Lombre

Description

The Lombre Reverse Holo card, numbered 54 in the 2007 Secret Wonders expansion, represents a key Water-type Stage 1 Pokémon for enthusiasts of the Trading Card Game. Created by artist Kouki Saitou, this uncommon card evolves from Lotad and brings a distinct tactical option to the battlefield with its 70 Hit Points. The reverse holo finish offers a shimmering aesthetic that appeals to collectors focused on visual variety within the set. In gameplay, Lombre offers utility through two primary attacks. The Torment attack allows players to flip a coin; if successful, it prevents the opponent from playing Supporter cards during their next turn, providing strategic control. Alternatively, the Absorb attack enables the removal of two damage counters from Lombre, aiding in sustainability during longer matches. With a retreat cost of just one colorless energy, this card remains versatile for maintaining board presence. Collectors often seek out this release to complete their Secret Wonders set or to build decks centered around Water-type strategies. The card’s design and mechanics reflect the era’s approach to balancing offensive power with defensive recovery. For those interested in the history of Pokémon card collecting, this piece serves as a tangible link to the 2007 expansion cycle. Whether you are hunting for a specific parallel or simply expanding your collection, understanding the card’s original context enhances the collecting experience.
