Description
Released in 2019, the Galarian Articuno SWSH123 holo promo card stands as a distinctive entry in the Pokémon TCG's Black Star Promos series. Designed by Shin Nagasawa, this Basic Psychic-type Pokémon carries 120 HP and offers strategic depth through its Cruel Charge ability, allowing players to attach two Psychic Energy cards when played from hand to the Bench. Its devastating Psylaser attack discards all attached Psychic Energy to deal 120 damage to an opponent's Pokémon, making it a memorable piece for competitive play and collection. Collectors value this card not just for its gameplay mechanics, but for its status as a promotional release. The SWSH123 designation identifies it within the broader Sword & Shield era, appealing to those who track specific set codes and promo variants. As a holo finish, it catches the light with a shimmering effect that enhances its visual appeal on the shelf or in a binder. Whether you are building a comprehensive library of Galarian region Pokémon or focusing on high-impact promo cards, this release offers a compelling addition to any portfolio.
