5 facts about this card
Banette opens EX Crystal Guardians at card #1, giving this Reverse Holo a front-of-set spotlight in a 100-card expansion that collectors remember for its eerie Hoenn flavor and late-EX-era style.
EX Crystal Guardians was released in English on August 30, 2006 and was the last expansion to feature dual-type Delta Species Pokémon, which makes any stamped reverse from the set feel like part of a closing chapter in the EX era.
Banette’s Gen III Pokédex lore says it was once an abandoned plush doll that came to life through cursed energy, which makes the card’s Poké-Body Safeguard feel perfectly on-theme for one of Hoenn’s creepiest Ghost Pokémon.
Official EX Crystal Guardians checklists note that cards 1 through 13 came in two foil versions, so this Reverse Holo belongs to the small holo-rare group that collectors often chase in both standard holo and stamped set-reverse form.
Illustrated by Kyoko Umemoto, this Banette pairs a soft painted style with a sinister subject, giving the card the kind of unsettling beauty that stands out in binder pages full of EX-era holos.
