Escavalier — the Cavalry Pokémon, evolved Karrablast, the armored Bug/Steel beetle-knight wearing Shelmet's stolen shell as a suit of medieval-knight armor. One of the franchise's most thematically clever evolutions — the trade-evolution mechanic is literally Karrablast taking Shelmet's shell during the swap. Real Gen-5 OU competitive niche thanks to Overcoat + Megahorn + Drill Run combo.
Escavalier has a clean single-chase list — the 2025 Black Bolt Illustration Rare leads by a 20× margin at $17, with a 2012 Dark Explorers Holo and a Plasma Blast Holo in the secondary tier and BW-era bulk reprints below. Two-tier structure with the modern chase plus a small set of classic-era pickups.
The chase. 2025 Black Bolt's Illustration Rare gives the beetle-knight adult a painterly modern showcase — by a 20× margin the priciest Escavalier in the catalog. Where basically all modern interest in the line lives.
