Provenance

Where it came from

Kingler V was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Brilliant Stars in early 2022. This set served as the introduction of the Trainer Gallery subset, which emphasized the bond between Trainers and their Pokémon, and Kingler V was designed to showcase the power of the Crab Pokémon within the Sword & Shield Series era mechanics. The card features a distinct V-rule, requiring players to surrender two prize cards upon being knocked out, reflecting its role as a high-stakes, aggressive attacker in the competitive landscape of the time.

The artwork for this specific card, numbered 028/172, was illustrated by Saki Hayashiro. The design captures Kingler in a dynamic, defensive stance, utilizing a vibrant water-themed aesthetic consistent with the series' artistic direction during the Sword & Shield block. As a Rare Holo V, it was intended to bridge the gap between common utility cards and the more elusive Full Art or Secret Rare variants, offering collectors and players an accessible but visually striking entry into the V-card mechanic.
