Escavalier

Description

This Pokémon trading card features Escavalier from the 2013 Plasma Blast expansion, identified by the set code PLB and card number 61. Released by The Pokémon Company, this print showcases the reverse holofoil treatment, a popular finish that enhances the card's visual appeal for collectors. The card is illustrated by 5ban Graphics and depicts this Stage 1 Pokémon, which evolves from Karrablast. As a Metal-type Pokémon with 100 HP, Escavalier is designed for strategic gameplay within the Pokémon TCG. The card features two distinct attacks: Steamroll, which deals 40 damage to a target and an additional 20 damage to one of the opponent's Benched Pokémon without applying Weakness or Resistance, and Slashing Strike, which deals 80 damage but requires the user to skip their next turn. These mechanics make the card a versatile asset for building competitive decks. Collectors often seek out reverse holo cards for their aesthetic variety, as they provide a shimmering alternative to standard foil cards. Escavalier's presence in this set highlights the evolution line's importance in the Metal type category. The reverse holo finish adds a layer of collectibility, making it a desirable addition for those focusing on specific finishes or completing set collections. With its clear card number and set identification, this card serves as a key reference point for enthusiasts of the Generation V era. Whether for trading, deck building, or display, the Escavalier reverse holo card represents a significant piece of Pokémon card history.
