Collector Insights

Starmie is a Pokémon with 80 HP, featuring two distinct attacks. The first attack, Energy Burst, costs one Psychic Energy and deals 10 damage multiplied by the number of Energy cards attached to Starmie and the defending Pokémon, with a 50% chance to activate its full effect. The second attack, Star Back, requires two Colorless and one Psychic Energy, dealing 40 damage while allowing the player to attach a basic Energy card from their discard pile to one of their Pokémon. This card is part of the Split Earth set, released in August 2002, and is classified as a Rare Holo variant. Its design is attributed to artist Hajime Kusajima, and it carries the number 45 in the set’s catalog. The card’s mechanics emphasize strategic resource management through its Energy-based attacks and discard-pile interactions. As a staple in competitive play, Starmie’s versatility in both offense and support roles has made it a notable inclusion in the Split Earth expansion.
