#189 Melmetal - Fusion Strike (swsh8)
Melmetal is a Metal-type Pokémon with 150 HP, featuring a retreat cost of four Colorless energy. It belongs to the Sword & Shield series, released in the Fusion Strike set on November 12, 2021. The card’s number is 189, and it is classified as a Rare Holo with regulation mark E. Melmetal has a resistance to Grass-type attacks, reducing damage by 30, and a weakness to Fire-type attacks, which deal double damage. Its two attacks, Ingot Swing and Blasting Hammer, offer distinct strategic options. Ingot Swing costs three energy (Metal and two Colorless) to deal 80 damage, granting protection against all damage from Pokémon with Abilities during the opponent’s next turn. Blasting Hammer requires four energy (two Metal and two Colorless) to strike for 150 damage, forcing the player to discard an Energy from Melmetal. The card’s flavor text reflects its mythic origins, hinting at its ancient role in forging iron and its unexpected revival after millennia.
