Collecting Barboach

Barboach debuted in 2003's Dragon set and has stayed small since — 10 cards across 10 sets, all commons or uncommons, with nothing clearing real money. The 2005 Deoxys common stands as the technical chase, though three different artists each hold just one credit, so nothing here stands out as a clear print to chase.
