Illustrated by Ryo Ueda, this legendary Darkness/Lightning dual-type grail stands as the ultimate, highly coveted Secret Rare of the entire 2005 EX Deoxys expansion. Numbered beyond the base set roster (#108/107), this card possessed an extraordinarily elusive pull rate upon release, making it notoriously difficult to acquire on the secondary market—especially in clean, well-preserved condition. The artwork captures the Legendary Beast in a dark, menacing Team Rocket styling, vividly highlighted by cosmos holofoil sparkle and framed by iconic silver metallic borders. Encased within a protective AiGrading rigid anti-impact slab, this specimen earns an 8.5 NM-MT+ overall grade. Its strong technical standing is anchored by a sharp 9.5 for front borders and solid 9 sub-grades across overall borders, back borders, back surface, and all corner parameters (overall, front, back). A premier, centerpiece-level trophy card offering supreme vintage prestige and outstanding long-term growth potential.
