Pokémon Latios & Latias GX 170/181 - Team Up (Italian)

One of the most loved and artistically memorable modern cards: the Latios & Latias GX Full Art from Team Up, where the two legendary Pokemon are depicted in flight with their bodies forming a perfect heart. The composition has become a visual icon of the Sun & Moon era, appreciated by veteran collectors and by newer entrants to the hobby alike.

This example is the Italian-language printing, encapsulated by Beckett as BGS 9. Italian copies in high grade are markedly harder to find than their English or Japanese counterparts, with far smaller populations recorded at this level, which gives the card a scarcity that goes beyond its artwork. The result is a modern card with iconic status, suited to display and to a collection built around language variants of the Sun & Moon block.
