It has 60 HP and features a single attack called Slashing Strike, which costs two Grass energies to use and deals 40 damage. The attack’s effect prevents Scyther from using it during the next turn unless it is benched or evolved. The card includes a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 30, and a weakness to Fire-type attacks, which deal double damage. Artist Hironobu Yoshida designed the card, and its flavor text describes the Pokémon’s ability to create illusions of multiple entities through agility.
