Keldeo · Silver Tempest, what to know.
About the Keldeo card
Keldeo sits at #46 in Silver Tempest, released in November 2022. Silver Tempest is part of the modern English Pokémon TCG era and uses the standard contemporary card frame and rarity tiers. Illustration by Atsushi Furusawa.
The flavor text on the card reads: "When it is resolute, its body fills with power and it becomes swifter. Its jumps are then too fast to follow." Pokédex entries from this era are short and often quirky, written by the original Japanese localization team for a specific stat-block layout that no longer exists in modern cards.
Print variants and how to spot them
Silver Tempest shipped in Holofoil, Reverse Holo, V, VSTAR, Radiant, and Trainer Gallery prints. Radiant cards are a shiny-treatment rarity tier introduced in Astral Radiance. Trainer Gallery cards are numbered TG01 onwards as a parallel subset.
Grading and condition
For graded buyers, modern Rares grade easily but the secondary market for graded modern non-holo Rares is thin. The math rarely justifies submission unless the card is a tournament staple or the Pokémon has independent collector traction.
If you are buying this card
For raw purchases of this card, verify centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface scratches under angled light. Modern Rares are inexpensive in raw and graded condition; submission math rarely works unless the card has independent collector demand.
