Legendary pairs

Latios and Latias, Dialga and Palkia, Ho‑Oh and Lugia, side by side.

About this collection

Legendary pairs is for people who can’t pick a favourite and refuse to try. Latios gets Latias, Dialga gets Palkia, Ho‑Oh gets Lugia, and nobody has to sit on their own at lunch.

XY Black Star promos from 2013 share the page with special illustration rares from 2025, so it doubles as a quick tour of how card art has changed in twelve years.

The colours

Sky blues and deep navy for the water and space legends, gold and crimson for Ho‑Oh, with the promos’ bright borders holding the page together.

Standout cards

  • Lugia V, Silver Tempest #138, illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, the artist behind many of the earliest Pokémon cards.

  • Ethan’s Ho‑Oh ex, Destined Rivals #230, illustrated by Atsushi Furusawa, who also drew Mega Lucario ex on this page.

  • Latios and Latias, XY Black Star Promos XY79 and XY78: a matching pair from 2013.
