Manectric is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 80 HP, featuring a unique attack that leverages attached Energy cards. Its primary move, Lightning Twister, costs one Colorless Energy and deals 20 damage multiplied by the number of basic Energy cards attached to it. Another key attack, Chain Lightning, requires three Lightning Energy to deal 70 damage while also targeting the opponent’s Benched Pokémon of the same type as the Defending Pokémon. The card’s flavor text describes Manectric discharging electricity from its mane and creating thunderclouds to summon lightning. It resists Metal-type attacks by 20 damage but is weak to Fighting-type moves, which deal 20 more damage.
