Ceruledge ex #147

Ceruledge ex (147/131) from the Prismatic Evolutions set is a notable collector's item, primarily due to its designation as a Special Illustration Rare and its status as a secret rare. The card's numbering, which extends beyond the set's official total, indicates a rarer pull rate, making it a more challenging and rewarding acquisition for enthusiasts of the Scarlet & Violet series. This specific rarity level is characterized by a distinctive full-art treatment that showcases the Pokémon in an extended, unique illustration.

Beyond its rarity, Ceruledge ex is a powerful Stage 1 Tera Pokémon ex with 270 HP, featuring a unique protective rule: it prevents all damage while on your Bench. Its Abyssal Flames attack scales damage based on Energy cards in the discard pile, offering strategic depth for Fire-type decks. The card's thematic depth is further highlighted by the Pokédex entry for Ceruledge, which describes how "The fiery blades on its arms burn fiercely with the lingering resentment of a sword wielder who fell before accomplishing their goal," encapsulating the intense spirit of this Fire Blades Pokémon.
