# Shiftry (Japanese) #003 — Gift Box (Latios)

## Summary

Shiftry has long been the villain-coded Hoenn favourite, a Grass and Dark brute with a tengu's leafy fan-hands and a glare to match, and the Japanese card captures that scowl mid-lunge against a pale, windswept backdrop. This Japanese Gift Box (Latios) release came in November 2003, after English-speaking players had already seen Shiftry in Sandstorm that September, and the Pokémon's standing carries the demand. The sold median sits at $5.00 with no copies traded in 30 days; no PSA population is on file.
