Lugia V #186/195 is the alternate-art Lugia from Sword & Shield Silver Tempest, released in November 2022. It shows Lugia flying over a stormy sea at full scene, and it's the card most collectors mean when they talk about the Silver Tempest chase.
Several Lugia cards share names or sets, so check the number. This guide covers the English #186/195 only. The regular Lugia V (#138), Lugia VSTAR, the gold Lugia VSTAR, Lugia ex and older Lugia cards from Neo Genesis or Aquapolis are all separate cards, and none of their sales are used here.
Lugia has a long-standing following that goes back to the Neo era, which helps explain why this card holds attention in a set with several strong alternate arts.

The ocean and sky artwork shows surface scratches and print lines fairly easily, and centering varies between copies. Most graded copies land at PSA 9 or 10, so the difference between those two grades is where most of the price gap sits.

Individual sales vary. Centering, eye appeal, how the listing was run and plain timing all move the final price, so read several recent sales together rather than anchoring on one.
Is Lugia V #186 rare?
As a secret rare, it was a hard pull from Silver Tempest packs. The set itself was widely printed, though, so the card isn't scarce in absolute terms.
The population numbers above show what's actually been graded. A high grade is common for this card, which is part of why PSA 10 and PSA 9 copies trade at clearly different prices rather than PSA 10 being out of reach.
