Pokémon TCG Altaria (Non-Holographic) Trading Card

The item is a non-holographic Pokémon trading card featuring the Pokémon 'Altaria'. It is a standard-sized trading card made of a coated cardstock material. The primary color scheme of the card is yellow for the border and the lower section, with the top section for the Pokémon's name and HP ('90') also being yellow. The artwork on the card depicts Altaria, a light blue, bird-like Pokémon with large, white, cloud-like wings, against a sky background with pinkish-orange and white clouds, possibly indicating a sunrise or sunset. The card is a 'STAGE 1' evolution from Swablu, as indicated in the top left corner. It lists an Ability called 'Tempting Tune' and an attack 'Glide' with a damage value of '60'. The 'Tempting Tune' ability text is slightly obscured in the image but appears to allow the player to search their deck for a Supporter card. The card appears to be in good condition with no obvious tears, creases, or major surface abrasions visible from the provided image. The edges and corners appear relatively sharp, suggesting minimal playwear. The printing seems clear and crisp, indicating good manufacturing quality. Based on the design, an estimated age would be contemporary, likely from a modern Pokémon TCG set published within the last 5-10 years. There are no visible unique markings that would indicate a special edition or rarity beyond it being a regular non-holographic card, though specific set symbols are not clearly visible to confirm its exact set affiliation.
