Walking Wake (Japanese: ウネルミナモ) is one of the Scarlet & Violet era’s Paradox Pokemon — Dex No. 1009, a Water/Dragon type classified as an „ancient“ Paradox species built around Suicune. In the Japanese TCG it has appeared as an ex card in six confirmed printings across two sets, and the print most people are after is a Special Art Rare covered in detail below.
Paradox Pokemon come in two families: „ancient“ forms built around Pokemon from earlier generations, and „future“ forms built around later ones. Walking Wake is an ancient form, and its design lineage traces to Suicune. The set that introduced it in Japan pairs it with a future-form counterpart in a companion release — a structure covered in more detail further down this guide.
This guide lists every Japanese Walking Wake ex printing, explains how to tell them apart by number and rarity, and points to the exact SAR copy and sealed box we currently have in stock. We ship Japanese sealed product and singles out of Tokyo every week, so the stock referenced here comes straight from our own catalog.
Six Walking Wake ex printings exist across Wild Force (SV5K, 2024) and its later Terastal Fest ex (SV8a) reprint. Our PSA 10 Walking Wake ex SAR [SV5K 094/071] is currently listed at ¥12,875 (Update: derzeit ausverkauft — Nachschub über Quick Order anfragen), and the Wild Force Booster Box — sealed boxes are the direct route to chasing any of Wild Force’s SV5K printings — is currently listed from ¥12,480.
Stock and pricing shown here reflect our own catalog as of August 2026. We don’t publish third-party market prices for printings we don’t carry — those are identified by number and rarity only.
Every Walking Wake ex Card and How to Identify It
Six confirmed Japanese printings, spanning one main set and one high-class-pack reprint:
| Karte | Number | Rarity | Set |
|---|---|---|---|
| Walking Wake ex | SV5K 024/071 | RR | Wild Force |
| Walking Wake ex | SV5K 086/071 | SR | Wild Force |
| Walking Wake ex | SV5K 094/071 | SAR | Wild Force |
| Walking Wake ex | SV5K 099/071 | unconfirmed | Wild Force |
| Walking Wake ex | SV8a 049 | unconfirmed | Terastal Fest ex |
| Walking Wake ex | SV8a 235 | UR | Terastal Fest ex |
All six copies share the same card text: HP220, Water type, Basic Pokemon, ability こんべきはとう (which ignores any effects currently on the opponent’s Active Pokemon when calculating damage), and the attack カタルシスロア for 120+ damage, with a 120-damage bonus if the opponent’s Active Pokemon has a Special Zustand. The English-language equivalent of the set is Temporal Forces. What changes between printings is the illustration, the card number, and the rarity tier — and that’s what separates a common pull from the chase copy covered below.
The rarity tiers themselves follow the standard structure used across modern Japanese Scarlet & Violet sets: RR (Double Rare) is the standard holofoil ex slot most players open; SR (Super Rare) moves to a full alternate-art illustration; SAR (Special Art Rare) is a scarcer, higher-end art treatment that sits above the SR tier; and UR (Ultra Rare) is typically reserved for reprint or secret-rare-range slots in later high-class packs. Walking Wake ex touches four of those tiers across its six printings.
The Wild Force Lineup: RR, SR, SAR, and a Fourth Print
Wild Force (SV5K) released on January 26, 2024, and put Walking Wake ex on four separate card numbers.
The 024/071 RR is the double-rare version most players pull — standard holofoil frame, straightforward to identify. The 086/071 SR steps up to a full alternate-art illustration. A fourth copy sits at 099/071; its card number is confirmed against Wild Force’s own print list, but we haven’t independently verified its individual rarity page, so we’re not assigning it a rarity tier here rather than guess.
Card number is the fastest way to sort a Wild Force Walking Wake — 024, 086, 094, and 099 are four different cards with four different illustrations, even though the attack text and HP are identical across all of them.
For the rest of what Wild Force pulls, our Wild Force best cards guide covers the set’s other chase cards alongside Walking Wake ex.
The Chase Print: Walking Wake ex SAR (094/071)
The 094/071 Special Art Rare, illustrated by Teeziro, is the SAR-tier printing featured in this guide. It carries the same 220 HP, ability, and attack as the RR and SR copies — the difference is entirely in the full-bleed SAR illustration treatment.
We currently carry a graded copy: PSA 10 Walking Wake ex SAR [SV5K 094/071], Wild Force, is currently listed at ¥12,875 (Update: derzeit ausverkauft — Nachschub über Quick Order anfragen). It’s a graded, slabbed copy — if a graded chase card at this price point is the goal, that’s the direct route to it.
Wild Force’s Sister Set: Cyber Judge and Iron Leaves ex
Wild Force didn’t release alone. Its sister set, Cyber Judge (SV5M), came out the same day and carries the other half of the Paradox pairing: Iron Leaves ex, the Virizion-based counterpart to Walking Wake, found at SV5M 016, 084, 093, and 098.
Wild Force and Cyber Judge are designed as a matched pair — both are half-sets released together, each headlined by one Paradox ex. If you’re building out the Cyber Judge side of the release, our Cyber Judge best cards guide covers Iron Leaves ex and the rest of that set’s chase cards.
The Terastal Fest ex Reprints
Walking Wake ex was reprinted once, in the high-class pack Terastal Fest ex (SV8a), on two separate card numbers.
SV8a 049 is a standard reprint of the card at its Terastal Fest ex number. SV8a 235, illustrated by takuyoa, is printed at Ultra Rare — a higher secret-rare-range copy of the same effect, following the same pattern most Scarlet & Violet-era sets use for their reprint slots. Both share the identical HP220 stat line, ability, and attack as every other Walking Wake ex on this list.
Where to Buy Japanese Walking Wake ex Cards
We ship Japanese sealed product and singles worldwide from Tokyo with tracked delivery. Since every Wild Force printing of Walking Wake ex — the RR, the SR, the SAR, and the fourth 099 copy — comes out of the same product, sealed booster boxes are the direct route to the full run.
If you’d rather buy the chase card outright, our PSA 10 Walking Wake ex SAR [SV5K 094/071] is listed at ¥12,875 (Update: derzeit ausverkauft — Nachschub über Quick Order anfragen) as a graded single.
