Mega Absol Ex Full Art Appraisal

Mega Absol EX (Full Art)

This item is a full art Pokémon Trading Card Game card featuring Mega Absol EX, as indicated by the prominent 'Mega Absol EX' text and the 'HP 170' at the top right, typical for EX and Mega EX cards. The card's artwork is a dynamic illustration of Mega Absol, depicted in shades of white, grey, and blue, surrounded by vibrant abstract energy effects rendered in blue, purple, and yellow. The full art designation suggests the illustration covers the majority of the card surface, extending beyond the typical borders, which is confirmed by the visible design. The card has a 'Darkness Claw' attack with 80 damage, and its effect allows the player to reveal the opponent's hand, choose a Supporter card, and discard it. Below the attack, common card attributes are visible, including 'weakness +20', 'resistance', and 'retreat' cost symbols, though the specific resistance value is not clear. A 'Mega Evolution EX Rule' text box is present at the bottom, stating 'When your Mega Evolution Pokemon EX is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 prize cards.' The card appears to be in excellent condition with no visible creases, tears, or significant edge wear, suggesting it could be near-mint or mint. The holographic or metallic sheen visible on certain parts of the card and around the border further enhances its visual appeal and commonly indicates a 'full art' or 'secret rare' rarity. The vibrant colors and sharp details suggest a high-quality print. The borders, though thin due to the full art design, appear uniform and clean.
