#79 Lucario - Brilliant Stars (swsh9)
Lucario is a Fighting-type Pokémon from the Sword & Shield series, featured in the Brilliant Stars set released on February 25, 2022. It has 120 HP and requires two Colorless Energy cards to retreat. The card includes the ability Roaring Resolve, which allows the player to place two damage counters on Lucario during their turn, then search their deck for a Fighting Energy card to attach to it before shuffling the deck. Its primary attack, Aura Sphere Volley, costs two Fighting Energy and deals 10+ damage, with additional effects that increase damage based on discarded Fighting Energy cards. The Pokémon’s weakness is to Psychic-type attacks, which deal double damage. Artist GIDORA’s design is inspired by Lucario’s ability to control auras that can pulverize large rocks, as described in the flavor text. This Rare Holo card carries number 79 and features the regulation mark F. The card’s strategic value lies in its energy manipulation and damage amplification mechanics.
