Great Tusk EX 230/198

Great Tusk ex 230/198 comes from the Scarlet & Violet Base Set and carries the ex card type. Because the first number, 230, exceeds the set size of 198, this card sits beyond the regular numbering as a secret rare. Secret rares are the cards numbered above a set's stated total, and they are usually the harder to find chase cards of an expansion.

Great Tusk is one of the Paradox Pokemon introduced in the Scarlet and Violet games, an ancient counterpart with a bold, prehistoric design. The lower case ex mechanic marks powerful Pokemon that give up extra prizes when knocked out in play, and pairing that with the secret rare treatment makes this a card collectors actively seek.

It fits a Scarlet & Violet Base Set build, a Paradox Pokemon collection, or a display of secret rare ex cards. Its place above the main numbering keeps it a notable target within the set.
