Sparkling CrystalStellar Crown #142 Pokémon Card

Sparkling Crystal is not a Pokémon itself, but rather a Pokémon Tool card from the Pokémon Trading Card Game. As such, it does not have Pokédex lore, a natural habitat, diet, or behavior in the traditional sense of a Pokémon species. Tool cards represent items or equipment that Pokémon can hold or use to gain an advantage in battle. They are an integral part of the game's strategy, allowing players to customize their Pokémon and adapt to various situations. This particular Tool card is designed to interact specifically with Tera Pokémon, a mechanic introduced in the latest generation of the Pokémon universe. Tera Pokémon are a unique phenomenon in the Paldea region, where Pokémon can undergo Terastallization, changing their type and gaining a crystalline appearance, which enhances their abilities and adds a new layer of strategic depth to battles. Tool cards like Sparkling Crystal are crucial for maximizing the potential of these new mechanics, reflecting their importance in both the video games and the TCG.
