Great Tusk ex is one of those cards that immediately grabs your attention — and for good reason. This Paradox Pokemon, the ancient form of Donphan pulled from the distant past in the Palar region's lore, cuts an imposing figure with its massive curved tusks and prehistoric, armor-plated build. The ex designation means you're looking at a full-powered, high-HP attacker with the kind of stats that make both competitive players and collectors take notice. It's the sort of card that feels weighty in the hand, and the foil treatment brings out every textured detail of the artwork beautifully.
Great Tusk ex falls into the Special Illustration Rare tier as a secret rare numbered beyond the set's standard count at 246/198, which tells you right away this isn't a card you're pulling every time you crack a pack. These beyond-the-number cards from the Scarlet & Violet era are among the most sought-after hits in the entire set, featuring expanded, immersive artwork that stretches across the card face in a way that feels closer to a painting than a game piece. The Scarlet & Violet Base Set introduced this visual direction for the modern era, and cards like this one are a big reason collectors responded so enthusiastically.
The Scarlet & Violet Base Set itself marks a genuine turning point for the Pokemon Trading Card Game. It launched the ninth generation of the card game alongside the mainline video games, brought with it a fresh rules update, and reintroduced ex Pokemon as the primary powerhouse mechanic — a nod to the original ex cards of the early 2000s while feeling thoroughly modern. For anyone building a complete master set, the special rares and secret rares in this lineup represent the real challenge and the real reward.
On the competitive side, Great Tusk ex has seen play as a Fighting-type attacker with real synergy potential in formats built around the Scarlet & Violet ruleset. But honestly, even players who never sleeve it up for a tournament are drawn to it — the combination of mechanical relevance and stunning foil artwork makes it a centerpiece card whether it lives in a binder or a deck.
This card is a great fit for Pokemon TCG collectors chasing the full Scarlet & Violet Base Set, fans of the Paradox Pokemon designs, competitive players looking for a visually striking version of a Fighting-type staple, or anyone who simply appreciates a gorgeous foil rare that represents a meaningful moment in the game's history.
