Tatsugiri

Description

Classified as a Basic Water-type Pokémon with 70 HP, this card is distinctively rendered with a Reverse Holo finish, offering collectors a shimmering alternative to standard foil treatments. Designed by artist OKACHEKE, the card captures the essence of the small dragon Pokémon known for living inside the mouth of Dondozo, a detail reflected in its Pokédex number 978. For TCG players and collectors, Tatsugiri provides strategic value through its Water Mise en Place attack, which allows players to search their deck for up to two Basic Water Energy cards and attach them to a Basic Pokémon before shuffling. This utility makes it a functional piece for set completion and deck construction. The Reverse Holo variation is particularly sought after for its visual appeal, distinguishing it from the Uncommon rarity base version. As part of the Scarlet & Violet series, this card represents a key moment in the modern era of Pokémon card collecting, appealing to those who appreciate both gameplay mechanics and aesthetic variety. Including this Reverse Holo Tatsugiri in your collection adds a dynamic element to any Scarlet & Violet subset, bridging the gap between competitive strategy and aesthetic appreciation.
