The Zapdos ex #202/165 — Special Illustration Rare — Scarlet & Violet 151 — PSA 10 Gem Mint is exactly the kind of slab serious Pokémon TCG collectors build display cases around. Zapdos ex 202/165 crackles with energy: as one of the original Legendary Birds, Zapdos has always had lightning-level popularity, and this Special Illustration Rare version takes things to the next level. The dynamic artwork shows Zapdos mid-flight alongside its counterparts Articuno and Moltres — a true three-for-one in a single frame. Illustration credit goes to artist Shiburingaru.

Pokémon 151 represents the first complete Kanto collection in TCG history, featuring all 151 original Pokémon in Pokédex order. Released September 22, 2023, this cultural phenomenon unites nostalgic millennials with new collectors. The set commands premium pricing because it taps into a uniquely deep well of nostalgia — the first time all 151 original Pokémon have appeared together in a single TCG set since the early WOTC days, driving demand from collectors who hadn't touched the hobby in years. The overall SIR pull rate sits at 1 in 32 packs, and with multiple SIRs competing in the set, landing this Zapdos requires serious luck.

  • Card: Zapdos ex — #202/165 — Special Illustration Rare (SIR)
  • Set: Scarlet & Violet 151 (MEW) — September 2023
  • Grade: PSA 10 Gem Mint — flawless centering, surfaces, edges, and corners
  • Ability: Voltaic Float — if this Pokémon has any Lightning Energy attached, it has no retreat cost.
  • Raw market comp: Raw Near Mint copies have been trending upward, with recent sales at $122. PSA 10 slabs carry a meaningful premium above that floor.
  • Demand trend: The #202/165 SIR is among Zapdos ex's biggest short-term price movers across all tracked formats.

The set's cultural significance drives sustained demand that keeps prices elevated beyond typical modern sets. A PSA 10 puts this card in its absolute best state — authenticated, protected, and wall-display ready. For the collector building out a Legendary Birds showcase or a master-grade SV151 slab run, this is the one to own.
