#209 Hisuian Samurott VSTAR - Astral Radiance (swsh10)
Hisuian Samurott VSTAR is a Darkness-type Pokémon from the Sword & Shield series, featured in the Astral Radiance set released on May 27, 2022. It has 270 HP and a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. The card’s ability, Moon Cleave Star, allows the player to place four damage counters on an opponent’s Pokémon during their turn, with a restriction of using only one VSTAR Power per game. Its primary attack, Merciless Blade, costs two Darkness energy and deals 110+ damage, with an additional 110 boost if the opponent’s Active Pokémon already has damage counters. The card’s weakness is Grass-type attacks multiplied by two, making it vulnerable to such threats. As a Rare Secret card, it carries a unique rule: when the Pokémon VSTAR is Knocked Out, the opponent takes two Prize cards. The artwork is attributed to 5ban Graphics, and it bears the regulation mark F. This card’s design and mechanics reflect its role in competitive play, emphasizing strategic damage application and resource management.
