Skarmory is a Metal-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy cards. It boasts a resistance to Psychic attacks, reducing damage by 20, and a weakness to Fire attacks, which deal double damage.

Skarmory’s design is attributed to artist Hajime Kusajima, and its flavor text highlights its lightweight iron body, enabling flight at speeds exceeding 180 mph. The card was released in the "Boundaries Crossed" set of the Black & White series on November 7, 2012, and is classified as an Uncommon rarity. Its unique combination of defensive traits and strategic attack options makes it a notable entry in the Pokémon TCG collection.
