Korrina

Korrina in the anime: the hunt for Lucarionite

In Pokémon the Series: XY, Korrina meets Ash and his friends in Mega Revelations!, where she has vowed to win 100 battles in a row before heading to Geosenge Town for the Mega Stone her Lucario needs. The group travels with her until The Bonds of Mega Evolution! In the cave holding the Lucarionite, a Blaziken nearly beats Lucario, until the friends' encouragement helps Korrina turn the fight around and Gurkinn steps out of the shadows to concede. Her newly Mega Evolved Lucario then loses control of its Aura, and she spends several episodes learning to master it.

Ash later challenges her in Showdown at the Shalour Gym! He beats her Mienfoo and Machoke, she Mega Evolves Lucario, and Pikachu finally defeats Mega Lucario to win him the Rumble Badge. She returns in Pokémon Journeys: The Series, helping Ash's newly evolved Lucario get a Lucarionite of its own.

Korrina on cards: from Furious Fists to Battle Styles

Her card run opens in Furious Fists (August 13, 2014) with an Uncommon Supporter (#95) illustrated by Ken Sugimori and an Ultra Rare full art version (#111) illustrated by Yusuke Ohmura. Korrina's Focus followed seven years later in Battle Styles (March 19, 2021) as an Uncommon (#128) illustrated by kirisAki, an Ultra Rare (#160) and a Secret Rare (#174), the latter two both by Taira Akitsu.

How Korrina's two Supporters compare

Her two Supporters land seven years apart, one in the XY era and one in Sword & Shield's Battle Styles. The Furious Fists card comes in two versions (the Sugimori Uncommon and Ohmura's full art), while Korrina's Focus comes in three, with a Secret Rare on top of its Uncommon and Ultra Rare, so a complete run of her cards is five pieces across two sets.
