Groudon

Description

Designed by Yuri Umemura, this card captures the legendary creature known for expanding lands through raging heat and battling titanically with Kyogre. As a Basic stage Pokémon, it offers immediate playability without evolution requirements, making it a staple for collectors building decks around powerful early-game threats. Groudon's primary attack, Volcano Stomp, requires two Fighting energy and deals 80 damage. The attack includes a unique risk mechanic: flipping a coin determines whether the opponent or the player discards the top four cards of their respective decks. This high-risk, high-reward dynamic adds strategic depth to battles, appealing to players who enjoy calculated gambling in their TCG strategies. The retreat cost of four energy highlights Groudon's immobility, emphasizing its role as a stationary powerhouse rather than a versatile attacker. The Holo Rare finish gives Groudon a shimmering presence that stands out in any collection. Whether you are completing the set or seeking a specific legendary Pokémon, this card represents a significant piece of Pokémon TCG history. The combination of iconic lore, unique gameplay mechanics, and premium holo treatment makes SL4 a sought-after item for enthusiasts of the franchise.
