Collector Insights

Magnemite is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 60 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It appears in the Black & White series, part of the Plasma Storm set released on February 6, 2013. The card’s Pokédex number is 81, and it is classified as a Common rarity. Magnemite has no resistances but is weak to Fighting-type attacks, which deal double damage. Its attacks include "Metal Sound," a Colorless energy cost move that flips a coin to potentially confuse the defending Pokémon, and "Electro Ball," a Lightning and Colorless energy move that deals 20 damage. The card’s flavor text describes electromagnetic waves emitted by its head as enabling antigravity for floating. Artist Shigenori Negishi designed the card’s illustration.

The electromagnetic waves emitted by the units at the sides of its head expel antigravity, which allows it to float.
