Shining Arceus CSMJC 009 Near Mint Chinese Pokemon Card

Shining Arceus CSMJC 009 is a Shining Holo single card from the Chinese Simplified (S-Chinese) Pokémon TCG Mythical & Legendary Dream Shine Collection (CSMJC). Arceus, the Alpha Pokémon and creator deity of the Pokémon universe according to Sinnoh mythology, is depicted in its Shining form — a variant with alternate shiny colouring and a distinctive rainbow-tinged holofoil treatment. The CSMJC set is a Chinese-exclusive premium collection featuring Mythical and Legendary Pokémon in Shining and special treatments.

Shining cards from the CSMJC series are among the most prestigious and sought-after Chinese regional Pokémon TCG cards. The Shining Holo treatment features an eye-catching foil pattern across the card's artwork, and the card back and stock are specific to this premium Chinese collection. These cards were produced for the Chinese market and are rarely encountered in European or Swiss card shops, making them genuine regional rarities for Western collectors.

Arceus holds the highest regard in Pokémon lore as the creator of the Pokémon world itself, and its Shining form in the CSMJC set is a premium collectible befitting its legendary status. Card number 009 in the CSMJC set is among the standout pieces in this exclusive collection. Gmenswisscard stores all CSMJC Shining cards in protective sleeves and ships in padded packaging from Switzerland. Near Mint condition unless otherwise noted. A top-tier piece for Arceus fans and Chinese TCG premium collectors.

About This Card

This Near Mint Chinese Pokémon card is a premium single from the S-Chinese Pokémon TCG market. Chinese-language Pokémon cards feature distinct card backs, Chinese text, and regional set numbers that set them apart from Japanese, English, and other regional print runs. Collectors around the world actively seek S-Chinese singles for their regional uniqueness and the additional scarcity that comes from limited international distribution. Shining Arceus is a beloved Pokémon with a dedicated fanbase, and this card from its respective set is a sought-after piece for type collectors, set collectors, and fans alike. Near Mint condition means the card shows no signs of wear visible to the naked eye — corners are sharp, surface is clean, and artwork is pristine.

Collecting Chinese Pokémon TCG Cards

The Chinese Simplified (S-Chinese) Pokémon TCG is a distinct regional market with its own print runs, set releases, and exclusive products. Cards are produced under license by The Pokémon Company International for the mainland Chinese market and feature traditional Simplified Chinese characters throughout. S-Chinese cards share the same gameplay rules as international editions but carry unique regional card backs and numbering schemes.

For international collectors, S-Chinese Pokémon cards offer a fascinating avenue to build regional variant collections. Sets like CBB1C, CBB2C, CBB3C (Gem Pack Vol.1/2/3), CSHC, and various CS-series releases are only officially distributed in China — making them genuinely difficult to source outside of Asia. Gmenswisscard bridges this gap by importing directly and offering these cards to European and global collectors with reliable, trackable shipping from Switzerland.

Card Condition: Near Mint

All cards sold by Gmenswisscard are individually inspected before dispatch. Near Mint (NM) condition means the card exhibits no wear visible under normal examination: corners are clean and sharp, edges are straight, the surface is free of scratches or scuffs, and the card back shows no blemishes. We handle all cards with clean hands or cotton gloves to avoid surface contamination, and cards are immediately placed in protective penny sleeves after inspection.

If you plan to grade this card through PSA, BGS, CGC, or another grading service, Near Mint condition typically corresponds to raw grades in the 8–9 range depending on centering and print quality. We recommend examining the card carefully upon receipt and submitting promptly for grading if that is your intention.
