Chimecho

Description

This Reverse Holo variant provides a shimmering finish that enhances the visual appeal of the card, making it a sought-after piece for those building comprehensive collections of the era. As a Basic Psychic-type Pokémon, Chimecho brings unique strategic value to the table with its 60 HP and a modest retreat cost of one colorless energy. The card’s abilities are central to its collector appeal. The first attack, Colorless Chime, allows the player to search the opponent's discard pile for a Supporter card and use its effect, providing a powerful disruption tool. The second attack, Psychic Boom, deals 10 damage multiplied by the number of Energy cards attached to the defending Pokémon, offering flexible damage output based on board state. Designed by Miki Tanaka, the card captures the essence of Chimecho’s ghostly balloon form, a design choice that resonates with fans of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. For investors and hobbyists alike, the Hidden Legends set holds a special place in Pokémon TCG history. It was one of the first sets to feature Pokémon from the Hoenn region, bridging the gap between the Johto and Hoenn eras. Chimecho #17 stands out due to its dual-attack profile and the distinctive Reverse Holo treatment, which was a premium feature for Rare cards in this set. Collectors often seek this card to complete their Hidden Legends base set or as a standalone piece for its nostalgic value and gameplay utility. Whether you are looking to enhance your deck with a disruptive Supporter search or simply appreciate the artistry of early 2000s card design, this Chimecho Reverse Holo offers a tangible connection to the Golden Age of Pokémon TCG.
