Slugma [Reverse Holo] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
This card’s attack pairing is a neat game-to-card callback: Bulbapedia notes that both Yawn and Headbutt are video game moves, but Slugma can actually learn Yawn and not Headbutt, giving this common an unusual little bit of TCG flavor history.
Set Lore
Slugma #73 comes from EX Unseen Forces, the 2005 English set based on Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and the set was released with Reverse Holofoils across the expansion—one reason even commons like this have a strong binder-era charm for ex collectors.
Artist
This Slugma was illustrated by Tomokazu Komiya, one of the Pokémon TCG’s most distinctive long-running artists, and his name alone gives humble cards like this a real niche among illustrator collectors.
In-Game
Slugma has one of the strangest early game histories in Pokémon: Bulbapedia notes that despite being a Generation II species, it was originally native to Kanto in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal rather than Johto.
Cultural Impact
For collectors who love oddball Pokémon design, Slugma stands out as a lava slug inspired by molten rock, and Bulbapedia even points to possible folklore inspiration from the magma-dwelling Cherufe of Chilean legend.
