# Technical Machine: Evolution (Japanese) #160 — SV8a: Terastal Fest ex

## Summary

Japan's Terastal Fest ex set arrived in December 2024, more than a year after the English Paradox Rift release that carried the same Technical Machine: Evolution. The Japanese card is a bulk common, yet its holofoil pattern gives it unusual shine for the slot. A glowing green disc floats against a swirl of light, and that simple object is the whole picture. Treat it as a cheap Japanese reprint of a Trainer that ran in plenty of decks. A $0.16 modelled guide with no copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file.
