#19 Kartana - Unbroken Bonds (sm10)

Kartana is a Grass-type Pokémon from the Sun & Moon series, featured in the Unbroken Bonds set released in 2019. It has 70 HP and a rarity of Rare Holo, designed by artist Shin Nagasawa. The card’s flavor text describes its body as thin and sword-like, emphasizing its sharp, blade-like structure. Kartana has two attacks: Big Cut, which costs one Grass energy and deals 10+ damage, with an additional 120 damage if the player has exactly four Prize cards remaining, and False Swipe, requiring Grass and two Colorless energies to flip a coin, potentially reducing the opponent’s Active Pokémon’s HP to 10. It has no resistances and is weak to Fire, taking double damage from Fire-type attacks. The card’s retreat cost is zero, allowing it to stay on the battlefield without requiring energy to retreat. Its design and mechanics reflect its thematic focus on precision and strategic advantage in battle.
