#92 Dark Claw - Dark Explorers (bw5)

Dark Claw is a Trainer card from the Black & White series, released as part of the Dark Explorers set on May 9, 2012. It is illustrated by 5ban Graphics and classified as an Uncommon rarity card. The card functions as a Trainer card with specific rules that allow players to attach a Pokémon Tool to one of their Pokémon without an existing tool. If attached to a Darkness Pokémon, it enhances the targeted Pokémon’s attacks by dealing 20 additional damage to the Active Pokémon. This effect applies before considering Weakness and Resistance. The card also permits players to play multiple Item cards during their turn, provided they occur before their attack phase. Its design emphasizes strategic flexibility by combining attachment mechanics with conditional damage boosts. The card’s rules encourage interaction between Trainer cards and Pokémon abilities, enhancing gameplay dynamics. As a part of the Dark Explorers expansion, it contributes to the series’ focus on exploring new Pokémon and Trainer synergies.
