Lombre

Description

The 2006 Pokémon Crystal Guardians Lombre Reverse Holo card #37 offers collectors a distinct piece of TCG history featuring the Water-type Stage 1 Pokémon. Designed by Kagemaru Himeno, this Uncommon card showcases the reverse holo finish that has become a hallmark of the Crystal Guardians set. Lombre, the second stage of Lotad, brings specific strategic value to the game with its 70 HP and unique attack options. For players and investors alike, this card represents a tangible connection to the mid-2000s Pokémon expansion era. The Plunder attack allows users to discard all Trainer cards attached to the Defending Pokémon before dealing 20 damage, offering a disruptive gameplay mechanic. Meanwhile, the Wave Splash attack deals 50 damage for a manageable cost. These mechanics define the card's identity within the broader Crystal Guardians collection. Collectors often seek out Lombre #37 for its nostalgic appeal and the aesthetic contrast provided by the reverse holo treatment against the standard card background. The card's designation as Uncommon makes it a frequent yet rewarding find for those tracking the full Crystal Guardians print run. Its enduring presence in the community highlights the lasting impact of Pokémon's design and gameplay evolution during this period. Whether you are a long-time fan of the franchise or a new collector exploring the hobby, Lombre from Crystal Guardians remains a significant entry point.
