5 facts about this card
Salamence is one of the set’s Dragon-type Rare Holos in Black & White—Plasma Blast, appearing as card 64/101 alongside its full Bagon-to-Shelgon evolution line in the checklist.
This card’s flavor text comes straight from Salamence’s core game lore: its overwhelming dream of flight changed its cells and caused wings to grow, making the card feel like a snapshot of one of Pokémon’s most famous evolution stories.
For anime fans, Salamence’s physical animated series debut was under Elite Four member Drake in "Vanity Affair," giving the species a powerful on-screen reputation that suits a heavy Stage 2 holo like this one.
Breakwing gives this Salamence a distinctly Black & White-era tactical identity, punishing Pokémon Tool-heavy boards the moment you evolve into it before Gaia Crush can even blow away a Stadium.
Naoki Saito had already begun contributing to the Pokémon TCG in the HeartGold & SoulSilver era, so this Plasma Blast Salamence sits relatively early in the career of an illustrator who later became especially celebrated by collectors for standout Pokémon and Trainer art alike.
