Release date, card count, chase cards, value and how it compares with the Diamond & Pearl era.
Bastiodon the Defender Half Deck sits in the Diamond & Pearl era of the Japanese Pokémon TCG as a deck product rather than a booster expansion. It was released on March 2, 2007 under the set code DP2, and its card list runs to 14 catalog printings. The name points to the Shieldon line, with Shieldon among its cards, and the list also draws on Girafarig, Magmar, Armor Fossil, Magmortar and Magby, so it reads as a small, ready-built product built around a defensive theme.
There is no deep rarity ladder to climb in Bastiodon the Defender Half Deck, since a half deck is built to be played out of the box. The cards that carry the most value are Girafarig in first place, then Magmar, Armor Fossil, Magmortar and Magby. Shieldon, the card the deck is named around, sits 6th, so the value here follows the supporting cast and not the title Pokémon. With so few printings, the handful of top cards define what the product is worth.
Bastiodon the Defender Half Deck was released March 2, 2007.
Bastiodon the Defender Half Deck has 14 cards.
Bastiodon the Defender Half Deck is part of the Diamond & Pearl era.
As of October 2026, Bastiodon the Defender Half Deck is best placed by its kind and its neighbours. At 14 catalog printings it is far smaller than a full Diamond & Pearl expansion, which runs to well over a hundred cards, and it is a preconstructed product with a fixed list. It followed Entry Pack, released October 27, 2006, and came before Dialga LV.X Constructed Standard Deck, released July 5, 2007. Its cards reached English players through Mysterious Treasures, which came out on August 1, 2007, 4 months after the Japanese release, with 12 cards shared between the two.

Completing the Bastiodon the Defender Half Deck card list means finding all 14 catalog printings, of which 6 are priced. Because so few cards are priced and value gathers in a short list led by Girafarig, Magmar and Armor Fossil, those few cards shape the cost of finishing the run far more than the rest of the list does. As a compact deck product it is a short checklist, and the lower cards are filler beside the handful that carry the value.
