Collector Insights

Blaziken is a Fire-type Pokémon with 130 HP, featured in the Platinum series as part of the Platinum set released on February 11, 2009. It is classified as a Rare Holo card and designed by artist Hajime Kusajima. The card’s retreat cost is one Colorless energy, and it has no resistances, making it vulnerable to Water-type attacks which deal 30 more damage. Blaziken possesses a Poké-Power called Fire Breath, allowing it to burn a defending Pokémon once per turn, provided it is not under a Special Condition. Its primary attacks include Clutch, which costs two Colorless energy to deal 40 damage and prevents the defending Pokémon from retreating during the opponent’s next turn, and Fire Spin, a more powerful move requiring two Fire and one Colorless energy to deal 100 damage while discarding two Energy cards attached to Blaziken. The card’s design emphasizes its fiery attributes through its abilities and attack mechanics, aligning with its Fire-type classification. Blaziken’s strategic role in gameplay revolves around its ability to disrupt opponents through burn effects and Energy management.
