Hilda — the Unova protagonist known in Japan as Touko — only recently became a Supporter card in her own right, and the Japanese TCG has already given her three separate White Flare prints, including two Hilda full art versions, plus a mirror reprint and two promo cards. That’s six confirmed printings from a single 2025 debut, which is a fast start for a character card.
This guide covers every confirmed Hilda print: the White Flare uncommon, its Special Rare and Special Art Rare siblings, the MEGA Dream ex mirror reprint, and the promo and starter-deck cards that followed. We also cover exactly what her card does, how to tell the three White Flare versions apart, and where the graded copy we currently carry fits into all of it. We ship Japanese sealed product and PSA-graded singles out of Tokyo every week, so the stock referenced here comes directly from our own catalog.
Character Supporter cards built around a named protagonist — rather than a Pokémon — have become one of the more consistently collected categories in the modern Japanese TCG, and White Flare’s Hilda print is a clean example of why. The card doubles as a genuinely playable deck-search tool and as a nostalgia piece for anyone who played through the Black & White games, which is exactly the combination that tends to keep a Trainer card in demand well past its release window.
Six confirmed Hilda prints exist, all dated 2025 or later, led by three White Flare (SV11W) versions — an uncommon, a Special Rare, and a Special Art Rare. We currently list a graded PSA 10 Hilda, SR, SV11W 166/086 at ¥12,600 (~$82), and if you’d rather chase the set yourself, the SV11W White Flare Booster Box is currently listed from ¥17,760 (~$115).
We refreshed the PSA 10 Special Rare and Booster Box prices to our current listings and added pricing for the graded Special Art Rare below.
Card data below is drawn from the Japanese card database and confirmed against the physical card face where noted. Stock and pricing reflect our own catalog as of September 2026.
Every Hilda Card and What You Need to Know
Six confirmed Hilda prints, spanning one main set, one high-class reprint, and two promotional releases:
| Card | Number | Rarity | Set | Year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hilda | SV11W 085/086 | U | White Flare | 2025 |
| Hilda | SV11W 166/086 | SR | White Flare | 2025 |
| Hilda | SV11W 173/086 | SAR | White Flare | 2025 |
| Hilda | M2a 172/193 | — | MEGA Dream ex | 2025 |
| Hilda | MP 051/M-P | Promo | Pokémon Card Gym Promo | — |
| Hilda | MC 718/742 | — | Starter Decks 100 Battle Collection | 2025 |
All three of the White Flare (SV11W) prints share the same card effect and were illustrated by yuu, except for the Special Art Rare, which carries a separate illustration by Naoki Saito. The MEGA Dream ex card is a mirror reprint of the uncommon’s artwork, released five months after White Flare in the same high-class pack line that has also reprinted several other White Flare Trainer cards. The two remaining prints — a Pokémon Card Gym promo and a Starter Decks 100 Battle Collection card — round out the six confirmed printings, both using the same yuu artwork as the original uncommon.
Based on the Japanese card database, these six are the only confirmed Hilda prints currently on record, and all of them date to 2025 or later. We haven’t been able to confirm an earlier printing, so we can’t rule one out — but as far as the record shows, White Flare is her earliest confirmed print and where she became a Supporter card.
Hilda Full Art (White Flare): The Debut Special Rare, 166/086
The 166/086 Special Rare is where most collectors meet this card first, and it’s the printing we currently carry graded. The artwork by yuu places Hilda on a lamplit, stone-paved street, fists clenched at her sides — wearing the Poke Ball-cap, vest, and denim shorts outfit she’s known for from the Black & White games.
As a Supporter card, the effect is a deck-search tool: choose one Evolution Pokémon and one Energy card from your deck, show them to your opponent, and add both to your hand. Then shuffle your deck. It’s a straightforward way to set up an evolution line and fuel it in the same turn, which is part of why the card sees genuine play interest alongside its collector appeal.
All three White Flare Hilda prints share the same card number range (085–173 out of 086), so the fastest way to identify which one you’re holding is the finish: the 085/086 is the standard-frame uncommon, the 166/086 is the SR, and the 173/086 is a Special Art Rare with a different illustration entirely.
