Suicune Gold Star Pokémon Card Guide: The 2005 Japanese ★ Print (032/106)

Where the Beasts Come From: Gold & Silver

Entei, Raikou and Suicune share one origin story in the 1999 games Pokémon Gold & Silver. In that story lightning struck the Brass Tower 150 years before the games’ events and killed three unnamed Pokémon; Ho-Oh revived them, and the Burned Tower links flame, thunder and rain to Entei (Fire), Raikou (Lightning) and Suicune (Water) respectively.

That shared origin is why our guide lists the three Gold Star cards together, which is the subject of the next section. For the full family, including the Neo, LEGEND and modern prints, the Suicune Japanese cards guide is the single-Pokémon reference on our site.

The Expansion: Golden Sky, Silvery Ocean (PCG4)

Golden Sky, Silvery Ocean is the PCG4 expansion pack; our site also writes the English name as "Gold Sky Silver Sea". It was released on Friday, April 8, 2005. The ADV era began on Friday, January 31, 2003, and the PCG-named series, starting with PCG1 "Flight of Legends", ran roughly from 2003 to 2006 — so this set sits in the later part of that run.

The photograph shows the Entei card numbered 019/106 in the same expansion, so that a reader can see the numbering format and card era of Suicune’s own number. It is not the Suicune, and nothing about its condition or finish should be read across to the Suicune print.

Suicune Across the Eras

Placing the Gold Star in a timeline of Suicune prints shows how much of the Pokémon’s history sits outside the official database. Rows marked "database" are official entries; the others come from our own articles or our listing names.

Reading down the table, the 2005 Gold Star is one of the older Suicune prints a collector is likely to meet, and one of the two prints in this list (with the Neo old-back card) whose existence rests on our guide and our listing name rather than on the database. The Suicune V prints are also covered in the Atsushi Furusawa artist guide, and the LEGEND format in the Pokémon LEGEND cards guide.

A Sealed Box With Suicune Prints

A Gold Star Suicune has no sealed-box route: Golden Sky, Silvery Ocean is not a product we list. If what you want is a Suicune from a box we do list, the Shiny Star V box is the natural match. The official database shows two Suicune prints in S4a — 033/190 and the secret-numbered 221/190 — so a box of that set is the sealed way to open the same Pokémon in a modern print.

Whether a particular print turns up in a box is a matter of the opening; this guide quotes no pull rates. For the set itself, see the Shiny Star V card list and the Shiny Star V best-cards guide.

Grading and Sourcing a Gold Star Suicune

We hold no population data for this print, so this guide gives none, and the card-photo gap means the slab label — set name and number — is the first thing to check on any copy you are offered: check that the label’s set and number match PCG4 and 032/106.

What we can say about sourcing is limited and plain. We do not list the Gold Star Suicune. A request for a specific card that we do not list goes through 빠른 주문, where the product page shows the current terms for anything sourced to order. The back orders in the table above show how we word those listings: a PSA 10 copy is offered as a back order, sourced to order, with the price linked to the product page.

Those gaps are the reason this guide is short on prices. A value figure for a card with no listing and no sourced sale would be invented, and we do not publish one.
