Cynthia's Garchomp ex - 241/182 - SV10: Destined Rivals (DRI) PSA 10
Cynthia's Garchomp ex 241/182 is the Gold Hyper Rare from Scarlet & Violet—Destined Rivals (SV10), numbered beyond the set's 182-card base as a full-gold secret rare. This is the rarest treatment of the most celebrated Sinnoh pairing in the Pokémon TCG — Cynthia, the beloved champion of the Diamond & Pearl era, alongside her iconic pseudo-legendary Garchomp, a Dragon/Ground powerhouse that has defined competitive Pokémon since its 2006 debut.
- Set context: Destined Rivals (May 30, 2025) is one of the most collector-driven releases in the Scarlet & Violet era, bringing Team Rocket back with 45+ affiliated cards and pairing them against fan-favorite heroes — Cynthia, Ethan, and Misty among them.
- Card rarity: The 241/182 is the Gold Hyper Rare variant — the highest-rarity treatment in the set, featuring a full gold holofoil finish with premium gold border trimming across the entire card face.
- Pull rate: SIR and Hyper Rare secret rares in Destined Rivals hit roughly 1 in 94 packs for any secret rare — making a specific gold copy genuinely scarce from box breaks.
- Market: Raw copies of the 241 Hyper Rare trade in the $27–$35 range; PSA 10 slabs carry a meaningful graded premium on the secondary market, with active sell-through confirmed across eBay.
- This slab: PSA 10 Gem Mint — the definitive top grade, verified by the hobby's most recognized grading authority. A perfect copy of a gold secret rare built to display.
Generation IV nostalgia is at a high point, and Cynthia's Garchomp is the card that Gen 4 collectors have been waiting years for at this rarity level. A PSA 10 on the gold version locks in condition permanently — this is the version that belongs in a serious collection, not a binder.
