Collector Insights

Lt. Surge's Raichu is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 80 HP and a retreat cost of two Colorless Energy. It features two attacks: Kerzap, which costs two Lightning Energy and deals 20 damage plus an additional 30 if a coin flip results in heads, and Thundertackle, requiring four Energy (two Lightning and two Colorless) to deal 40 damage. The Kerzap attack also discards all Lightning Energy attached to Lt. Surge's Raichu when heads is flipped. Thundertackle has a 50% chance to paralyze the defending Pokémon or cause the user to take 20 damage to itself. The card has a Fighting weakness that multiplies damage by two. Designed by artist Ken Sugimori, it belongs to the Gym series released in 2000 as part of the Gym Challenge set. This Rare Holo card is numbered 11 and carries a rarity rating of Rare Holo.
