Garbodor’s Japanese card history runs from a plain Common slot in the older BW2 set to an Art Rare treatment in 2023’s SV4K Ancient Roar and later releases — at least 29 confirmed Japanese prints, per Limitless TCG’s full listing as of September 2026, of the same Poison-type species from the video games.
This guide maps the verified Garbodor prints available in our source data: which set each detailed card came from, what rarity tier it sits in, who illustrated it, and which sealed Japanese box contains the two SV4K prints. No single Garbodor card is currently listed on our site, so instead of pointing at a card that isn’t there, this guide points at the sealed product: the SV4K Ancient Roar Booster Box carries both the Uncommon and Art Rare Garbodor prints from that set, and we ship it from Tokyo with tracked delivery.
Garbodor’s print run also tracks a design pattern worth knowing before you buy. Across the 16 prints detailed below, the rarity band shifts from plain Common and Uncommon slots in the older BW7, BW2, XY and XY9 sets to full alternate-art Art Rare treatments in the newer SV4K and SV11W sets — the same Pokemon, given a higher rarity slot as the set design language moved on.
Garbodor (ダストダス) has at least 29 confirmed Japanese prints, per Limitless TCG as of September 2026, spanning five eras of Japanese sets. The two SV4K prints — Uncommon #50 and Art Rare #75 — both come out of the SV4K Ancient Roar Booster Box, currently listed at ¥10,192 (~$64). No single Garbodor card is currently listed on our site; browse the wider Japanese Pokemon booster box collection for sealed product, and sourcing requests for a specific print go through Quick Order.

Japanese Garbodor Prints Verified in This Guide

The Scarlet & Violet Era: Ancient Roar and Terastal Festival ex
SV4K, Japanese name 古代の咆哮 / Ancient Roar, released 27 October 2023 as a 94-card set. Garbodor sits at two numbers in it: #50, a standard Uncommon illustrated by Aya Kusube, and #75, an Art Rare illustrated by Shinya Komatsu. Both correspond to the same English card, Paradox Rift’s Garbodor at #204 (with a further #117 print in that set). Our own SV4K Ancient Roar Booster Box is where both of these prints come from — it’s currently listed at ¥10,192 (~$64).
SV8a carries a third Scarlet & Violet-era Garbodor at #95, again illustrated by Aya Kusube. Its rarity tier is not stated here; the card itself and its EN equivalent (Paradox Rift #204/#117) are the verified details used in this guide.
SV4K’s other pulls are worth knowing too: the set’s featured Supporter is covered in our Mela Supporter card guide, and another chase pull from the same box is covered in our Sandy Shocks ex Japanese card guide.
Later Prints: Ninja Spinner, the MC Compilation and White Flare
M4 (Ninja Spinner) carries Garbodor at #55, a standard Uncommon illustrated by HYOGONOSUKE, corresponding to the English Chaos Rising #57. Further verified prints in this group include MC #466, issued through the MC compilation product rather than a numbered booster-pack rarity slot (illustrated by OKUBO), and a pair from SV11W (White Flare) — a standard Uncommon at #57 (also OKUBO) and an Art Rare at #139 (illustrated by Gapao). All three of these correspond to the English White Flare #60/#141.
The Sword & Shield Era: Fusion Strike, Vivid Voltage and Rebel Clash
The Sword & Shield-numbered “S” sets carry the largest single cluster of Garbodor prints in this guide. S8 (Fusion Arts) #63, shown above, is a standard Uncommon illustrated by sui, corresponding to the English Fusion Strike #169. The SI compilation product carries the same English equivalent at SI #280 (also illustrated by sui), plus a second SI print at #281 labelled Garbodor V and illustrated by Uta, corresponding to Evolving Skies #190/#100. Two more Uncommon prints fill out the era: S4 (Vivid Voltage) #74, illustrated by Hasuno, and S2 (Rebel Clash) #67, illustrated by AKIRA EGAWA, corresponding to Rebel Clash #118 (SP #25 in the promo numbering).
The XY and Black & White Eras: The Oldest Verified Prints
The oldest confirmed Garbodor prints detailed here sit in the XY and Black & White-numbered sets. XY9 (Rage of the Broken Heavens) #40/080 is a Psychic-type TCG card illustrated by Kouki Saitou and corresponds to the English BREAKpoint #57; it was reprinted in Japan as The Best of XY #50/171. Two Common-tier prints round out this detailed early group: BW7 (Plasma Gale) #37, illustrated by 5ban Graphics, and BW2 (Red Collection) #31, credited to illustrator “match.” Beyond these sixteen detailed prints, Limitless TCG’s full listing brings the confirmed Japanese total to at least 29 as of September 2026; this guide does not assign the unlisted prints to particular eras.
Chase Prints and What Makes Them Collectible
Garbodor’s rarity spread runs from plain Common and Uncommon slots up to Art Rare, and the tier itself is what separates the prints discussed here — not any claim about pull frequency, which this guide doesn’t state as fact. The two Art Rare prints, SV4K #75 and SV11W #139, occupy separate rarity slots from the numbered Uncommon prints in their respective sets (SV4K #50 and SV11W #57). This guide does not treat those paired slots as identical artwork.
The Garbodor V print at SI #281 is collectible for a different reason: among the sixteen prints detailed in this guide, it’s the sole one carrying the V mechanic, setting it apart structurally from the rest, which are all standard non-Rule Box prints. For the set-wide pull picture around SV4K’s other chase cards, see our SV4K Ancient Roar pull rates and best cards guide.
Which Japanese Box to Open for Garbodor
The SV4K Ancient Roar Booster Box is currently listed at ¥10,192 (~$64). The Uncommon #50 and Art Rare #75 Garbodor prints both come from that set.
None of the other twelve sets carrying a Garbodor print — SV8a, M4, MC, SV11W, SI, S8, S4, S2, XY, XY9, BW7 and BW2 — currently have a booster box listed on our site. For those prints, or for a graded Garbodor single, sourcing requests go through Quick Order. If you’re weighing the SV4K box against its sibling Scarlet & Violet-era releases, our SV4A vs SV4K vs SV4M box comparison guide breaks down how the three compare.
