The Verified Ortega Secret Rare: SV8a #189
Ortega’s Japanese name is オルティガ, and the verified card is classified as a Trainer – Supporter. Its translated effect is: look at the opponent’s hand, choose 1 card from it, and return that card to the bottom of the opponent’s deck. The opponent may then draw a card. The print carries regulation mark G.
SV8a #189 — Terastal Festival ex
Printed as a Secret Rare, card 189, in the high-class pack Terastal Festival ex (set code SV8a), with artwork credited to Teeziro. This is the print inside our currently listed Terastal Festival ex box.
Terastal Festival ex
The verified print comes from Terastal Festival ex (テラスタルフェスex), a Japanese high-class pack with the set code SV8a, officially released in Japan on December 6, 2024. The set totals 237 cards, with 50 Secret Cards spread across the SR, SAR, and UR tiers, and no AR cards. Ortega is printed as card 189/187 in the Secret Rare tier. Our full SV8a card list covers all 237 cards, and our Terastal Festival ex pull-rates and best-cards hub covers other cards from the set.
Chase Prints and What Makes Terastal Festival Collectible
Ortega’s Secret Rare sits inside a set that put 50 cards into its Secret Rare, Special Art Rare, and Ultra Rare tiers — a wide top end for a single high-class pack. A couple of the set’s other Secret Rare pulls give a sense of the range collectors are chasing alongside Ortega:
These two sit at different points in the set’s rarity structure: Friends of Paldea (195/187) is numbered above the base 187-card run, the same Secret Rare tier as Ortega’s #189. Umbreon Master Ball Mirror (092/187) is numbered inside the base run rather than above it — it’s a special reverse-holo foil treatment applied to a base-numbered card, not a numbered-above-the-set Secret Rare like Ortega or Friends of Paldea. Both are illustrated separately (Friends of Paldea SR is credited to Cona Nitanda), and both have PSA 10 examples currently listed on our site — useful reference points for where Ortega’s own Secret Rare sits within the set’s rarity structure, even though we don’t currently list a graded Ortega single itself.
