Unlike standard basic prints, this card marks the official debut block release for Golisopod within the silver-bordered modern era layout. Set completionists heavily target this print because it stands as a cornerstone element for completing the Water-type sector of the master set index.

What is the best way to protect a Double Rare card from long-term damage?
To preserve the smooth factory gloss and prevent edge whitening or surface scratches, you should immediately slide the card into a tight-fitting penny sleeve and then snap it into a rigid plastic top loader. Storing your single cards this way completely shields them from handling wear, air moisture, and minor drop impacts.
