#49 Chinchou - Celestial Storm (sm7)

Chinchou is a Pokémon card from the Sun & Moon series, part of the Celestial Storm set released on August 3, 2018. It is numbered 49 and classified as a Common rarity card, featuring artwork by Aya Kusube. The card is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 60 HP, requiring one Colorless energy to retreat. It has a resistance to Metal-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, and a weakness to Fighting-type attacks, which deals double damage. Chinchou has two attacks: Pound, which costs one Colorless energy to deal 10 damage, and Spark, which uses one Lightning and one Colorless energy to deal 10 damage to two of the opponent's Benched Pokémon. The latter attack bypasses Weakness and Resistance for the affected Benched Pokémon. The card’s flavor text describes it as a creature that inhabits deep, lightless environments and uses its antennae to emit flashes of light for communication. Its design aligns with the series’ thematic focus on aquatic and celestial elements.
