Iron Valiant ex – Secret Rare – Scarlet & Violet Paradox Rift (2023) – Psychic – 220 HP. This special illustration rare Pokémon TCG trading card comes from the Scarlet & Violet “Paradox Rift” expansion, which explored Paldea’s time-twisting Paradox Pokémon theme. The full-art holofoil design by illustrator kantaro showcases Iron Valiant in a futuristic cosmic canyon scene (note the “Future” label and swirling background colors), making it visually striking. In play, Iron Valiant ex packs a 200–damage “Laser Blade” attack and a Bench-entry ability (“Tachyon Bits”) to place extra damage counters, offering strong Psychic-type support. As a secret rare (card number 249/182) with alternate artwork, it’s highly collectible – marking Iron Valiant’s debut as a Pokémon EX and prized for its rarity and dramatic, eye-catching design.
