Groudon

Description

Identified as card number 84, this release captures the legendary Pokémon known for representing the land. Designed by Mitsuhiro Arita, the card carries a standard rarity level that makes it a staple for many collection strategies. In gameplay, Groudon boasts 130 Hit Points, providing a sturdy foundation for aggressive decks. Its offensive capabilities are defined by two distinct attacks. The Rock Smash attack allows players to flip a coin for a chance to deal an additional 20 damage, adding an element of strategy to early turns. The Break Ground attack delivers 100 damage but requires a trade-off, dealing 10 damage to each of the player's own Benched Pokémon.

For enthusiasts of the Pokémon TCG, this card represents a significant piece of the Primal Clash era. Its high retreat cost of four Colorless energy means positioning is key, rewarding players who can protect it on the field. Whether you are building a themed collection around legendary Pokémon or simply appreciate the competitive design of the 2015 era, this Groudon card remains a noteworthy addition. The combination of Mitsuhiro Arita’s artistic direction and the card’s robust stats ensures it remains a favorite among those who value both aesthetic appeal and mechanical depth in their trading card game collections.
