#76 Malamar - XY (xy1)
Malamar is a Darkness-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featured in the XY series as part of the XY set released on February 5, 2014. It has a retreat cost of one Colorless energy and is classified as a Rare card. The artwork was created by 5ban Graphics, and its flavor text highlights its ability to exert control over others through hypnotic influence. Malamar’s attacks include Mental Trash, which costs one Darkness energy and forces the opponent to discard cards from their hand after flipping four coins, and Distortion Beam, requiring three energy to deal 30 damage while also inducing either Sleep or Confusion on the opponent’s Active Pokémon. The card resists Psychic-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks with double damage. Its design reflects a balance between strategic disruption and direct combat effectiveness. This card offers players opportunities to manipulate opponents’ resources or disrupt their turn through conditional effects.
