This card
This is Cobalion ex, numbered 103/086 in the Chaos Rising (CRI) set, printed as a full art holofoil card with an ultra rare SR rarity designation. The artwork, illustrated by 5ban Graphics, shows Cobalion in a dynamic upward pose against a shaded blue background that emphasizes its metallic coloring and flowing white mane. The card carries the oversized ex-style layout with its name and HP positioned along the top border.
How it plays
Cobalion ex is a Basic Pokémon with 210 HP, weak to Fire (x2) and resistant to Grass (-30), with a retreat cost of two. Its Ability, Metal Road, lets the player move any amount of Metal Energy from other Pokémon onto Cobalion ex once per turn when it moves from the Bench to the Active Spot. Its attack, Power Tackle, costs two Metal Energy and one Colorless Energy, deals 200 damage, but prevents Cobalion ex from attacking during the player's next turn. As an ex Pokémon, when it is Knocked Out the opponent takes two Prize cards.
