What does Reverse Holo mean for Charcadet 40/198?
In the Scarlet & Violet Base Set expansion, a Reverse Holo variant is a premium parallel print. Unlike regular holos where only the central art glows, the Reverse Holo pattern blankets the entire face of the card—including the card borders, title block, and attack text—while keeping the primary illustration box non-foil.
Is Charcadet 40/198 legal for competitive tournament play?
Yes. Charcadet features the G Regulation Mark, making it completely legal under current Pokémon TCG Standard Rotation rules. It can be utilized in active tournament decks with a maximum limitation of four identical copies per deck list.
What exact card condition is this item graded under?
This card is stocked in unplayed Near Mint (NM) condition. Sourced directly from booster packs, it exhibits minimal to no surface abrasions, crisp unwhitened perimeter edges, sharp centering, and pristine rear blue backing geometry free of clouding or factory warping.
What Stage 1 Pokémon can Charcadet evolve into?
Charcadet features a unique split evolution pathway. Depending on your tactical deck requirements, it can evolve into either the Stage 1 Fire-type Armarouge or the Stage 1 Psychic/Fire-type Ceruledge architectures found across the Scarlet & Violet series blocks.
Who is the official artist behind this card illustration?
The artwork and card layout for this SV1 print iteration were crafted by artist Oswaldo KATO, capturing the dynamic regional environment styling and updated silver border design featured throughout the modern Scarlet & Violet trading card game generation.
