Collector Insights
Malamar is a Darkness-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It includes two attacks: Hypnotic Reign, which costs one Darkness energy and allows the player to discard a revealed opponent’s Pokémon to use one of its non-GX attacks, and Dark Pressure, requiring three energy (two Colorless and one Darkness) to deal 80 damage while discarding the top card of the opponent’s deck. The card resists Psychic-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks multiplied by two. It belongs to the Sun & Moon series, released as part of the Unbroken Bonds set on May 3, 2019. The artist for this card is Yusuke Ohmura, and its flavor text references Malamar’s role in hypnosis for dubious purposes. The card’s design emphasizes its dark, psychological themes through its abilities and interactions.
When it comes to strong hypnosis, there's an endless number of people who utilize Malamar for their nefarious deeds.
