#50 Grumpig - XY (xy1)

Grumpig is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It appears in the XY series, released in February 2014, as part of the XY set. The card’s flavor text describes it as using black pearls to amplify psychic power and performing a strange dance to control foes' minds. Grumpig has two attacks: Tricky Steps, which costs one Psychic and one Colorless energy to deal 30 damage and allows moving an opponent’s Energy from their Active Pokémon to a Benched Pokémon, and Psybeam, requiring two Psychic and one Colorless energy to deal 60 damage while inflicting the Confused status on the opponent’s Active Pokémon. The card is numbered 50 and classified as Rare, with artwork by artist sui. It has no resistances but is weak to Psychic-type attacks, dealing double damage. Grumpig’s design and mechanics reflect its focus on psychological manipulation and strategic energy management.
