Crimson Invasion

#49 Nihilego-GX - Crimson Invasion (sm4)

Nihilego-GX is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 180 HP and a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It features the ability Empty Light, which allows the player to leave both Active Pokémon Confused and Poisoned when played from their hand onto the Bench during their turn. The card includes two attacks: Lock Up, which costs three Psychic energy to deal 120 damage and prevents the Defending Pokémon from retreating during the opponent’s next turn, and Symbiont-GX, a powerful attack requiring three Psychic energy that adds the top two cards of the opponent’s deck to their Prize cards, though it can only be used once per game. Nihilego-GX’s weaknesses make it vulnerable to Psychic-type attacks with double damage. The card’s rules specify that if the Pokémon-GX is Knocked Out, the opponent takes two Prize cards. It belongs to the Sun & Moon series, released in the Crimson Invasion set in 2017, and is numbered 49 with a rarity of Rare Holo GX. The artwork is credited to 5ban Graphics, and its design emphasizes its role as a high-impact strategic threat within the game’s mechanics.
