Collector Insights

Ampharos is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 80 HP, featured in the Neo Genesis set released in December 2000. It is depicted as a Rare Holo card with artwork by Ken Sugimori. The Pokémon’s attack, Gigaspark, requires three Lightning Energy to deal 40 damage and includes a coin flip effect. If the result is heads, the Defending Pokémon is Paralyzed, and this attack inflicts 10 damage to each of the opponent’s Benched Pokémon, bypassing their Weakness and Resistance. Ampharos has a Fighting-type weakness that doubles its damage. Its retreat cost consists of two Colorless Energy, and it belongs to the Pokémon supertype. The card’s flavor text describes its tail as a glowing beacon guiding lost individuals.

The tail's tip shines brightly and can be seen from far away. It acts as a beacon for lost people.
