Description
Designed by artist Hajime Kusajima, this Basic Water-type Pokémon card is a staple for enthusiasts of the early 2000s Pokémon Trading Card Game era. The card features a distinct holo finish that catches the light, making it a visually appealing addition to any collection. In gameplay, this card offers a unique defensive mechanic. Its Water Immunity ability prevents the attachment of Water Energy cards from the hand, a strategic twist that distinguishes it from other Ice-type options. Its attacks include Colorless Freeze Solid, which can retrieve Water Energy from the discard pile, and Ice Cyclone, which deals damage to benched Pokémon based on a coin flip. For collectors, the Skyridge set holds a specific place in Pokémon card history. This release is sought after by those focusing on the Generation III era of the TCG.