We currently list a PSA 10-graded copy of this exact print at ¥12,600 (~$82) — a graded single. For more on how Trainer cards like this one grade and sell compared to Pokémon-type chase cards, see our PSA 10 Trainer cards guide.
Full-art Special Rares in modern Scarlet & Violet-era sets tend to attract collectors for a straightforward reason: the artwork treatment stands apart from a set’s standard holo cards, giving Trainer-type SRs like this one their own lane separate from the Pokémon-focused chase slots most buyers hunt for first. For a card built around a recognizable protagonist rather than a generic scene, that distinction is part of why a graded copy holds its own even before factoring in the character’s popularity.
The Uncommon and the Special Art Rare
The 085/086 uncommon is the standard-rarity version of this card and the one most likely to turn up loose in a booster box, sharing the same yuu artwork as the Special Rare in a smaller, non-full-art frame.
The 173/086 Special Art Rare sits at the top of the White Flare print run for this card, and it’s the one exception to the “same artist” pattern — it carries a separate illustration credited to Naoki Saito rather than yuu. Because SAR sits at the top of White Flare’s rarity tiers for this card, this is generally the print collectors are chasing hardest when they say they want “the” Hilda card. For a full breakdown of how White Flare’s chase cards stack up against each other, our White Flare best cards guide covers the set’s top slots in detail.
Both the Special Rare and the Special Art Rare use White Flare’s full-art treatment, unlike the standard-frame uncommon — we currently list a graded PSA 10 copy of the 173/086 Special Art Rare at ¥25,234 (~$164) (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order) alongside the SR.
Beyond White Flare: The Mirror Reprint and Promo Cards
Five months after White Flare, the MEGA Dream ex high-class pack (M2a, 2025-11-28) reprinted Hilda at card number 172/193 — a mirror version of the original uncommon’s yuu artwork, carrying the same effect text into a newer set’s numbering.
Two promotional prints round out the six confirmed Hilda cards. The MP 051/M-P promo carries a Pokémon Card Gym stamp on the card face, and the MC 718/742 print comes from the Starter Decks 100 Battle Collection line released 2025-12-19. Both reuse the original yuu illustration rather than introducing new artwork, and the specific distribution details behind each promo haven’t been confirmed, so we’re not speculating on how either was obtained.
What’s notable across all three of these later prints is that none of them introduce new artwork — the MEGA Dream ex mirror, the Card Gym promo, and the Starter Decks 100 card all reuse yuu’s original White Flare illustration rather than commissioning something new. That makes the White Flare Special Art Rare the only Hilda print with a second illustrator’s take on the character, which is part of what keeps it distinct from the rest of the run.
Hilda’s Unova Roots and Where She Fits Among BW-Era Cards
Hilda is the female protagonist from the Black & White era of the mainline games, and White Flare leans into that identity directly — her Special Rare artwork puts her back in the cap-and-vest outfit players first knew her in. For a broader look at how Black & White-era characters and cards translate into the modern Japanese TCG, our BW-era Japanese Pokémon guide covers the wider trend.
White Flare also released alongside a sister set, Black Bolt (SV11B), on the same day. If you’re deciding which of the two boxes to chase for Trainer-card hits like this one, our Black Bolt vs. White Flare box guide compares what each box is built around.
That paired release isn’t a coincidence — White Flare and Black Bolt were built as a matched pair around the Unova era’s cast. If you’re building a small collection around BW-era Trainer cards specifically, Hilda’s White Flare trio is a natural starting point precisely because all three prints share one set, one release date, and (for two of the three) one illustrator, which makes them straightforward to track down and compare side by side.
Chasing Hilda Through White Flare Booster Boxes
Because all three White Flare Hilda prints come out of the same product, a sealed booster box is the direct route if you want a shot at the uncommon, the Special Rare, or the Special Art Rare alongside the rest of the set’s chase cards.
If you’d rather buy the graded Special Rare outright instead of chasing packs, our PSA 10 Hilda SR listing is the direct route to that exact print.
