Hisuian Pokemon Cards Guide: Every Key Card from Dark Phantasma & Battle Region

Eight Hisuian Cards Worth Knowing

The Hisuian-form run splits cleanly across two Japanese sets released about three months apart in 2022:

S10a Dark Phantasma released May 13, 2022 (071 base cards, 099 total) and is built around Hisuian Zoroark VSTAR as its headline chase card, with a supporting cast of Hisuian-form Pokemon underneath it. S9a Battle Region released three months earlier, February 25, 2022 (067 base cards, 093 total), and carries the VSTAR final evolutions of all three Legends: Arceus starters — Typhlosion, Decidueye, and Samurott. Between the two sets, that’s eight Hisuian-form cards spanning starters, a pseudo-legendary, a Radiant rarity, and a Character Rare.

Card numbering is a useful shortcut when you’re sorting a collection: anything in the S10a range 001–071 or S9a range 001–067 is a base-set printing at its standard rarity, while numbers past those totals belong to the set’s higher-rarity secret/alternate-art block. Several of the cards below — Hisuian Zoroark VSTAR, Hinatsu, and Hisuian Samurott VSTAR among them — have a second printing further up in that secret range, so the same character can show up twice in a checklist at two different price points.

Hinatsu, Listed as Arezu: Our Listed SR

Dark Phantasma’s supporter card at 086/071, illustrated by You Iribi, is a Secret Rare of the Hisui-era character Hinatsu — the Japanese name printed on the card. In our own product listings this card is catalogued under the name Arezu, so if you’re searching our stock or comparing it to other retailers, both names point to the same S10a 086/071 SR.

As a Supporter, Hinatsu lets you search your deck for up to three Evolution Pokemon (excluding Rule Box Pokemon) and add them to your hand, then shuffle your deck — a useful acceleration tool for any deck leaning on multi-stage evolution lines, not just the Hisuian ones. A higher-rarity HR printing also exists in the same set at 095/071.

The Battle Region Trio: Typhlosion, Decidueye, Samurott

Hisuian Typhlosion VSTAR, S9a 029/067

Hisuian Decidueye VSTAR, S9a 045/067

Hisuian Samurott VSTAR, S9a 053/067

Battle Region gave all three Legends: Arceus starter final evolutions a VSTAR printing, and each one leans into a different Hisuian type reassignment.

Hisuian Typhlosion VSTAR (S9a 029/067, illustrated by 5ban Graphics) went from pure Fire to a Psychic-type card at 260 HP. Its VSTAR Power attack, Shadow Blaze, knocks out an opposing Active Pokemon that has exactly four damage counters on it, while its regular attack, Hollow Flame, does 180 damage and spreads three damage counters across the opponent’s Bench.

Hisuian Decidueye VSTAR (S9a 045/067, illustrated by 5ban Graphics) shifted from Grass/Flying to a Fighting-type card at 270 HP. Its VSTAR Power ability, Fuun Star, lets you draw cards until you hold eight, and its attack, Somersault Feather, does 160-plus damage.

Hisuian Samurott VSTAR (S9a 053/067, illustrated by 5ban Graphics) moved from pure Water to a Darkness-type card at 270 HP. Its VSTAR Power, Zangetsu Star, puts four damage counters on an opposing Pokemon, and its attack, Ruthless Blade, does 110-plus damage with a bonus 110 more if the target already has damage counters on it. Samurott also has a UR printing at 091/067 in the same set.

All three retain the standard VSTAR card frame rather than a full-art or alternate-art treatment at their base 029/045/053 numbers.
