pokemon card ho oh Ho-Oh LEGEND (112/123) [HeartGold & SoulSilver: Base Set] This attack does 40 damage to that Pokemon Pokemon Card Ho-Oh LEGEND 016/070

A huge draw to cards like Thoughtsieze back in the day was that they would be incredibly powerful while not getting in the way of other powerful cards in the deck

Items, Stadiums, and Energy cards in this rarity look exceptionally premium

Its a smart way for them to test out what kinds of themes and art styles people get excited about without having to print a bazillion copies for regular stores

On top of all that, if for some reason you don't have use for a combat trick or a top rate removal card you can just throw down a 2/2 flash vigilance knight and get some reasonable value that way

Even if you did want to blame subsets for the death of baseball cards, the comparison to Masterpieces doesnt really hold water

Any whitening, dings, or chipping
