Shedinja

Description

The 2020 Vivid Voltage release brought a fresh visual identity to the Pokémon TCG, and card number 66 stands out as a unique entry for collectors focusing on the Psychic type. This release features Shedinja, a Basic Pokémon with 30 HP, designed with a distinctive reverse holo finish that enhances its appeal for set builders and investors alike. Unlike many other cards in the Vivid Voltage series, this product is marked with the Regulation Mark D, helping collectors track its place within the broader 2020 printing cycle. Shedinja is known for its unusual mechanics in the game, and this card reflects that with the Shell Survival ability. This trait restricts how the Pokémon can be played, requiring it to be put into play only via the effect of Ninjask’s Cast-Off Shell Ability. This creates a specific niche for players who build decks around Ninjask, making the card a functional piece for competitive strategies that rely on synergy. The card also features the Life Squeeze attack, which deals damage by placing counters on the opponent's Active Pokémon until its remaining HP is 10, offering a tactical option for controlling the board. For collectors, the reverse holo treatment adds a layer of visual interest without the premium cost of full foils or rare holo variants. Whether you are looking to complete a specific subset, build a Ninjask-focused deck, or simply add a unique Psychic-type to your collection, this card offers both gameplay utility and collectible value. The combination of its unique ability, distinct finish, and iconic subject makes it a noteworthy addition to any Pokémon TCG collection.
