Persian

Description

Released in 2012 as part of the Next Destinies expansion, this Reverse Holo Persian card holds the number 81 in the base set. Designed by Shigenori Negishi, the card depicts a Stage 1 Pokémon that evolves from Meowth and boasts 90 Hit Points. Collectors familiar with the Pokémon Trading Card Game recognize Persian as a Colorless-type unit with a retreat cost of just one energy. Its primary strategic value lies in its attacks: Nasty Plot allows players to search their deck for any card, while Shadow Claw deals 30 damage with a coin flip mechanic that can disrupt the opponent's hand. The Reverse Holo finish adds a distinct shimmering effect to the card's surface, making it a visual standout within the Next Destinies collection. For enthusiasts building out their Next Destinies inventory, this card represents a key component for both gameplay and set completion. Whether you are looking to round out a physical collection or add a functional piece to your deck, this release offers a blend of aesthetic appeal and mechanical utility that defines the era of Pokémon TCG design.
