Umbreon is a Dark-type Eeveelution from the Pokémon franchise, first introduced in Pokémon Gold and Silver (Generation II, 1999). It evolves from Eevee at night when high friendship levels are met, symbolizing nocturnal protection with its glowing red rings. Umbreon V #189 is the Alternate Full Art variant from Sword & Shield - Evolving Skies, featuring stunning artwork by kir0s that captures Umbreon in a moonlit, ethereal pose, making it one of the set's most iconic chase cards.
August 27, 2021, in the English Sword & Shield - Evolving Skies set worldwide
Condition. Check for centering issues on the intricate moon and ring details, surface scratches on the glossy holo pattern, edge whitening from sleeves, and print lines on the alt art background; common flaws include roller marks and minor corner dings due to high handling demand
Storage. Use semi-rigid holders or top-loaders with sleeves in a cool, dry environment away from sunlight to prevent holo oxidation; avoid stacking without dividers for gem mint preservation
Authenticity. Verify holo pattern alignment and UV-reactive ink on rings; fakes often have blurry artwork, incorrect font weights, or mismatched set symbols; cross-reference with official graded/graded population reports and use TCGPlayer verified sellers
