Collector Insights

Flaaffy is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 80 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It includes two attacks: Thunder Spear, which costs one Lightning energy and deals 20 damage to an opposing Pokémon, and Thundershock, requiring Lightning and two Colorless energies to deal 40 damage while flipping a coin to potentially paralyze the defending Pokémon. The card resists Metal-type attacks by 20 damage but is weak to Fighting-type attacks, taking double damage. Its flavor text describes the Pokémon as having patches caused by storing excessive electricity. The card was released in the HeartGold & SoulSilver series on February 10, 2010, and is classified as Uncommon rarity. Artist Masakazu Fukuda designed the card, and it belongs to the Pokémon supertype. The card’s converted retreat cost is one, and it has no listed abilities or additional rules.

As a result of storing too much electricity, it developed patches where even downy wool won't grow.
