#77 Buzzwole - Forbidden Light (sm6)

Buzzwole is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 130 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It appears in the Sun & Moon series, specifically the Forbidden Light set, released on May 4, 2018. The card’s artwork is by Masakazu Fukuda, and its flavor text describes a mysterious Ultra Beast capable of crushing a dump truck with a single punch. Buzzwole has two attacks: Sledgehammer, which costs one Fighting energy and deals 30+ damage, and Swing Around, requiring three energy (two Fighting and one Colorless) for 80+ damage. The Sledgehammer attack increases damage by 90 if the opponent has exactly four Prize cards remaining, while Swing Around adds 20 damage per heads from flipping two coins. The Pokémon has no resistances and is weak to Psychic-type attacks multiplied by two. Its design emphasizes raw power through specialized energy costs and conditional damage boosts.
