About the Reverse Holo printing

Which object this page prices — and how to tell it from the standard Zapdos.

The Reverse Holo Zapdos has the foil on the card body rather than the picture — the opposite of the standard holo. Pulled from Evolutions packs alongside the regular version: same number, different finish, its own market, and a finish that shows scratches and whitening more readily than a holo.

How to tell · the card body, not the picture

Everything except the illustration window is foiled — the mirror image of a normal holo, where only the picture shines.
