Collector Insights

Zacian is a Metal-type Pokémon with 130 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy and a regulation mark of D. It boasts two attacks: Crunch, which costs three Colorless energy to deal 60 damage and has a 50% chance to discard an Energy from the opponent’s Active Pokémon, and Metal Blade, requiring four Metal and one Colorless energy to strike for 190 damage while discarding three Energy from itself. The card resists Grass-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Fire-type moves multiplied by two. Its design incorporates a Metal type, aligning with its thematic focus on ancient weaponry, as suggested by its flavor text emphasizing a weapon from its past. Released as a Promo card in the Sword & Shield series under the SWSH Black Star Promos set on November 15, 2019, it is illustrated by artist Kouki Saitou. The card’s strategic versatility lies in its ability to leverage Energy manipulation and high-damage strikes, making it a notable inclusion in competitive play. Its rarity and set context highlight its significance as a promotional release within the series.

Now armed with a weapon it used in ancient times, this Pokémon needs only a single strike to fell even Gigantamax Pokémon.
