The Zapdos ex Special Illustration Rare — #202/165 from Scarlet & Violet: 151 (MEW) is one of the defining chase cards from the most nostalgic Pokémon TCG release of the modern era. Illustrated by Shiburingaru, the full-art canvas places Zapdos front and center alongside Articuno and Moltres in a breathtaking, electric panorama — the only legendary bird trio SIR in the entire set, and a card that stops anyone cold the moment they see it.

  • Special Illustration Rare (SIR) — one of the hardest pulls in Scarlet & Violet: 151, sitting above the set's 165-card base in the secret rare tier
  • Numbered 202/165, a full-art holo with the premium texturing and depth collectors associate with top-tier modern Pokémon SIRs
  • Scarlet & Violet: 151 is the first complete Kanto collection in TCG history, featuring all 151 original Pokémon in Pokédex order — a cultural milestone released September 22, 2023
  • Raw Near Mint copies are currently moving around $110–$112, with a PSA 9 trading near $120 and a PSA 10 Gem Mint commanding ~$511

TCGplayer called this card the only legendary bird to receive the Illustration Rare treatment in the set, combining an iconic Pokémon with a genuinely powerful game piece — Zapdos ex spreads damage to the opposing Bench and retreats for free. For collectors, it's a binder centerpiece and a legitimate grading target; raw NM copies have trended upward 5%+ over the last 30 days. If you're building a 151 master set or want one of Gen 1's most iconic trios immortalized in premium modern art, this is the card to own.
