Collector Insights

Dark Alakazam is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 60 HP. It has a retreat cost of three Colorless energy and a converted retreat cost of 3. The card features two attacks: Teleport Blast, which costs two Psychic and one Colorless energy to deal 30 damage and allows switching with a Benched Pokémon before the damage is applied, and Mind Shock, which costs three Psychic energy to deal 40 damage while ignoring Weakness and Resistance for this attack. Dark Alakazam has no resistances and is weak to Psychic-type attacks multiplied by two. The card was released in the Team Rocket set as part of the Base series on April 24, 2000. It is classified as a Rare Holo card and was illustrated by Ken Sugimori. The flavor text describes the Pokémon as maintaining a fixed expression during battles, suggesting an enigmatic or controlled demeanor. This card emphasizes strategic positioning and special attack mechanics within its gameplay context.

Almost as if it were being controlled by something else, it never changes expressions, even in the middle of battle.
