Miraidon

Miraidon's design and name

Its look may draw on a robotic serpentine dragon and lizards such as the anole and fan-throated lizards, with parts that echo sport bikes and other motor vehicles, a contrast to Koraidon's more traditional look. The name may blend the Japanese mirai (future) and raido (ride) with dragon or the dinosaur suffix -don, and may also be meant to sound like me ride on.

Miraidon across the TCG

Miraidon's first set cards came in the 2023 Scarlet & Violet base set: a Rare by Kouki Saitou, Double Rare, Ultra Rare and Hyper Rare ex cards by 5ban Graphics, and a Special Illustration Rare ex by kantaro.
