Description
Released in 2006 as part of the Crystal Guardians expansion, Kyogre ex (Card #95) stands as a significant Water-type Basic Pokémon in the trading card game. Designed by Yasuki Watanabe, this Rare Holo EX card brings the legendary sea deity to the battlefield with a robust 100 HP. Its strategic value lies in its Flotation ability, which dramatically alters retreat mechanics: as long as Kyogre ex has one Energy or less attached, the Retreat Cost for each of your Kyogre ex becomes zero. This allows for swift repositioning during intense matches, providing tactical flexibility that appeals to both nostalgic fans and competitive strategists. The card’s offensive capabilities are delivered through the Hydro Shot attack. By discarding two Energy attached to Kyogre ex, players can deal 70 damage to one of their opponent’s Pokémon. This high-impact move requires careful resource management but offers a powerful way to control the board. As Pokédex entry #382, Kyogre ex embodies the raw power of the oceans, making it a memorable addition to any Pokémon TCG collection. Collectors often seek out this card for its iconic design, holographic finish, and its role in the broader Pokémon narrative. Whether you are building a themed collection around legendary Pokémon or simply appreciate the strategic depth of the Crystal Guardians era, Kyogre ex offers a compelling piece of trading card history. Its enduring appeal lies in its combination of nostalgic charm and functional gameplay, making it a staple for enthusiasts of the franchise.
