Standard holofoil vs. reverse holo

Cacturne 2/100 appears in two variants in EX Sandstorm: a standard holofoil (this version) and a separate reverse holo. Standard holofoil features the classic shiny area within the image frame, while the reverse holo variant has the holo effect across the rest of the card. This edition is not reverse holo and should not be confused with that variant.
