Dhelmise

Description

Dhelmise #59 from the 2017 Pokémon TCG expansion Guardians Rising presents a distinctive Psychic-type Basic Pokémon with 120 HP. This Reverse Holo rare card is recognized by collectors for its unique foil treatment that highlights the card name and borders against a textured background. The card’s design is credited to artist Hasuno, contributing to the visual identity of the set. In terms of gameplay mechanics, Dhelmise possesses the Steelworker ability, which enhances the power of allied Metal-type Pokémon by adding 10 damage to their attacks. This support role makes it a strategic inclusion for trainers building decks around metallic Pokémon lineups. Its primary attack, Anchor Shot, requires three energy and deals 70 damage while preventing the defending Pokémon from retreating during the opponent's next turn. This control effect provides tactical value in competitive play by restricting opponent mobility. Collectors interested in set completion often seek this card number to fill gaps in their Guardians Rising collections. The Reverse Holo finish offers a different aesthetic experience compared to traditional foil rares, appealing to enthusiasts who appreciate varied card treatments within a single set. As part of the broader Pokémon trading card ecosystem, cards like this Dhelmise release maintain relevance through nostalgia and ongoing gameplay utility.
