Its ability, Sweet Sleeping Face, prevents all damage done to it by attacks while it is Asleep. The card’s attack, Playground, allows each player to search their deck for any number of Basic Pokémon, place them on their Bench, and shuffle their deck afterward. Pichu is then put to sleep as part of this effect. The card’s flavor text describes Pichu’s tendency to zap humans despite its small size, though it often surprises itself in the process. It has no weaknesses or resistances listed and requires no retreat cost. Pichu’s rarity is Rare, and it is numbered 28 in the set. The card’s artwork is attributed to artist match.
