Description
Released in 2008 as part of the Stormfront set, Bronzong appears as Card 13 in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This Rare card represents the Stage 1 evolution of Bronzor and is categorized under the Psychic type. Designed by Kyoko Umemoto, this product offers enthusiasts a specific entry point into the 2008 release, distinguished by its Pokédex number 437. Collectors often seek this card for its distinct gameplay mechanics within the TCG framework. Bronzong possesses an Ability called Cycler, which allows players to manipulate their deck and hand by placing a card from their hand on top of their deck and searching for basic Energy cards. This functionality highlights the strategic depth present in the Stormfront expansion, appealing to players who appreciate resource management and deck construction. The card features two distinct attacks: Psychic and Heavy Potential. These moves introduce variable damage calculations and status effects, such as confusing the defending Pokémon or placing damage counters based on retreat costs. For hobbyists, these mechanics provide a tangible connection to the game’s history and the creative design choices made during the late 2000s. The combination of its evolution stage, type, and unique abilities makes it a notable piece for those studying the evolution of Pokémon TCG design. Whether you are completing a set, building a themed collection, or investing in classic TCG assets, this card stands as a representative artifact of its era. The specific card number and set code SF provide clear identification for cataloging purposes, ensuring that collectors can accurately track their acquisitions within the broader Pokémon universe.
