Emolga Holo Rare Appraisal

Pokemon TCG Emolga Holo Rare Card

This item is a collectible trading card from the Pokémon Trading Card Game, specifically an Emolga card with a Holo Rare rarity. The card features a standard Pokémon card size, typically measuring approximately 2.5 inches by 3.5 inches. It is constructed from a cardstock material with a glossy, holographic finish across the entire illustration and text area, giving it a 'gold' or 'reverse holo' appearance, as indicated by the shimmering effect in the image. The main illustration depicts the Pokémon Emolga, a dark-furred, flying squirrel-like creature, against a circular, radiating green and yellow background that suggests an electrical or energy effect. The card features a yellow border around the illustration and the informational text. Key identifying features include the Pokémon's name 'Emolga' at the top left, its HP '60' at the top right, and various game-specific text detailing its 'Ability: Nimbly Gathering' and an attack named 'Nuzzle'. There are also combat statistics like '+2' for weakness and '-20' for resistance, along with retreat cost symbols. The card's condition appears to be relatively good, with no immediately visible major creases, bends, or significant edge wear, though a definitive assessment would require a clearer, higher-resolution image and inspection of both sides. The card appears to be from a modern era of Pokémon TCG, likely released in the 2010s or later, given its design and holographic style. The craftsmanship is consistent with officially licensed Pokémon products, featuring high-quality printing and a durable finish typical of collectible trading cards. The holographic pattern indicates a rarer print than common cards, contributing to its collectibility.
