Collector Insights

Alakazam is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless Energy. It possesses the Psymimic ability, allowing it to copy one of the opponent’s Pokémon’s attacks once during its turn, including Energy costs and required conditions, while retaining its Psychic type. The Syncroblast attack requires one Psychic and two Colorless Energy to deal 80 damage, but reduces to 20 if Alakazam and the defending Pokémon have differing numbers of attached Energy cards. Alakazam has no resistances and is weak to Psychic-type attacks multiplied by two. The card is part of the Expedition Base Set, released in September 2002, and is numbered 33 with a Rare rarity. It is illustrated by Hajime Kusajima and corresponds to the Pokémon's dex number 65. The card’s thematic focus revolves around mirroring opponents’ strategies through its unique ability.
