Gloom

Description

Gloom #7 from the 2019 Unbroken Bonds expansion captures the distinct flavor of the Pokémon Trading Card Game’s mid-2010s design era. As a Stage 1 evolution of Oddish, this Grass-type Pokémon brings a unique strategic layer to deck construction through its Irresistible Aroma ability. The ability allows players to flip a coin to potentially reveal an opponent’s hand when their Bench is not full, adding a layer of information warfare to the match. For collectors, this Reverse Holo finish offers a visually striking alternative to the standard foil treatment, featuring a dynamic shimmer that highlights Gloom’s purple and green botanical features against the set's signature layout. The card’s attack, Drool, deals 30 damage by combining Grass and Colorless energy types, requiring only two Retreat Cost to maneuver on the battlefield. This straightforward offensive capability makes it a reliable tool for early-game pressure, though its modest damage output requires careful energy management. Designed by Anesaki Dynamic, the card’s visual presentation complements the mechanical depth of the TCG, appealing to both competitive players and casual hobbyists. Collecting the Unbroken Bonds series provides a comprehensive look at a pivotal moment in Pokémon history. Gloom’s inclusion in this set offers a tangible connection to the broader narrative of the franchise. Whether you are building a thematic deck around Grass-type Pokémon or seeking to complete a diverse collection of Reverse Holo cards, this product stands as a key component for enthusiasts. The combination of its strategic utility and aesthetic appeal ensures it remains a sought-after item for those who appreciate the intricate details of the Pokémon TCG.
