    The XY Furious Fists expansion was released in August 2014, making it part of the sixth generation of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set is notable for introducing several new mechanics and focusing on Fighting-type Pokémon, although Sliggoo is a Dragon-type. Sliggoo itself, Pokémon #705, was first introduced in the Pokémon X and Y video games, representing a stage in the evolution line of the popular pseudo-legendary Goodra.

    DID YOU KNOW?

    1

    Sliggoo is based on slugs and snails, specifically being considered a 'shell-less snail' or a 'slug Pokémon,' a unique design choice for a Dragon-type.

    2

    Despite its goo-like appearance, Sliggoo's 'shell' is actually a sensory organ used to detect air movements.

    MATERIAL & CONDITION

    Surface

    The card exhibits a holographic foil pattern within the illustration window, characteristic of 'Holo' or 'Reverse Holo' rarity in the Pokémon TCG. The print appears glossy, and the primary image is reflective, suggesting a standard holofoil finish. Minor surface wear is visible.

    Weight & Feel

    As a standard trading card, it feels lightweight and flexible, typical of layered cardstock construction.

    Condition

    The card appears to be in played to near mint condition. Based on the visible image, there might be slight wear on the edges and corners, but nothing overly significant. The holographic surface seems mostly intact. Further inspection would be needed to identify any scratches or indentations on the surface.
