What it does
As long as Skarmory is the only Pokémon you have in play, your opponent's Basic Pokémon can't attack.
Search your deck for a Metal Pokémon (excluding Pokémon-ex), show it to your opponent, and put it into your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward.
During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Skarmory by attacks is reduced by 20 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).

Where it came from
Skarmory first appeared in the Pokémon Trading Card Game’s EX Delta Species expansion, released in late 2005. This set introduced the Delta Species mechanic, which reimagined Pokémon with different elemental types than their traditional forms to reflect the unique environment of Holon. The set's narrative centered on an expedition into a mysterious region where radio waves had mutated the local wildlife, resulting in these unconventional type variations.
The card features artwork by Midori Harada, a prolific illustrator for the series known for her soft, painterly aesthetic. In this specific iteration, Skarmory is depicted with the metal type, consistent with its standard classification, but rendered within the unique graphic frame and holographic sensibilities typical of the mid-2000s EX era. It remains a notable example of the aesthetic shift that defined the game's mid-lifecycle.
