#79 Honchkrow - Guardians Rising (sm2)
Honchkrow is a Darkness-type Pokémon from the Sun & Moon series, featured in the Guardians Rising set released on May 5, 2017. It has 110 HP and requires one Colorless energy to retreat. The card resists Fighting-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Lightning-type attacks with double damage. Honchkrow possesses two attacks: Feint Attack, which costs one Darkness energy and deals 30 damage to a single opponent's Pokémon, bypassing Weakness, Resistance, and other effects, and Raven's Claw, which uses two Colorless energies to deal 10 damage plus 10 for each damage counter on all of the opponent's Pokémon. The card's design is attributed to artist Hideki Ishikawa, and its flavor text describes a nocturnal Pokémon capable of summoning a large group of Murkrow allies with a single cry. Honchkrow is classified as a Rare card, emphasizing its collectibility. The card's strategic versatility lies in its ability to disrupt opponents through direct damage and counter-based effects.
