#238 Pikachu ex - Surging Sparks (sv8)

Pikachu ex is a Pokémon TCG card from the Scarlet & Violet series, part of the Surging Sparks set released on November 8, 2024. It is classified as a Lightning-type Pokémon with 200 HP and a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. The card features a Special Illustration Rare rarity and bears the regulation mark H. Its ability, Resolute Heart, prevents it from being Knocked Out when it has full HP, reducing its remaining HP to 10 instead. The primary attack, Topaz Bolt, costs Grass, Lightning, and Metal energy to deal 300 damage and requires discarding three Energy cards from the active Pokémon. Additional rules state that if Pikachu ex is Knocked Out, the opponent takes two Prize cards, and as a Tera Pokémon, it prevents all damage to itself while on the Bench. The card is weak to Fighting-type attacks, which deal double damage.
