Mega Absol EX (#161/132) hits as an ultra rare full art from those XY mega evolution days, sitting in raw condition straight out of a pack pull. It’s got that mega form vibe, with Absol’s wings spread wide and a shadowy aura dominating the card. The artwork pops with a dark, stormy background where the holo foil swirls around like a bad omen, catching light in all the right spots without overwhelming the details. You see Absol’s white fur contrasting against the black voids, illustrator 5ban Graphics nailing the ominous feel.
On the text side, it’s a Dark type with 170 HP. Mega evolves from Absol EX, following the usual rule where your turn ends when you mega evolve. The attack is Disaster Wing for one Dark and one Colorless energy—base 80 damage, but you can discard up to two cards from your hand to add 40 damage per discard. No ability here, just straightforward power. Weakness to Fairy times two, resistance to Psychic minus 20, and a single retreat cost. Keeps it simple for deck building back in the day.
This one came from a 2015 release window, part of the XY expansions where mega EX cards were everywhere, often in premium boxes or special prints. Common quirks on these full arts include centering that’s a bit off—maybe 60/40 on the borders if you’re measuring, since the printing presses weren’t always perfect on the thicker stock. Edges might show minor whitening from shuffling, but that’s typical for raw copies handled a few times. The card stock feels solid, not too bendy, with that slight gloss over the foil.
For raw details, let’s talk condition. Corners are usually crisp if it’s been stored right, no dings or rounding from rough play. Edges look clean, maybe a tiny nick here or there from pack opening, but nothing major. Surface is smooth, free of scratches or print lines that plague some holos, and the holo flash is even, giving that fresh snap when you tilt it under light. Centering quirks aside, it’s a solid raw piece for anyone chasing these mega designs.
Funny how these megas always look like they’re about to ruin someone’s day—sleeve it up or let a grader decide its fate.
