Durant

Description

The 2011 Noble Victories Reverse Holo Durant card offers collectors a distinct metallic finish for this Basic Metal-type Pokémon. Designed by Masakazu Fukuda, this Uncommon release features the Pokémon in its role as a formidable opponent within the Trading Card Game. Durant stands out as a Basic stage card with 70 HP, providing a solid foundation for Metal-type decks. Its unique attack, Metal Devour, allows players to discard the top card of the opponent's deck for each Durant in play, creating strategic pressure. The secondary attack, Vice Grip, deals 30 damage and offers a reliable alternative for consistent damage output. With a retreat cost of only one Colorless energy, this Pokémon remains mobile on the field. For collectors, the Reverse Holo finish adds a special visual appeal that distinguishes this print from the standard version. As an Uncommon rarity card, it serves as a key piece for those completing the Noble Victories set. The card captures the essence of the 2011 release, featuring the Pokédex number 632 and flavor text that highlights the Pokémon's steel armor defense against Heatmor. Whether you are building a competitive deck or focusing on set completion, this card provides both mechanical utility and aesthetic value. The Reverse Holo treatment ensures that each copy stands out in a binder or display case. Collectors appreciate the combination of the Metal type's strategic depth and the unique foil pattern that defines this parallel variant. As part of the growing landscape of Pokémon collectibles, this card remains a staple for enthusiasts of the 2011 era. ## Sources - Pokémon TCG Catalog - Noble Victories Set Data —.pokemon.com/en-us/sets/noble-victories
