Gaps mean no observation; guide estimates and asking prices are not completed sales.Skarmory #96 from the 2012 Boundaries Crossed expansion offers a distinct presence for Pokémon TCG collectors. Printed by Hajime Kusajima, this Uncommon Metal-type Basic card is a staple for builders focusing on the metallic archetype. With 100 HP, Skarmory provides a durable presence on the field, allowing players to utilize its diverse offensive capabilities. The card features two primary attacks: Metal Metal Sound and Swift. Metal Metal Sound requires a coin flip, potentially confusing the Defending Pokémon if successful. Swift deals 70 damage and ignores Weakness, Resistance, and other effects on the target, making it a reliable option against tougher opponents. This versatility makes the Skarmory Reverse Holo a practical addition to any collection. The Reverse Holo finish enhances the card's visual appeal, contrasting the shiny treatment with the matte background. This finish is highly sought after by collectors who appreciate the aesthetic variety within the Boundaries Crossed set. The card's Pokédex number is 227, reflecting its place in the broader Pokémon universe. Skarmory's lore notes that its heavy-looking iron body is actually thin and light, enabling it to fly at speeds over 180 mph. This detail adds depth to the card's identity, bridging the gap between gameplay mechanics and the character's backstory. For investors and hobbyists alike, the Boundaries Crossed set remains a significant release from the Black & White era, and Skarmory #96 stands out as a key Uncommon card. Its combination of reliable damage output and unique treatment ensures it remains a favorite among those completing the set or focusing on Metal-type Pokémon.
