Description
Frogadier 57/197 from the 2023 Scarlet & Violet Obsidian Flames expansion is a Common Reverse Holo featuring the agile Water‑type middle evolution of Froakie. Obsidian Flames continues the SV‑era foil style, giving Frogadier a reflective reverse holo background that enhances binder presentation and adds visual depth to the card.
The artwork shows Frogadier mid‑leap, emphasizing its ninja‑like movement and clean SV‑block formatting. Reverse Holos in Obsidian Flames use a smooth reflective foil across the card background while keeping the artwork non‑holo, making them ideal for collectors building full reverse holo sets.
Collectors target Frogadier 57/197 for set completion, Water‑type binder pages, and SV‑block reverse holo collections. NM copies like this one are perfect for upgrading reverse holo pages or finishing Obsidian Flames.
