Collector Insights

Volcarona is a Fire-type Pokémon with 110 HP, featuring a retreat cost of three Colorless energy. It possesses the ability Scorching Scales, which applies four damage counters instead of two on the opponent's Burned Pokémon between turns. The card's attack, Burning Wind, costs Fire and two Colorless energy to deal 70 damage and allows the player to discard an attached Energy to burn the defending Pokémon. Volcarona's design is attributed to artist Shin Nagasawa, and it belongs to the Black & White series, released as part of the Dark Explorers set in 2012. The card's flavor text describes a fiery battlefield created by the Pokémon's six wings scattering ember scales. It has a Water weakness multiplied by two and is classified as a Rare Holo card. The card's structure includes a converted energy cost of three for both retreat and attack mechanics.

A sea of fire engulfs the surroundings of their battles, since they use their six wings to scatter their ember scales.
