Despite not even being close to the rarest or most valuable of cards in Heat Wave Arena [SV9a], the Misty’s Psyduck card nevertheless generated a significant amount of buzz among the Pokémon fanbase. This was completely understandable as even though Gyarados is the Cerulean Gym Leader’s ace, for those who watched the first generation of the Pokémon anime, many would associate Misty with her Psyduck that often served as comic relief.

About Misty’s Psyduck (Heat Wave Arena [SV9a] 071/063)

The Full Art illustration of this Art Rare (AR) card is an overhead shot of Misty and Psyduck in a pool of some sort—one with a stone surface. Obviously, the presence of Misty will drive up demand for the card—partially for nostalgia reasons and partially for demographical ones, the latter especially so because being in water, Misty is scantily clad. The choice of Psyduck as Misty’s featured Pokémon also calls to mind the early episodes of the Pokémon anime.

From a visual standpoint, the card’s holofoil layer adds an extra dimension. It provides a spectrum-like effect which makes it seem as though light is streaming down into the water, making the card’s illustration appear more life-like.
