Collector Insights

Electabuzz is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It boasts a resistance to Metal-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, and a weakness to Fighting-type attacks, increasing damage by 10. The card includes two attacks: Thunderpunch, which costs one Lightning and one Colorless energy, deals 30 damage plus an additional 10 on a coin flip head, and inflicts 10 damage to Electabuzz itself on tails; and Shock Wave, which requires two Lightning energy, deals 20 damage, and has a 50% chance to paralyze the defending Pokémon. If Electabuzz is evolved from Elekid, Shock Wave also targets one of the opponent’s Benched Pokémon, bypassing their Weakness and Resistance. The card’s flavor text hints at its association with power plants, noting it contributes to blackouts by consuming electricity. Designed for the Diamond & Pearl series, it was released in May 2007. Artist Kagemaru Himeno illustrates the card, capturing Electabuzz’s electrifying presence.

Half of all blackouts occur when this Pokémon appears at power plants and eats electricity.
