#90 Malamar - Burning Shadows (sm3)
Malamar is a Darkness-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It includes two attacks: Psybeam, which costs one Darkness energy to deal 20 damage and inflicts Confusion on the opponent's Active Pokémon, and Energy Slosh, requiring Darkness and two Colorless energies to deal 70 damage while allowing the player to transfer all attached Energy to a Benched Pokémon. The card resists Psychic-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type moves with double damage. It was released in the Sun & Moon series under the Burning Shadows set on August 5, 2017, with a rarity of Rare and a card number of 90. The Pokémon’s design is attributed to artist Mitsuhiro Arita, and its flavor text highlights its hypnotic influence over others. Malamar’s unique abilities emphasize its role in manipulating opponents through strategic energy management.
