What Is On This Card?

Poké-Body

Crystal Type

Whenever you attach a Fire, Water, or Lightning basic Energy card from your hand to Ho-oh, Ho-oh's type (color) becomes the same as that type of Energy until the end of the turn.

Attack · 20 damage

Holy Flame

Fire + Lightning energy. No additional attack text is listed.

Attack · 40 damage

Scalding Steam

Fire + Water + Water + Colorless energy. Discard an Energy card attached to Ho-oh and flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Burned.

How To Research This Printing

Start with the image, Skyridge set name, and 149 / 144 collector number. Those identifiers matter more than the character name alone because the Pokémon TCG can reuse names across reprints, promos, alternate artwork, and later expansions.

Next, match the finish and condition. A holofoil, reverse holofoil, unlimited, or first-edition listing may carry a different reference price even when it belongs to the same card printing. Grading adds another layer: raw marketplace references should not be treated as prices for PSA, Beckett, or CGC slabs.

Finally, compare the visible update date with current marketplace listings and recent sold results. MonZap gives you a fast catalog reference, set context, and scanner workflow, while the linked marketplaces help you check what is available right now.
