Skarmory

Description

Skarmory #142 is a foundational Metal-type Pokémon card from the Pokémon Obsidian Flames series released in 2023. Designed by Takeshi Nakamura, this Uncommon card provides collectors with a sturdy addition to their catalog. The card features a Pokédex number of 227 and carries the Regulation Mark G, identifying its place within the current legal format cycle. As a Basic Pokémon, Skarmory boasts 120 Hit Points, offering reliable durability during gameplay. The Metal typing allows it to interact effectively with specific energy types and opponent weaknesses. Its attack options include Colorless Peck for 20 damage and MetalMetalColorless Slashing Steel for 120 damage. Players should note the restriction attached to the stronger attack: during your next turn after using Slashing Steel, this Pokémon cannot use it again, adding a strategic layer to its usage. For investors and set builders, this card represents a key piece of the SV3 subset. While Uncommon rarity makes it accessible, the consistent demand for complete Obsidian Flames sets ensures steady interest. The card's design and stats reflect the unique characteristics of the Steel Bird Pokémon, known for its hard feathers. Collectors appreciate the clean presentation and the recognizable artwork that defines this era of the Trading Card Game. Whether you are completing a full set expansion or focusing on Metal-type Pokémon, this card fits seamlessly into any organized binder. The combination of accessible rarity and solid gameplay mechanics makes it a popular choice among hobbyists looking to expand their roster of Steel-type defenders.
