# Riolu (Japanese) #005 — Entry Pack DPt (Dialga)

## Summary

Months ahead of the English Platinum set, which carried Riolu in February 2009, the Japanese Entry Pack DPt (Dialga) put this Riolu in collectors' hands in October 2008. It is a Basic Fighting-type that leaps across the frame mid-kick over a russet, leaf-strewn backdrop. Fans have long liked Riolu as a scrappy pre-evolution of Lucario, and it is a beginner-product pull rather than a chase card. The modelled guide sits at $5.00 with no copies traded in 30 days; no PSA population is on file.
