Lugia V
Silver Tempest · #186/195 · Alternate Art

The card
Why it’s epic
One of the most beloved illustrations of the Sword & Shield era: kawayoo’s alternate art shows Lugia erupting from a storm cloud over a lone sailor’s boat, a tiny human moment against a guardian deity. It tells a whole story in a single frame. Lugia V also anchored one of the era’s defining competitive decks — the Lugia VSTAR / Archeops engine that dominated tournament tables through the Silver Tempest season. Silver Tempest (November 2022) was the final main set of the Sword & Shield series, and this card is its signature art.
