Trivia

This card borrows its layout from the EX Series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. As such, this is the first card since POP Series 5 to feature a Pokémon Star, and is one of the few modern Pokémon cards to have a Pokémon Power as opposed to an Ability.

Origin

Mist Slash is an attack that first appeared on Greninja from XY. This card features the Shiny version of Greninja.
