Gumshoos

Description

Gumshoos, the Stage 1 Pokémon evolving from Yungoos, appears as card number 181 in the Unified Minds expansion released in 2019. This product represents the Reverse Holo variant, a finish characterized by its distinctive shimmering background that contrasts with the subject's illustration. The card is categorized as a Rare rarity within the set, making it a common yet essential component for collectors aiming to complete the base Unified Minds collection. Designed by Midori Harada, this Pokémon Trading Card Game card features Colorless energy types and 100 Hit Points. Its primary ability, Alert Headbutt, deals 90 damage but offers a conditional boost: if the opponent's Active Pokémon is a Pokémon-GX or Pokémon-EX, the attack's base damage increases to 30. This mechanical detail makes the card particularly interesting for players exploring specific deck archetypes that utilize the powerful GX or EX mechanics prevalent during the Unified Minds era. The card requires one Colorless energy to retreat, providing flexibility in gameplay positioning. Collectors often seek out specific finishes like the Reverse Holo for their aesthetic appeal and the tactile difference they bring to a binder or collection box. Whether you are building a competitive deck or focusing on the visual diversity of the set, this card offers a tangible connection to the 2019 release.
