Collector Insights

Honchkrow is a Darkness-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It belongs to the Platinum series, specifically the Supreme Victors set, released on August 19, 2009. The card’s rarity is Rare, and it is numbered 29 in its series. Honchkrow’s ability, Darkness Restore, allows the player to search their opponent’s discard pile for a Basic Pokémon and place it on their bench during their turn, provided Honchkrow is the Active Pokémon and the opponent’s Bench isn’t full. This ability cannot be used if Honchkrow is under a Special Condition. The Pokémon’s attack, Riot, costs Darkness and two Colorless energies, dealing 30 damage plus 10 additional damage for each non-evolved Pokémon in play. It has a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, and is weak to Lightning-type attacks, which increase damage by 20. The card’s flavor text describes Honchkrow as a "Summoner of Night," referencing its ability to gather Murkrow with a deep cry.

If one utters a deep cry, many Murkrow gather quickly. For this, it is called "Summoner of Night."
