Rotom V
Lost Origin

#177 Rotom V - Lost Origin (swsh11)

Rotom V is a Lightning-type Pokémon V with 190 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. Its primary attack, Scrap Short, requires two Lightning energy to deal 40+ damage and allows the player to place any number of Pokémon Tool cards from their discard pile into the Lost Zone, increasing damage by 40 per card placed. The card includes the ability Instant Charge, which lets the player draw three cards once per turn, though this ends the turn immediately. Rotom V has no resistances but is weak to Fighting-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card’s rule states that if Rotom V is Knocked Out, the opponent takes two Prize cards. It was released in the Sword & Shield series as part of the Lost Origin set on September 9, 2022. The card is classified as a Rare Ultra and is illustrated by artist Yuu Nishida. Its design emphasizes high offensive potential through its combination of energy costs and damage modifiers.
