5 facts about this card
Maractus #12 stands out as one of the rare cards in the original English Black & White expansion, the very first main set of the BW era and the first expansion to spotlight Generation V Pokémon in the TCG.
This card’s flavor text is lifted straight from Maractus’s Pokédex lore in Pokémon Black and White, tying the card directly to Unova’s desert-dwelling cactus Pokémon that rattles like maracas when it moves.
For Maractus collectors, this is a landmark card because Bulbapedia lists Black & White as the species’ TCG debut, making #12 one of the earliest anchor pieces in a Maractus master set.
The artwork is by Kouki Saitou, a longtime Pokémon TCG illustrator whose work stretches back for years, giving this early BW-era rare a strong connection to one of the hobby’s most recognizable artists.
Because the English Black & White checklist marks Maractus #12 as a rare and the set was released with reverse holos, this Reverse Holo version gives collectors a flashier parallel of one of Maractus’s earliest major-set appearances.
