Collector Insights

Xatu is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless Energy. It appears in the Sun & Moon series, specifically the Lost Thunder set, released on November 2, 2018. The card’s flavor text suggests it perceives both past and future simultaneously, adding depth to its lore. Xatu has two attacks: Energy Gaze, which costs two Colorless Energy and deals 30+ damage, and Psychic Sphere, requiring Psychic and two Colorless Energy to deal 80 damage. The Energy Gaze attack allows the player to check the opponent’s hand, dealing additional damage if Energy cards are found. Xatu’s weakness is to Psychic-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card is marked as Uncommon rarity and was designed by artist Ken Sugimori. Its design and mechanics reflect its thematic connection to foresight and temporal awareness.

They say that it stays still and quiet because it is seeing both the past and future at the same time.
