Arctibax 209/193

Arctibax is an Illustration Rare from Paldea Evolved, an English Scarlet and Violet era set. The 209/193 number runs past the set's base count of 193, which is how Illustration Rares are listed: as cards that sit beyond the numbered main set.

Illustration Rares are built around their artwork. Instead of a plain battle pose, these cards place the Pokemon in a fuller scene, giving the illustrator room to capture Arctibax with extra detail and atmosphere. That expanded art style is the main draw for collectors, who value the tier for its presentation as much as its rarity.

Arctibax is part of a newer evolution family introduced in the Paldea region, which adds interest for fans following the latest generation. Whether you collect Paldea Evolved by set or focus on the Illustration Rare line, this card offers the considered illustration work that defines the category.
