Blastoise & Piplup-GX comes from one Japanese set, but it exists across four separate treatments inside it — a regular rare, two Full Art tiers, and a Rainbow Rare secret. This guide focuses on the Special Full Art print this store lists in PSA 10, and walks through where it sits among its three siblings.
The card is Blastoise & Piplup-GX, No. 070/064, printed as a Special Full Art in the Japanese Enhanced Expansion Pack “Remix Bout” (set code SM11a). This store defines that print as the “SA” — the Special Full Art treatment — and currently lists a PSA 10 copy of it, graded and shipped from Tokyo. Below: the card itself, its full four-print history, the set it comes from, how it maps onto its English Cosmic Eclipse equivalent, and where this print sits among Remix Bout’s rarity tiers.
Blastoise & Piplup-GX SA 070/064 is a PSA 10, currently listed at ¥187,974 (~$1,182). It is one of four documented Japanese prints of this card from the Enhanced Expansion Pack “Remix Bout” (SM11a), and it is the print this store defines as the “SA.” The regular-tier sibling, PSA 10 RR 016/064, is currently listed at ¥21,046 (~$132).

The Card: Blastoise & Piplup GX 070/064 SA
Blastoise & Piplup-GX is a Tag Team-GX card, Water type, with 270 HP. The 070/064 print is illustrated by Akira Komayama, and its position at #070 in a set whose cards are numbered against a 064 denominator places it outside the main numbered run — the standard convention in this generation of Japanese sets for marking a secret or special slot rather than part of the main checklist.
Our own graded copy of this print is currently listed at ¥187,974 (~$1,182), PSA 10.
Print History: Blastoise & Piplup GX Across Remix Bout
Four Japanese prints of this card are documented, all from the same Remix Bout release, running from a regular rare treatment to the Rainbow Rare secret.
The 016/064 print sits inside the set’s main numbered run as a regular RR, illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita. Two further treatments sit outside the main run: the 069/064 Full Art SR, illustrated by 5ban Graphics, and the 070/064 Special Full Art — the “SA” this store lists — illustrated by Akira Komayama. The 076/064 Rainbow Rare (HR), also by 5ban Graphics, completes the set’s treatment of this card. The 069/064 Full Art print is not part of our current catalogue; sourcing requests for it go through Quick Order.
| Number | Tier | Illustrator | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 016/064 | RR | Mitsuhiro Arita | Currently listed (PSA 10) |
| 069/064 | SR — Full Art | 5ban Graphics | Not part of our catalogue |
| 070/064 | SR — Special Full Art (our “SA”) | Akira Komayama | Currently listed (PSA 10, this article’s anchor) |
| 076/064 | HR — Rainbow Rare | 5ban Graphics | Not part of our catalogue |
All four prints come from the same set and release, so there is no first-edition-versus-reprint story here — they are four parallel treatments of one card rather than an original and later reissues.
The Set: Remix Bout (SM11a)
Remix Bout — the Enhanced Expansion Pack — carries the set code SM11a. Its own card-list hub confirms a 73-card checklist, even though most of its cards, including all four Blastoise & Piplup-GX treatments, are numbered against a /064 denominator; the gap between that printed denominator and the full 73-card checklist is where the set’s secret and special slots sit. Cards numbered 065 and above, such as the 069/064, 070/064 and 076/064 prints of this card, fall into that secret-slot range.
The set’s cast of Tag Team-GX cards also includes Charizard & Braixen-GX, which carries the same four-tier print structure and the same “SA” naming for its own Special Full Art treatment — covered separately in our Charizard & Braixen GX SA card guide.
Sealed Remix Bout product — the source of all four prints of this card, including the SA — is available as the SM11A Remix Bout Japanese Booster Box currently listed at ¥141,750 (~$891). For the full 73-card checklist, see our Remix Bout (SM11a) card list; for a broader look at the set’s chase cards, see our Remix Bout pull-rates hub.
Where This SA Sits Among Japanese Rarity Tiers
Within Remix Bout, the four documented prints of this card span the set’s rarity ladder from the regular RR through two Full Art tiers to the Rainbow Rare secret. The Special Full Art print at 070/064 — the one this store lists and calls the “SA” — sits above the 016/064 RR and alongside the 069/064 Full Art print, distinguished by its own alternate art from illustrator Akira Komayama rather than 5ban Graphics’ treatment of the 069/064 print. The 076/064 Rainbow Rare occupies the top of the set’s secret-slot range for this card.
The same Special Full Art naming and treatment appears elsewhere in Remix Bout — the set’s other Tag Team-GX SA, PSA 10 Charizard & Braixen GX SA 068/064, is currently listed at ¥211,928 (~$1,333).
We do not currently list the 069/064 Full Art or 076/064 Rainbow Rare prints of this card; sourcing requests for either go through Quick Order.
