Collector Insights

Unown [L] is a Psychic-type Pokémon from the Diamond & Pearl series, featured in the Great Encounters set released in February 2008. It has 50 HP and a retreat cost of one Colorless Energy. The card’s ability, LINK, allows it to use any attack from any Unown in play, both its own and its opponent’s, though the user must still cover the attack’s Energy cost. Its sole attack, Hidden Power, requires one Psychic and one Colorless Energy to deploy. When used, it lets the player search either player’s discard pile for up to two cards, reveal them to the opponent, and place them on top of that player’s deck in any order. The card’s flavor text hints at the enigmatic nature of Unown, suggesting a connection between its form and ancient written language. Unown [L] is classified as a Common rarity and is illustrated by artist Daisuke Ito. It has no resistances but is weak to Psychic-type attacks, taking an additional 10 damage.

Shaped like ancient writing, it is a huge mystery whether language or UNOWN came first.
