Magcargo

Description

The Magcargo Reverse Holo card, numbered 22, is a distinct entry within the 2022 Pokémon Lost Origin expansion. Evolving from Slugma, this Stage 1 Fire-type Pokémon brings a unique thermal threat to the battlefield. With 130 Hit Points, Magcargo offers a balanced presence that can withstand early pressure while charging its more potent moves. The card’s most notable feature is its second attack, Lost Volcano. This move deals 220 damage but requires a significant strategic sacrifice: all Energy attached to Magcargo is sent to the Lost Zone. This mechanic reflects the card’s lore, where its body is as hot as lava and constantly billowing with flame. For collectors, this Reverse Holo variant stands out for its shimmering finish, which contrasts beautifully with the dark, volcanic themes of the Lost Origin set. The Regulation Mark F confirms its print run within that specific era, adding to its catalog identity. Whether you are building a comprehensive set of Lost Origin cards or focusing on Fire-type Pokémon, this card provides both aesthetic appeal and gameplay depth. The combination of Pani Kobayashi’s illustration and the card’s mechanical design makes it a memorable piece for enthusiasts of the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
