Iris's Fighting Spirit – Special Art Rare #247/193 | M2a: High Class Pack MEGA Dream ex (Japanese, 2025)
Iris — the beloved Dragon-type expert and Unova Champion — takes center stage in one of the most striking Supporter cards of the year. This SAR's artwork by Kuroimori depicts Druddigon, Haxorus, and Aggron, the exact Pokémon Iris wields as an opponent in every game she appears in — making it a portrait as lore-accurate as it is stunning. It's more than just a character portrait; it's a storytelling masterpiece, with Iris standing front and center, flanked by her heavy hitters.
- Rarity: Special Art Rare (SAR), numbered 247/193 — a secret rare beyond the base set's 193-card count.
- Card type: Trainer – Supporter. Discard a card from your hand to draw until you have 6 cards.
- The set: The Japanese Pokémon TCG MEGA Dream ex High Class Pack (M2a) is a premium expansion celebrating the return of Mega Evolution Pokémon, featuring guaranteed hits in every pack. It released in Japan on November 28, 2025.
- Pull difficulty: SARs in MEGA Dream ex are notoriously difficult to pull — hitting a specific top-tier Trainer like Iris requires serious luck.
