Lucario

Description

The Lucario Reverse Holo card, numbered 80 in the 2013 Pokémon Legendary Treasures set, presents a classic Stage 1 Fighting type evolution from Riolu. Designed by MAHOU, this release is part of the LTR series and carries a Holo Rare status with a distinctive Reverse Holo finish. Collectors appreciate this card for its clean design and the nostalgic value of the Legendary Treasures expansion, which remains a favorite among enthusiasts of early 2010s Pokémon TCG products. From a gameplay perspective, Lucario boasts 100 HP and offers strategic depth through its Reflexive Retaliation ability. This mechanic allows players to place two damage counters on an opponent's Attacking Pokémon if Lucario is damaged while Active, even if it is Knocked Out. This creates a deterrent for opponents and adds a layer of tactical consideration to battles. The card also features the Fighting Aura Sphere attack, dealing 20 damage to one of the opponent's Benched Pokémon while ignoring Weakness and Resistance for those targets. With a modest Retreat Cost of 1, Lucario provides flexibility in positioning during matches. The Reverse Holo treatment adds visual appeal, making it a desirable addition to any collection. Whether you are building a competitive deck, focusing on set completion, or simply enjoying the lore behind the Pokémon, this card offers a tangible connection to the rich history of the Trading Card Game. The Lucario Reverse Holo stands as a representative piece of the 2013 Legendary Treasures release, embodying the design and gameplay principles that defined that period of the franchise.
