Paldea Fates arrived in 2024 as a special set celebrating the Scarlet and Violet era of Pokémon. This release stands out for its focus on Shiny variants and alternative artwork, representing the hobby's continued evolution toward premium, visually distinct products that appeal to both players and collectors seeking rare visual presentations. Squawkabilly ex appears here as a Shiny Ultra Rare, capturing this loud and vibrant Paldean Pokémon in its alternate coloration. Collectors are drawn to Shiny cards for their rarity and eye-catching appearance, and the ex designation marks this as a mechanically significant card that bridges competitive interest with collecting appeal.
