Card number 109 in a set whose denominator reads 086. That mismatch is the first thing to understand about Seismitoad AR — and it’s a good entry point into how Japanese Art Rare cards are numbered, priced, and graded.
This guide covers everything verified about Seismitoad AR (109/086) from Black Bolt (SV11B): what the card is, where it sits in the set’s rarity structure, what PSA 10 grading means for a single-print card like this one, and where to see our own graded copy. We deal in Japanese Scarlet & Violet-era sealed product and singles out of Tokyo, so the pricing here reflects a card currently listed on our site, not a market survey.

Black Bolt (SV11B): Set Context
Black Bolt is a Japanese main expansion (set code SV11B) released on 6 June 2025. The set’s full card count reaches 174 once every rarity tier is included, though the “/086” printed on Seismitoad’s card number refers to the main-set size before secret and chase-tier cards are layered on top. That’s why a card numbered 109 can exist in a set whose base denominator reads 086 — numbers above the “/086” line sit in the secret/special-rarity range that pushes the set’s true total up to 174.
For the full checklist of what’s in the set, see our Black Bolt (SV11B) card list. If you’re weighing whether to open boxes rather than buy the single, our Black Bolt pull-rate and box-value guide and our Black Bolt vs White Flare box comparison cover that side of the market in detail — we don’t repeat pull-rate figures here since this article is scoped to the Seismitoad AR single and its PSA 10 status.
One naming note worth flagging: “Black Bolt” is also used for a paired English-language expansion released 18 July 2025 that reprints cards from this Japanese set. Whether the Seismitoad AR print carries the same number and rarity tier in that English release isn’t confirmed, so treat the two as related but not interchangeable — this guide covers the Japanese SV11B print specifically.
What “AR” (Art Rare) Means
AR stands for Art Rare, one of several special-rarity tiers used in Scarlet & Violet-era Japanese sets alongside designations like SR and SAR. It sits above a set’s standard rarity slots and below the top secret-rare tiers, and Seismitoad’s AR print is where it lands in Black Bolt.
If you’re new to how Japanese sets stack these tiers — and how AR compares to SR, SAR, and the other letter-coded rarities you’ll see on graded-card listings — our Japanese Pokemon card rarity guide for graded buyers breaks down the full hierarchy in one place.
Seismitoad’s “109/086” is a useful example of a rule that trips up a lot of buyers: once a card number exceeds the printed denominator, it’s in special-rarity territory, not a printing error.
PSA 10 Grading for a Single-Print Card
A PSA 10 designation means the specific card has been submitted to PSA, graded, and certified at their top condition tier, then sealed in their tamper-evident holder. For a card like Seismitoad AR, where the listing is for exactly one certified copy, that grading is what separates the listing from a raw (ungraded) card of the same print: the condition claim is backed by PSA’s own certification rather than a seller’s description.
If you want the background on how PSA, BGS, and CGC grading works before buying a graded Japanese card, our Japanese Pokemon card grading guide walks through the process end to end.
Because there’s only one certified copy of this Seismitoad AR in our stock, we’re not making claims about how many PSA 10 copies exist in total or how often the card comes back gem-mint from grading — we don’t have population data in front of us for this specific card, so we’re sticking to what we can verify: this one copy, this one grade, this one listing.
How Japanese Special Rarities Compare
Seismitoad’s Art Rare treatment sits alongside other special-rarity tiers you’ll see across Japanese Scarlet & Violet-era sets. The three cards below are from different sets entirely — not printings of Seismitoad — but they’re useful side-by-side reference points for what SR and other alternate-art tiers look like when you’re trying to place AR in context.
None of these three are Seismitoad, and none of them are from Black Bolt — they’re shown purely so you can compare how different Japanese special-rarity treatments (SR-tier alternate art, Shining-era foil work) sit relative to the AR tier Seismitoad carries. For the specific Seismitoad AR print itself, see the card image in the overview section above.
