About Skarmory — Great Encounters
Skarmory is a Basic card from the Great Encounters set (card #53). It carries a rarity of Uncommon, placing it in the standard tier of desirability within this expansion. As a Metal-type Pokémon, Skarmory brings distinct strategic advantages to TCG gameplay.
Metal-type Pokémon are tanks — high HP, damage reduction, and staying power. Excellent in stall decks.
Skarmory is a Basic Pokémon, meaning it can be played directly onto the bench without needing to evolve. Basic Pokémon form the foundation of any deck and are essential for getting your game started.
With 70 HP, Skarmory has modest HP, typical of lower-stage or support Pokémon that rely on abilities rather than raw stats.
Rarity & Collectibility
Uncommon cards sit between commons and rares in pull rates. They're slightly harder to obtain than commons and can hold modest value, especially if the Pokémon is popular or the card features useful competitive abilities.
Skarmory Price Analysis
With a market value of $3.10, Skarmory represents an accessible mid-range card from the Great Encounters set.
