Iris

Description

Released in 2013 as part of the Plasma Blast expansion, card number 101 identifies this Pokémon Trading Card Game entry featuring the character Iris. As a Trainer card, it functions as a Supporter, providing strategic utility during gameplay rather than serving as a Pokémon unit. The Ultra Rare designation indicates its status within the set's distribution hierarchy, making it a notable target for collectors seeking high-rarity pieces from this era. The card’s primary mechanical value lies in its ability to scale with the flow of the match. Its effect allows your Pokémon’s attacks to deal an additional 10 damage to the Active Pokémon for each Prize card your opponent has already taken. This creates a dynamic where the card becomes increasingly potent as the game progresses and the opponent draws closer to victory. The effect applies before calculating Weakness and Resistance, maximizing the impact of the bonus damage. For collectors, Iris represents a connection to the Unova region storyline and the specific design language of the 2013 Plasma Blast set. Collectors often seek this card to complete their Plasma Blast collections or to acquire a piece of the series' history that highlights the character's development. Whether you are building a set of Plasma Blast cards or looking to add a unique Supporter to your collection, this Iris card offers both nostalgic value and distinct gameplay mechanics. The card's status as an Ultra Rare makes it a significant addition for those who appreciate the detailed artwork and strategic depth of the Pokémon TCG.
