#39 Xurkitree - Forbidden Light (sm6)

Xurkitree is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 120 HP. It features a retreat cost of one Colorless energy and a resistance to Metal-type attacks that reduces damage by 20. The card’s flavor text describes it as an entity that emerged from the Ultra Wormhole and is associated with raiding power plants, implying a connection to electricity. Xurkitree has two attacks: Dazzle Blast, which costs a single Lightning energy to deal 20 damage and inflicts the Confused status condition on the opponent’s Active Pokémon, and Cablegram, requiring two Lightning and one Colorless energy to deal 100 damage while applying Paralysis if the player has exactly three Prize cards remaining. The card’s artist is Shin Nagasawa, and it belongs to the Sun & Moon series, released in May 2018 as part of the Forbidden Light set. Its weaknesses include Fighting-type attacks that deal double damage. Xurkitree’s design emphasizes its electrical attributes through its typing and attack mechanics.
