Galarian Obstagoon

Description

The SWSH Black Star Promos set, released in 2019, features the SWSH193 Galarian Obstagoon promo card, a Stage 2 Darkness-type Pokémon with 170 HP. Evolving from Galarian Linoone, this card is cataloged under Pokédex number 862 and bears the Regulation Mark E. Designed by Megumi Higuchi, the card introduces the attack "Rampaging Kick," which deals 180 damage but requires the player to discard two Darkness Energy cards from this Pokémon. As a promo release, it holds a distinct place in the Pokémon TCG collector's landscape, appealing to those who value unique distribution methods and specific set completions. Collectors often seek out SWSH193 for its straightforward design and its role in the Galar region storyline. The card's mechanical identity centers on its high damage output balanced by significant energy cost, making it a notable piece for enthusiasts of the Darkness type. Integrating this card into a collection adds depth to any SWSH Black Star Promos grouping, offering a tangible connection to the 2019 promotional era. Its inclusion in The catalog highlights the ongoing interest in diverse Pokémon TCG subsets beyond standard booster packs.
