What Is Katy SR 097/078?
The official database lists Katy (カエデ) 097/078 as a Super Rare — SR — Supporter card from 拡張パック「バイオレットex」 (Expansion Pack “Violet ex”, set code SV1V). The official product page gives a Japanese release date of January 20, 2023. As a Trainer card, it carries no HP, type or stage — the database lists it simply as a Supporter.

This card is illustrated by Akira Komayama and carries the regulation mark G, read off the card image, with a copyright year of 2023. カエデ is the Japanese name behind our “Katy” listing label.

The official Japanese text reads: “このカードを使ったら、自分の番は終わる。自分の手札をすべて山札にもどして切る。その後、山札を8枚引く。” “サポートは、自分の番に1枚しか使えない。” Our English rendering: “If you play this card, your turn ends. Shuffle your hand into your deck, then draw 8 cards.” “You may play only 1 Supporter card during your turn.”
The rendering above is our own translation of the Japanese and is not an official English release.
The Other カエデ Print: 074/078 U
The official database lists exactly two カエデ prints, both from SV1V and both illustrated by Akira Komayama — the SR covered in this guide and a 074/078 Uncommon:
Both prints are credited to Akira Komayama in the official database, and both share the January 20, 2023 SV1V release date, since they come from the same expansion pack release. There is no SAR print of this Supporter in the official database, despite SV1 being an era that produced SAR chase cards for some other Supporters.
| Number | Rarity | Illustrator | Set | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Katy SR (this card) | 097/078 | SR | Akira Komayama | SV1V “Violet ex” |
| Katy U | 074/078 | U | Akira Komayama | SV1V “Violet ex” |
097/078 SR and 074/078 U are told apart by card number and rarity (SR vs U), not by artist, since the official database credits Akira Komayama as illustrator on both prints. For the wider category, our PSA 10 Japanese Trainer Cards guide and Female Pokémon Trainer Cards guide cover Supporters from other sets in the same format, and our Violet ex (SV1V) pull rates & best cards guide covers the set’s wider chase list.
