Pikachu is a Pokémon with 60 HP, featuring two distinct attacks. The first attack, Growl, requires one Colorless Energy and reduces damage by 10 if the Defending Pokémon attacks during the opponent’s next turn, provided Pikachu is not benched. The second attack, Thundershock, costs two Lightning Energy and deals 20 damage while flipping a coin to potentially paralyze the Defending Pokémon. The card was released in the Unnumbered Promos set on October 15, 1996, and is illustrated by Ken Sugimori. Its theme color is a warm golden hue, matching the set’s overall palette. The card’s design and mechanics reflect its role in early Pokémon TCG gameplay. It remains a notable entry in the series’ foundational collection.
