Collector Insights

Palkia is a Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring two distinct attacks. Its first attack, Spacial Rend, costs a single Water energy and deals 10 damage. This move allows the player to search their deck for a Stadium card, reveal it to their opponent, and place it in their hand before shuffling their deck. If any Stadium card is already in play, it is discarded. The second attack, Transback, requires three energy—two Water and one Colorless—to deal 40 damage. This move grants the player a coin flip opportunity; if heads, all Energy attached to Palkia is discarded, and the Defending Pokémon along with any attached cards are placed on top of the opponent’s deck, which is then shuffled. The card was released as a Promo rarity in the Diamond & Pearl Promos set on December 1, 2006, and was illustrated by Daisuke Ito. Its design and mechanics reflect strategic interactions with Stadium cards and energy manipulation. The card’s abilities emphasize conditional effects tied to specific game states.
