#206 Pikachu - SM Black Star Promos (smp)
Pikachu is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 60 HP. It features a single attack called Thunder Shock, which costs one Lightning and two Colorless Energy to deal 40 damage. The attack also includes a secondary effect that flips a coin, potentially paralyzing the opponent's Active Pokémon if heads. The card is part of the Sun & Moon series, specifically the SM Black Star Promos set, released on February 3, 2017. Designed by artist Akira Komayama, it reflects Pikachu's association with electricity through its flavor text, which notes its tendency to store lightning and the danger of forests where it resides. The Pokémon has a resistance to Metal-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, but is weak to Fighting-type attacks, which deal double damage. Its retreat cost is one Colorless Energy, making it relatively easy to deploy in gameplay.
