Salamence Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Salamence from Secret Wonders is a Stage 2 Colorless Rare Holo whose "Dragon Finish" can either blast the Active Pokémon or snipe the Bench depending on whether you discard Fire or Water Energy, giving the card a dramatic split-personality finisher that collectors still remember from the DP era.
In-Game
This card’s flavor text is lifted from the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Pokédex, tying it directly to Salamence’s signature game lore that its overwhelming dream of flight literally changed its cells and gave it wings.
Set Lore
Salamence appears in Secret Wonders, the third main expansion of the Diamond & Pearl Series, a 132-card set released in English on November 7, 2007 during the early LV.X boom that defined the era’s collector appeal.
Artist
The artwork was illustrated by Kazuyuki Kano, one of the artists contributing to Secret Wonders’ memorable holo lineup, and Salamence sits alongside Kano’s other heavyweight DP-era illustrations like Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Venusaur from the same set.
Card History
Salamence already had a fierce anime reputation before this card released, with notable appearances including J’s intimidating Salamence in Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl, which makes this holo feel especially at home in the same era.
