5 facts about this card
Hitmontop #72 is part of Brilliant Stars, the Sword & Shield expansion that introduced the VSTAR mechanic, giving even an uncommon like this a place in one of the era’s most celebrated sets.
This card’s flavor text is lifted from Hitmontop’s Pokédex entry in Pokémon Sword, tying the card directly to the modern games while spotlighting the species’ signature spinning, drill-like kicks.
Although collectors know it from Brilliant Stars, this Hitmontop was first released in Japan in Start Deck 100, giving the English card a neat connection to a preconstructed product origin rather than debuting straight in boosters.
Its attack Cyclone Kick wasn’t brand-new here—the move had appeared earlier on Lucario-GX—so this card quietly reuses a name with Fighting-type pedigree that longtime TCG players may recognize.
Illustrated by ryoma uratsuka, this card appeals to artist-focused collectors who enjoy tracing modern Sword & Shield commons and uncommons by illustrator as much as by set number.
