Collector Insights

Hex Maniac is a Supporter card from the The Best of XY set, released on April 21, 2017. It is numbered 140 and illustrated by Yusuke Ohmura. The card’s flavor text describes a scenario where, until the end of the opponent’s next turn, all Pokémon in play, in each player’s hand, and in each player’s discard pile lose their Abilities. This effect applies to cards that enter play during that turn as well. The card’s unique mechanic temporarily neutralizes strategic advantages tied to Abilities. It serves as a disruptive tool in gameplay by limiting opponents’ flexibility. The design emphasizes tactical disruption through conditional effects. Its presence in the XY series highlights creative approaches to game interaction.

Until the end of your opponent's next turn, each Pokémon in play, in each player's hand, and in each player's discard pile has no Abilities. (This includes cards that come into play on that turn.)
