Pokémon TCG Genesect

Description

This original Pokémon TCG card features the Paleozoic Pokémon, Genesect, as a powerful Basic character restored from a fossil. The card showcases a striking illustration of the purple, bipedal insectoid Pokémon standing amidst a rugged, rocky landscape under a clear sky, highlighting its sleek, metallic chassis and glowing red eyes.

As a Grass-type Pokémon in this edition, it utilizes advanced weaponry to penetrate the opponent’s defenses. Its primary move, Bug’s Cannon, deals direct damage that scales for every Grass Energy attached to the Pokémon, specifically allowing the player to target and damage one of the opponent’s Benched Pokémon. For a more direct and swift assault, it utilizes Speed Attack to deliver a reliable, fixed amount of damage to the Active character. The artwork by Mitsuhiro Arita perfectly captures the character’s ancient yet futuristic design, complemented by flavor text noting that Team Plasma altered this ancient Pokémon and attached a cannon to its back.

This version is a Holofoil, featuring a shimmering finish across the artwork and borders. The card also features standard game stats, including a specific weakness to Fire-type attacks and a defined retreat cost.
