Illumise is a Grass-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a Fire weakness that deals double damage. Its retreat cost requires one Colorless energy, and it has no resistances. The card includes two attacks: Pheromotion, which costs a single Grass energy to search the deck for a Grass Pokémon and add it to the hand, and Quick Attack, which uses Grass and Colorless energy to deal 20+ damage, with an additional 20 damage if a coin flip lands heads. Illumise’s flavor text describes its ability to attract a swarm of Volbeat, creating over 200 patterns in the night sky. The card is part of the XY series, released in February 2014, and is numbered 9 in its set. It is classified as Uncommon rarity and was illustrated by artist Kanako Eo. The card’s design and mechanics align with its Grass-type identity, emphasizing its role in strategic gameplay through its unique abilities.
