#49 Chinchou - Sun & Moon (sm1)
Chinchou is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It possesses two attacks: "Searching Light," which requires one Colorless energy to let the player examine a face-down Prize card, and "Electro Ball," costing three energy (Lightning and two Colorless) to deal 30 damage. The Pokémon has a resistance to Metal-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, and is weak to Fighting-type moves, taking double damage. Its design includes a single Colorless energy retreat cost, aligning with its basic evolution in the Sun & Moon series. The card’s flavor text describes Chinchou as a creature dwelling in dark, sunless depths, using bioluminescent antennae to signal other members of its species. It was released in the Sun & Moon set on February 3, 2017, and is classified as a Common rarity card. The artwork by Ayaka Yoshida captures its aquatic, electrically charged appearance.
