Collector Insights
Pichu is a Lightning-type Pokémon from the EX series, featured in the Emerald set released on May 1, 2005. It has 40 HP and is weak to Fighting-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card includes a Poké-Power ability called Baby Evolution, allowing the player to evolve Pichu into Pikachu by placing it from their hand during their turn and removing all damage counters. Its sole attack, Collect, requires one Colorless energy and lets the player draw a card. Pichu’s retreat cost is one Colorless energy, making it relatively easy to retreat. The card is illustrated by artist Nakaoka and is classified as a Common rarity. It holds the Pokédex number 172 and is numbered 59 in the set. The design emphasizes Pichu’s role as a starter Pokémon with straightforward mechanics.
