Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX Card Guide: The SM12 Alter Genesis Special Art 100/095

Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX Card Guide: The SM12 Alter Genesis Special Art 100/095

Arceus, Dialga and Palkia sharing one card is already a rare pairing — all three sit at the centre of the Sinnoh creation myth, and the Tag Team GX format put them on a single 280 HP attacker. In Japan, that card exists in four separate prints inside one set, and the most sought-after art treatment of the four is the Special Art (SA) full-art edition numbered 100/095.

This guide covers the Japanese SM12 “Alter Genesis” print run of Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX in full: every one of its four numbered prints, how the set itself is structured, how the Japanese card relates to its English-language counterpart, and where the Special Art sits on the set’s own rarity ladder. We trade Japanese sealed product and graded singles out of Tokyo, so the listings referenced below are our own current and past inventory — not third-party market data.

Key Takeaway

Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX has four Japanese prints in SM12 Alter Genesis (JP release 2019-09-06): a regular RR at 065/095, a Full Art SR at 099/095, the Special Art SR (SA) at 100/095, and a Rainbow Rare HR secret at 112/095. Our SM12 Alter Genesis Japanese Booster Box (¥63,000, ~$396) is the way to chase all four from sealed product. The PSA 10 Special Art 100/095 itself is not listed on our site at the moment; sourcing requests go through Quick Order.

The anchor print of this guide is アルセウス&ディアルガ&パルキアGX (Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX), numbered 100/095, printed as an SR — Special Full Art (SA). It carries 280 HP and a Dragon typing, standard for the Tag Team GX card class. The Special Art treatment was illustrated by Kouki Saitou, which sets it apart from the set’s other Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX prints — each of the four uses a different illustrator, which is one of the clearest ways to tell them apart at a glance.

Our own PSA 10 copy of this exact print, listed here (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order), is presently out of stock. See the where-to-buy section below for live alternatives from the same set and era.

The Set: SM12 Alter Genesis

SM12 “Alter Genesis” (拡張パック「オルタージェネシス」) is a Japanese-language Pokemon TCG expansion released on 2019-09-06. Its main numbered checklist runs to 095, and its secret-rare tier extends the print run past that point — as seen above, Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX alone occupies numbers 099, 100 and 112, all beyond the 095 main-set count.

Alter Genesis is also the JP-exclusive source set for what became the English-language Cosmic Eclipse expansion — more on that relationship in the next section.

For the complete 95-card Alter Genesis checklist with every card and rarity, see our Alter Genesis (SM12) complete card list, and for a set-level look at the box itself, our SM12 Alter Genesis set guide.

Japanese vs English Print

Arceus & Dialga & Palkia GX is not Japan-exclusive as a card — it also appears in the English-language Cosmic Eclipse expansion, which released internationally after Alter Genesis. Alter Genesis is the confirmed Japanese source set for that English print.

This guide covers the four Japanese Alter Genesis prints listed above in detail. The specific English Cosmic Eclipse card number and rarity are not itemised here, since our own inventory and grading focus for this card is the Japanese Special Art 100/095 — readers comparing the two languages directly should treat the English Cosmic Eclipse print as a separate checklist entry rather than a like-for-like match to any single Japanese number above.

Where the Special Art Sits on the Rarity Ladder

Reading the checklist in set order gives a clear rarity progression for this card within Alter Genesis:

  • 065/095 RR — the set’s regular Double Rare tier, the most commonly opened of the four.
  • 099/095 SR — the standard Full Art tier, a step up in scarcity and treatment from the RR.
  • 100/095 SR (Special Art / SA) — a second, alternate-composition full-art treatment of the same SR tier, illustrated separately from the 099/095 print. This is the anchor print of this guide.
  • 112/095 HR — the Rainbow Rare secret, the highest-numbered and structurally scarcest of the four prints in the checklist.

In short: the Special Art at 100/095 is the second-from-top chase print of this card in Alter Genesis, sitting above both standard prints (RR and the 099/095 SR) and below only the 112/095 Rainbow Rare secret. No pull-rate figures for Alter Genesis are published here — the ranking above reflects checklist position and print treatment only.
