Description
As card number 72 in the set, this uncommon Trainer card is designed to protect your Pokémon from incoming attacks, making it a valuable asset for collectors who appreciate the game's tactical depth. The reverse holo finish adds a shimmering aesthetic that enhances its visual appeal within the set's design language. Buffer Piece functions as a Pokémon Tool, attaching to one of your Pokémon that does not already have a tool equipped. Its primary benefit lies in its ability to mitigate damage; when an opponent's attack targets the Pokémon with Buffer Piece attached, the damage is reduced by 20 points after applying any relevant weaknesses or resistances. This reduction can be the difference between keeping your key defender in play or seeing it knocked out, adding a layer of strategy to deck building. However, the card's effect is temporary. At the end of the opponent's turn following the turn Buffer Piece was played, it is automatically discarded, requiring careful timing for maximum effectiveness. Collectors of the Dragon Frontiers set often look for this card to complete their collection or to appreciate the unique artwork by Katsura Tabata. The reverse holo variant is particularly sought after for its distinctive finish, which contrasts with the standard uncommon versions. For investors and hobbyists alike, this card represents a tangible piece of the 2006 TCG landscape, offering both nostalgic value and gameplay relevance. Whether you are building a competitive deck or assembling a comprehensive set, the Buffer Piece reverse holo is a notable addition to any Dragon Frontiers collection.
