Collector Insights

Flying Pikachu is a Pokémon card with 40 HP, featuring two distinct attacks. Its first attack, Thundershock, costs a single Lightning energy and deals 10 damage. When used, it flips a coin, potentially paralyzing the defending Pokémon if heads. The second attack, Fly, requires three Colorless energies and deals 30 damage. This attack also involves a coin flip, where heads prevents all effects of attacks on Flying Pikachu during the opponent's next turn, while tails renders the attack ineffective. The card was released as part of the Unnumbered Promos set on October 15, 1996. Artist Toshinao Aoki designed the card, which has a theme color of #b8b97f. It is numbered 19 in its set, though rarity details are unspecified. The card's design and mechanics reflect its thematic connection to aerial movement and electrical attacks.
