The Piplup RC6/RC25 card from the Legendary Treasures: Radiant Collection is a shimmering Reverse Holo Uncommon released in November 2013. As a Basic Water-type Pokémon with 60 HP, it features charming artwork by sui that captures the pre-evolution form of the Sinnoh starter. This card is a favorite among collectors for its inclusion in the popular Radiant Collection subset, which reprints classic holographic cards with a unique reverse foil treatment, making it a staple for completing the Black & White era.

In gameplay, this Piplup offers early-game utility through its "Charm" attack, which reduces damage taken from the opponent's Defending Pokémon by 20 during their next turn, effectively acting as a damage shield for a single turn. Its primary offensive move, "Peck," costs one Water and one Colorless Energy to deal a modest 20 damage. With a Lightning weakness, no resistance, and a low retreat cost of one Colorless Energy, it serves as a reliable starter Pokémon or a bench sitter in Unlimited format decks focusing on Water-type strategies.

The reverse holographic pattern is generally durable, though edge wear and surface scratches can significantly lower the value of raw examples. Whether used in casual decks or as part of a comprehensive Radiant Collection set, this Piplup remains a beloved piece of the Black & White series due to its iconic status and affordable entry point for collectors.
