Collector Insights

Magcargo is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 80 HP, featuring a retreat cost of three Colorless Energy. Its primary attack, Crushing Lava, requires one Fighting and two Colorless Energy to deal 40+ damage, with an optional discard of a Fire or Fighting Energy card to enhance effects. Discarding a Fire Energy triggers a Burn status on the Defending Pokémon, while discarding a Fighting Energy adds 20 extra damage. The card includes a Poké-Power ability called Streaming Mantle, which allows discarding the top three deck cards and shuffling three basic Energy cards from discard into the deck when evolving Magcargo, with the opponent performing the same action. Magcargo has a Water weakness that multiplies damage by two. The card was released in the Skyridge set as part of the E-Card series on May 12, 2003. It is numbered 17 and classified as a Rare Holo card. Artist Mitsuhiro Arita designed the card, which aligns with the thematic color scheme of #ae8b48.
