Collector Insights
Pachirisu is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It resists Metal-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks with a 20 damage boost. The card includes two attacks: "Call for Family" and "Smash Short," both costing one Colorless energy. "Call for Family" allows the player to search their deck for up to three Basic Pokémon and place them on their Bench, then shuffle their deck. "Smash Short" deals 10 damage plus an additional 30 if the defending Pokémon has a Pokémon Tool card attached, followed by discarding that Tool card and discarding matching Tools from the opponent's hand. The card’s flavor text describes Pachirisu creating fur balls charged with static electricity and storing them with berries in tree holes. It was released in the Great Encounters set of the Diamond & Pearl series on February 1, 2008, and is illustrated by Hironobu Yoshida.
