Collector Insights

Gigalith is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 140 HP, featured in the Black & White series under the Emerging Powers set, released on August 31, 2011. Its retreat cost requires four Colorless Energy, and it has no resistances but is weak to Grass-type attacks with a ×2 multiplier. The card’s flavor text describes its ability to harness and amplify solar energy through orange crystals for powerful attacks. Gigalith has two attacks: Shear, which costs one Fighting Energy and forces the player to discard the top five deck cards, potentially attaching Fighting Energy cards to the Pokémon, and Rock Bullet, a four Colorless Energy attack that deals 40+ damage and adds 20 extra damage per attached Fighting Energy. The card is numbered 53 and classified as Rare, with artwork by Naoki Saito. It does not include any abilities beyond its attacks, and its design aligns with the series’ thematic focus on elemental interactions. The card’s unique mechanics emphasize strategic deck management and energy optimization.

The solar energy absorbed by its body's orange crystals is magnified internally and fired from its mouth.
