Scrafty

Description

The Pokémon Scrafty card #86 from the 2013 Plasma Storm set represents a formidable Stage 1 Darkness-type Pokémon in the Trading Card Game. Evolving from Scraggy, this card brings a distinct mechanical advantage to gameplay through its Reinforced Headbutt attack. If a Pokémon Tool card is attached to Scrafty, this attack deals an additional 50 damage, rewarding strategic board positioning and resource management. The card's Pokédex entry highlights its protective nature, noting that it pulls up its shed skin to defend itself while delivering powerful kicks, a trait mirrored in its ability to disrupt opponents by forcing them to switch their Defending Pokémon with a Bench Pokémon via Darkness Kick Away. Designed by 5ban Graphics, the card carries a Rare rarity designation within the Plasma Storm expansion. Collectors often seek out Scrafty for its clean artwork and solid utility in deck construction. The card features a retreat cost of only 1, allowing for flexible movement on the field, while maintaining a sturdy 90 HP. This balance of offensive power and defensive utility makes it a staple for many Darkness-type strategies. Whether you are building a competitive deck or expanding your collection of rare cards, Scrafty provides both aesthetic appeal and functional depth. Completing sets or hunting for specific Pokémon types often leads collectors to appreciate the nuanced abilities found in cards like this one.
