaments such as Champions League Yokohama and the Pok\u00e9mon Latin America International Championships (LAIC). Since then, however, Miraidon ex has fallen off from the scene’s peak\u2014until Akira Kurasaki’s recent triumph at Champions League Sapporo with a deck built around this card<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main use of Miraidon ex is for setup purposes. Its Ability of Tandem Unit allows the player to place two Basic Electric-type Pok\u00e9mon from the deck and put them on the Bench. Preferably, one of those Pok\u00e9mon would be the Iron Hands ex card from Future Flash [SV4M]\u2014a card with which Miraidon ex combines exceptionally well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If necessary, Miraidon ex itself is also capable of dealing serious damage. Photon Blaster hits for 220 damage for three Energy cards; its drawback of disallowing Miraidon ex from attacking on the player’s next turn isn’t a big issue either due to Miraidon ex’s low retreat cost of one Energy card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decks built around Miraidon ex tend to play at a rapid pace with a highly aggressive playstyle. For this reason, it’s often a good choice for first-time tournament players because such decks are relatively simple to understand and play, thus reducing the chance of the player making an error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From a visual perspective, this Ultra Rare (UR) card comes with a gold background and border; the Paradox Pok\u00e9mon is also outlined in gold. The holofoil that covers the card as well as the gold-colored theme highlight the card’s power and rarity, while the sparkle-emblazoned background highlights the unique status of the Paradox Pok\u00e9mon as the box Legendary of the Pok\u00e9mon Violet video game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The English version of this card is 253\/198 from the Scarlet & Violet [SV1] set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The price of a Miraidon ex (Violet ex [SV1V] 106\/078) card of UR rarity is 5,710 JPY (~US$37).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
