    I was looking through my cards today and noticed something different on my Swalot (11/100 - EX Crystal Guardians). The Name, HP and Star are gold, and the "EX Crystal Guardians" logo is in the image.

    Does this mean anything? I've heard of "Gold Cards" and was thinking it was one of those, but I really have no clue what so ever.

    Any info on this would be great! thx

    This is a reverse holo card, of which there is one in every booster pack. Apart from that, nothing really special.

    By "reverse holo" I'm guessing you mean the "holofoil" isn't in the picture area. It is actually.

    But if its not rare at all, no big deal. I've just never seen another card with the gold lettering.

    Anyway, just though I'd ask. :)

    With EX Series cards, the reverse-holo cards do have a holographic picture, along with a logo in the corner, and rare cards such as Swalot have gold HP and name. Swalot is a rare card, just not that rare, and its reverse holo isn't worth much more.

    Hope that helps. :)
