Medicham is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 110 HP, featured in the Sword & Shield series’ Rebel Clash set, released on May 1, 2020. It bears the regulation mark D and is numbered 98, classified as an Uncommon rarity card. The Pokémon’s artwork is crafted by artist Suwama Chiaki, and its flavor text highlights a connection to yoga training, which grants it the ability to predict an opponent’s next move through psychic power. Medicham has a retreat cost of one Colorless energy and no resistances, making it vulnerable to Psychic-type attacks with a ×2 weakness. Its attacks include Yoga Kick, which costs a single Fighting energy to deal 40 damage without being influenced by Weakness or Resistance, and Psychic, a three Colorless energy attack that deals 60+ damage and adds 20 damage for each Energy attached to the opponent’s Active Pokémon. The card’s design emphasizes its Fighting-type identity while incorporating unique mechanics tied to its psychic abilities. This combination of straightforward attacks and specific weaknesses defines its gameplay role within the Pokémon TCG.
