Collector Insights

Suicune is a Water-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless Energy. Its ability, Pure Body, allows it to discard an Energy card attached when a Water Energy is attached from the hand, though this action is conditional on having Energy cards attached. The card’s attack, Hypno Wave, costs Water and two Colorless Energies, dealing 30 damage plus an additional 20 if a coin flip lands heads, or inducing sleep if tails. Suicune’s weakness is to Lightning, which deals double damage. The card is part of the Nintendo Black Star Promos set, released in 2003, and is numbered 30 in the series. It is a Promo rarity card, designed by artist Atsuko Nishida. The card’s mechanics emphasize strategic Energy management and probabilistic damage outcomes.
