#73 Elgyem - BREAKthrough (xy8)

Elgyem is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 50 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. Its sole attack, Psych Up, requires one Psychic energy to deal 10 damage and grants a bonus of 20 additional damage during the next turn. The card is part of the XY series, released in the BREAKthrough set on November 4, 2015. It is classified as a Common rarity card and is illustrated by artist Aya Kusube. The Pokémon’s flavor text hints at a mysterious origin tied to a UFO crash site in a desert, suggesting a lore connection to unexplained phenomena. Elgyem’s weaknesses include a ×2 multiplier to Psychic-type attacks, making it vulnerable to such threats. The card’s design and mechanics reflect its role in the game’s tactical framework without additional context.
