Authentic versions of Garchomp ex 245/182 sell for roughly $20.00+, but this specific version (labeled 215/182 with Cynthia) is not a legitimate release.
Condition Details
The card visually appears in brand new condition with sharp corners and centered art; however, it lacks the official texture expected of a real Pokemon SIR.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. This card is a 'custom' or 'proxy' card and would be rejected by PSA, BGS, or CGC as an unauthentic item.
Card Description
Corkscrew Dive (100): You may draw cards until you have 6 cards in your hand. Draconic Buster (260): Discard all Energy from this Pokemon.
Notable Features
Includes art of the trainer Cynthia in the background. Note the set symbol 'DRI' which does not exist in the official Pokemon TCG library.
Authentication Notes
HIGH RISK/COUNTERFEIT: This is not an official Pokemon card. The set 'Paradox Rift' does not contain a card numbered 215/182 with this art. The real Garchomp ex SIR is numbered 245/182 and features a different, water-themed background. The texture is missing, and the 'DRI' set code is a fabrication common in Chinese-manufactured fakes.
