Magcargo [Reverse Holo] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
This EX Deoxys Magcargo is remembered for its famously disruptive Smooth Over Poké-Power, which let players stack any card on top of the deck before attacking and made it a notable setup piece in mid-2000s play.
Set Lore
As a Reverse Holo from EX Deoxys, this card comes from the 2005 expansion released alongside the home video launch of Destiny Deoxys, and the reverse foil version uses the set’s distinctive wheel-pattern holo treatment.
In-Game
Magcargo itself debuted in Pokémon Gold and Silver as one of Johto’s Gen II Pokémon, giving this card a link back to the era that first introduced the Lava Pokémon to players.
Cultural Impact
Magcargo’s Pokédex lore is infamous among fans because multiple game entries describe its body temperature as roughly 18,000 degrees Fahrenheit, making it one of the franchise’s most meme-worthy examples of over-the-top Pokédex science.
Artist
Although this specific card is illustrated by Midori Harada, collectors often connect EX-era cards like this one to the broader vintage-art tradition shaped by longtime Pokémon illustrator Kagemaru Himeno, whose work has appeared on cards since Jungle and remained recognizable for decades.
