Collector Insights

Alolan Persian is a Darkness-type Pokémon from the Sun & Moon series, featuring a card number of 79 and a Uncommon rarity. It has 90 HP and requires one Colorless Energy to retreat. The card includes two attacks: "Taunt," which swaps one of the opponent's Benched Pokémon with their Active Pokémon, and "Claw Rend," dealing 30+ damage plus an additional 30 if the opponent's Active Pokémon already has damage counters. Alolan Persian resists Psychic-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks multiplied by two. The card's flavor text highlights its popularity in Alola due to its soft, velvety appearance. Artist kirisAki designed the card, and it was released in the Sun & Moon set on February 3, 2017. The Pokémon's abilities focus on disrupting the opponent's positioning and leveraging damage counters for increased effectiveness.

Its round face and smooth coat—softer than the most high-class velvet—have made this a very popular Pokémon in Alola.
