Description
The Shiftry ex card, numbered 97 in the 2007 Power Keepers expansion, stands as a formidable option for collectors of Pokémon Trading Card Game cards. As a Stage 2 Darkness-type Pokémon, this card offers significant strategic depth for gameplay, boasting 140 hit points that allow it to withstand considerable damage in matches. It evolves from Nuzleaf, continuing the lineage of this powerful Grass/Dark species within the TCG universe. For enthusiasts of the Power Keepers set, this Rare Holo EX variant is particularly notable. The holographic finish gives the card a distinct visual appeal that differentiates it from standard rarity cards, making it a desirable addition to any set completionist's collection. Designed by artist Ryo Ueda, the card captures the essence of Shiftry's menacing presence, appealing to fans of the character's design and lore. Beyond its aesthetic qualities, Shiftry ex provides unique gameplay mechanics. Its attacks include a skill-hacking ability that allows players to look at an opponent's hand and copy an attack from a Basic Pokémon or Evolution card found there. This strategic element adds a layer of complexity to deck building, encouraging players to incorporate this card into their lineups for its tactical versatility. Additionally, its Dirge attack deals damage to benched Pokémon sharing the defender's name, offering broad utility in battle scenarios. Collecting this card involves navigating the secondary market for graded and raw copies of the Power Keepers expansion. Because it is part of a specific era of Pokémon TCG history, items from this set hold nostalgic value for long-time fans.
