Description
Released in 2007 as part of the Pokémon Diamond & Pearl set, this Gengar card (#27) represents a significant Stage 2 evolution from Haunter. Illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno, the card captures the essence of the ghostly Pokémon within the Diamond & Pearl era's distinct design language. As a Psychic-type with 110 HP, it offers collectors a tangible connection to the game's lore, where Gengar is known for hiding in shadows and cooling its surroundings. Collectors value this product for its role in the Diamond & Pearl progression, serving as a key component for those building complete sets. The card features two distinct abilities: Colorless Life Drain, which allows for strategic damage placement, and Shadow Dance, which can distribute damage counters and facilitate switching. These mechanics reflect the strategic depth of the trading card game during this period. Whether you are completing the Diamond & Pearl collection or adding a classic character to your display, this card stands as a recognizable piece of Pokémon history.
