Collector Insights
Pikachu is a Pokémon card with a printed HP of 70. It features artwork by Kanako Eo and was released as part of the Platinum Promos set on October 1, 2008. The card carries a Promo rarity and is categorized under the Pokémon supertype. Its attacks include Recharge, which costs one Colorless energy and allows the player to flip a coin. If the result is heads, the player searches their deck for a Lightning Energy card, attaches it to Pikachu, and shuffles their deck afterward. The second attack, Thunderbolt, requires four Energy (two Lightning and two Colorless) and deals 100 damage while discarding all Energy attached to Pikachu. These abilities define its strategic interactions during gameplay.
