Collector Insights
Raichu is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring a Rare Holo rarity and appearing in the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released in the Stormfront set on November 1, 2008, and is illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno. The card includes three distinct attacks: Slice, which deals 30 damage but cannot be used during the player’s next turn; Split Ball, requiring three Colorless Energy to move an Energy card from Raichu to a Benched Pokémon; and Burst Ball, costing Lightning and Colorless Energy to deal 100 damage while allowing the discard of three Energy cards from any of the player’s Pokémon. Raichu resists Metal-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks, which deal 20 more damage. Its retreat cost is zero, meaning it does not require any Energy to retreat. The card’s design and mechanics reflect its role as a versatile attacker with strategic Energy management options.
