Master Ball [Reverse Holo] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Master Ball #88 is one of EX Deoxys’s uncommon Trainer cards, and in this era its effect let you dig through the top seven cards for a Pokémon—an older TCG interpretation of the iconic item before later prints became a true any-Pokémon search.
Set Lore
The reverse holo version stands out because EX Deoxys used the set’s distinctive wheel-pattern reverse foil, giving this utility Trainer a flashy finish collectors instantly recognize from 2005 EX-era binders.
Set Lore
This card comes from EX Deoxys, the English set released on February 14, 2005, a release timed to the home video push around Destiny Deoxys, which helped give the whole expansion a strong movie-era identity.
In-Game
What makes this print especially fun is that its card text is actually weaker than the video-game Master Ball, since the in-game item is famous for catching any wild Pokémon without fail while this card can still miss if your top seven contain no Pokémon.
Cultural Impact
The Master Ball’s legend is so strong that fans also remember the rare times it failed in Pokémon media, including the Ruby & Sapphire episode "Whiscash and Ash," where a wild Whiscash simply swallowed one whole.
