Dialga

Description

Released in 2008 as card number 4 in the Majestic Dawn expansion, this Pokémon Trading Card Game item features the legendary Pokémon Dialga. Designed by Masakazu Fukuda, the card identifies Dialga as a Basic Metal-type with 100 HP. Collectors appreciate its specific mechanics, which include the Metal Time Shift attack allowing players to draw cards until they hold six, and the Diamond Blast attack that deals 60 damage with a coin flip to potentially add another 20 points. The card requires three Colorless energy to attack and has a retreat cost of three Colorless energy. As a Holo Rare variant, it carries a distinct visual treatment that distinguishes it from common and uncommon cards in the set. This release is a notable entry for those building comprehensive collections of the Diamond & Pearl era. The Majestic Dawn set remains a significant part of Pokémon history, and this card number is often sought after by enthusiasts tracking the series progression. Including this piece in a collection connects hobbyists to the strategic depth and artistic style of mid-2000s Pokémon card design. The combination of Dialga’s lore and its functional gameplay makes it a staple for fans of the franchise.
