The character
Talonflame is a Fire and Flying type Pokémon known for its speed and fierce diving attacks, evolving from Fletchinder. It is recognized in the Pokémon series for its aggressive battling style and striking red and white plumage. Talonflame is often depicted as a fast aerial predator in its native games and anime appearances.
This card
This is a second-stage evolution Pokémon ex card from the Storm Emeralda set, numbered 096/076 and marked with SR rarity, printed as a holo variant in Japanese. The artwork by 5ban Graphics shows Talonflame diving with wings spread against a blue, energy-streaked background, evolving from Hinoyakoma as noted on the card. The card bears the ex rule banner indicating two prize cards are taken when it is knocked out.
How it plays
This Pokémon ex has 280 HP and a single colorless-type weakness marked with a lightning bolt times two, plus a resistance of -30 against fighting type. Its ability, Excite Dive, lets the player put this card from hand onto the bench once per turn if a Star-type Mega Evolution ex is in play. Its attack, Kagizume Hunt, costs one colorless and one star energy, deals 150 damage, and allows the player to optionally search the deck for up to two cards to add to hand, then shuffle the deck.
