Metagross [Reverse Holo] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Metagross δ stands out even within EX Delta Species because it turns the usual Steel/Psychic Metagross into a dual Lightning/Metal Pokémon, making it a perfect showcase of the set’s bizarre type-shifted Delta Species concept.
Set Lore
EX Delta Species was released in English on October 31, 2005 and introduced the Delta Species mechanic as fallout from Holon researchers’ experiments, giving cards like Metagross δ a sci-fi backstory collectors still love.
Cultural Impact
Reverse Holo versions from EX Delta Species are especially distinctive because the set used a refractor-style foil treatment on the artwork background, with Rare Holo reverses like Metagross δ also getting gold foil HP text.
In-Game
Metagross has long been celebrated in the games as a living supercomputer, with Pokédex entries describing its four brains as processing difficult calculations faster than a supercomputer, which makes the card’s deck-manipulating Delta Control Poké-Power feel especially on-theme.
Artist
This card was illustrated by Masakazu Fukuda, a longtime Pokémon TCG artist who has been contributing card artwork since 2003, giving Metagross δ a place in one of the EX era’s most recognizable illustration lineups.
