Gaps mean no observation; guide estimates and asking prices are not completed sales.Released in 2012 as part of the Dragons Exalted expansion, this Maractus trading card represents a distinct chapter in the Pokémon TCG’s strategic evolution. Card number 16 in the set, this Uncommon parallel features the Reverse Holo finish, offering collectors a sleek, shimmering alternative to standard print runs. Maractus serves as a Basic Grass-type Pokémon with 90 HP, designed to support tactical gameplay through its unique attack mechanics. Its primary offensive move, Reinforced Needle, deals 40 damage and increases by an additional 40 damage if a Pokémon Tool card is attached to it. This mechanic encourages players to build their decks around tool support, adding depth to strategic planning. The card also includes Stun Needle, which flips a coin to potentially Paralyze the Defending Pokémon, providing a secondary utility option for control-based strategies. Collectors often seek out the Reverse Holo variant for its distinctive finish and its role in illustrating how tool-based synergies were integrated into the game during this era. For those completing the Dragons Exalted set, this card fills a specific slot in the card sequence, ensuring completeness for enthusiasts who value systematic collection building. The product appeals to both nostalgic fans of the early 2010s era and new collectors interested in the historical design of Grass-type Pokémon. Whether you are a seasoned investor in vintage TCG cards or a hobbyist focusing on specific types, this Maractus card offers a tangible connection to the game’s rich history. By focusing on the card’s design, mechanics, and set origin, collectors can make informed decisions that enhance their long-term collecting journey.
