Banette EX 088/198

Banette EX (088/198) comes from the Scarlet & Violet Base Set, the English release that launched the Scarlet & Violet era. As an EX card, it carries higher hit points and a hard-hitting attack, while a Knock Out hands your opponent two prize cards, so it sits at the powerful end of the set's playable lineup.

Banette has long been a favourite among collectors who enjoy the eerie, mischievous side of the Pokemon world, and seeing it return with the EX mechanic gives this version real appeal. Within the Scarlet & Violet Base Set checklist, the EX cards are the ones most players and collectors chase first, both for deck building and for display.

If you are putting together a Scarlet & Violet Base Set collection, or you simply like Banette, this is a tidy way to add an EX in mint condition to your binder.
