Kartana

Description

Kartana, the legendary Blade Pokédex number 798, takes center stage in the Pokémon Celestial Storm expansion as card number 101. The card is distinguished by its reverse holo finish, which adds a shimmering texture that appeals to collectors who appreciate the visual variety within the set. Designed by Hasuno, this card captures the essence of Kartana’s identity as one of the Ultra Beast life-forms observed cutting down a gigantic steel tower with one stroke of its blade. In gameplay, Kartana offers a unique strategic option with its MetalMetal Divine Paper attack. This move deals 40 damage, but if your opponent has exactly 6 Prize cards remaining, the attack does 90 more damage, making it a potent finisher in the early stages of a match. The retreat cost is just one colorless energy, allowing for flexible positioning on the bench. For collectors, the Kartana Reverse Holo serves as a key piece for those completing the Celestial Storm set. The reverse holo treatment provides a distinct aesthetic compared to the standard rare versions, making it a sought-after addition for enthusiasts building comprehensive collections. Whether you are looking to complete your set, add a unique Metal-type to your collection, or simply appreciate the design of this Ultra Beast, this card stands out for its blend of thematic lore and mechanical intrigue. The Celestial Storm expansion remains a notable chapter in Pokémon TCG history, and this card is an essential component for any dedicated collector's album.
