XY Black Star Promos

#75 Palkia - XY Black Star Promos (xyp)

Palkia is a Water-type Pokémon from the XY series, featured in the XY Black Star Promos set released on October 12, 2013. It has an HP of 120 and requires three Colorless Energy to retreat. The card’s flavor text describes it as a being capable of distorting space, referencing its role as a deity in Sinnoh-region mythology. Palkia has one weakness to Grass-type attacks, which deal double damage. Its primary attack, Wave Splash, costs one Water and one Colorless Energy to deal 30 damage. The secondary attack, Cross Slicer, demands two Water and one Colorless Energy, dealing 80 damage and preventing the opponent from attaching Energy cards from their hand to the Defending Pokémon during their next turn. The card is illustrated by artist Naoki Saito and carries a Promo rarity designation.
