Collector Insights
Electabuzz is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It appears in the Platinum series, released in February 2009, as a Rare Secret card. The Pokémon has no resistances but is weak to Fighting-type attacks, taking double damage from them. Its attacks include Thundershock, which costs one Lightning energy and deals 10 damage while potentially paralyzing the defending Pokémon, and Thunderpunch, requiring Lightning and Colorless energy to deal 30 damage plus an additional 10 if a coin flip results in heads. The latter attack also inflicts 10 damage to itself if the flip is tails. Electabuzz’s flavor text highlights its affinity for strong electricity and its tendency to appear near power plants. The card is illustrated by artist Ken Sugimori, known for his work on Pokémon designs.
It loves to feed on strong electricity. It occasionally appears around large power plants and so on.
