Collector Insights
Zorua is a Darkness-type Pokémon from the Black & White series, featured in the Dark Explorers set released in 2012. It has 60 HP and requires one Colorless energy to retreat. The card’s artwork was created by Akira Komayama, and its flavor text highlights the Pokémon’s ability to conceal its true identity through transformation. Zorua possesses two attacks: Paralyzing Gaze, which costs one Colorless energy and has a 50% chance to paralyze the defending Pokémon, and Shadow Bind, which demands one Darkness and one Colorless energy to deal 20 damage and prevent the defending Pokémon from retreating during the opponent’s next turn. The card resists Psychic-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks with double damage. Its design emphasizes stealth and adaptability, aligning with its thematic role in the Pokémon TCG. Zorua’s presence in the Dark Explorers set reflects its tactical versatility in gameplay.
To protect themselves from danger, they hide their true identities by transforming into people and Pokémon.
