lost abyss pokemon booster box Pack joined by Kyurem VMAX in the Lost Abyss expansion Lost Box Pokemon Pokemon Card

While running a deck with just permanents that cost two or less mana in Standard mostly limits Lurrus of the Dream Den to very aggressive shells, playing Lurrus, of the Dream-Den as your companion becomes much easier in older formats, which place a higher value on efficiency

Paldean Fates benefits from being a special set with a smaller card pool, making its SIRs harder to pull

There are some other things that ppl mentioned, from other areas of the text, to the +/- 15 screen angles (As an aside to @Nightvulture, these are also thin stamp variants that shouldnt have the -15 backs, another red flag), but heres a smoking gun imo that requires little judgement and is easy to see: the flame icons in the fire energies should not have a black bottom border: Screenshot 2026-01-04 at 9.06.27 PM826800 80.7 KB If I had to guess, Id believe what @pikachutcg mentioned, and that these use real backs with a sticker

These cards are not only visually unique but also released in extremely limited quantitiesespecially compared to standard holo or reverse holo variants
