Description
Released in 2003 as part of the Pokémon Skyridge set, the Gyarados reverse holo card (#11) represents a key Stage 1 Water-type evolution from Magikarp. Designed by Kimiya Masago, this rare card features the unique Flame Vapor ability, allowing players to discard an Energy card from the opponent's Pokémon when Gyarados evolves into play. Its WaterColorlessColorlessColorless attack, Dragon's Vengeance, deals 50 damage but increases to 100 if Gyarados has 7 or more damage counters, offering strategic depth for collectors and players alike. The reverse holo treatment adds a shimmering effect that enhances the card's visual appeal, making it a standout piece for those building collections of rare Skyridge cards. As a low-numbered card in the set, Gyarados remains a focal point for enthusiasts seeking to complete their Skyridge portfolio or acquire high-quality examples of early 2000s Pokémon trading cards.
