What it does
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may have your opponent switch 1 of your Active Pokémon with 1 of your Benched Pokémon. Then, you switch 1 of the Defending Pokémon with 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. This power can't be used if Palkia is affected by a Special Condition.
You may move all Energy cards attached to Palkia to your Benched Pokémon in any way you like. (Ignore this effect if you don't have any Benched Pokémon.)
Put this card onto your Active Palkia. Palkia LV.X can use any attack, Poké-Power, or Poké-Body from its previous level.

Where it came from
Released in the 2008 Great Encounters expansion, the Palkia LV.X card stands as a hallmark of the Diamond & Pearl era of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Introduced to showcase the legendary Spatial Pokémon from the Sinnoh region, this card was part of a mechanic that allowed players to 'Level Up' their active Pokémon, granting them enhanced stats and unique 'Poke-Powers.' This specific card, numbered 106/106, served as the secret rare chase card of the set, featuring a distinct holographic finish that was highly sought after by competitive players and collectors alike during the late 2000s.
The visual design of the Palkia LV.X reflects the aesthetic shift towards the more intricate, CGI-influenced art style popularized by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company during the late Diamond & Pearl series. Illustrators at the time focused on emphasizing the imposing, celestial nature of the box-art legendaries through dynamic poses and textured, cosmic-themed foil patterns. Upon its release, the card received critical acclaim within the community for its strategic utility in water-type decks and its status as a pinnacle of the set's collection, representing a significant technical evolution in the game's mechanics.
