Collector Insights

Hex Maniac is a Supporter card from the XY Promos set, released on August 1, 2013. It carries a Promo rarity and is numbered 173 in the set. The card was illustrated by artist Yusuke Ohmura. Its flavor text highlights a strategic disruption by temporarily disabling abilities of all Pokémon in play, hands, and discard piles until the opponent's next turn. The card's unique effect targets multiple zones simultaneously, affecting both active and inactive Pokémon. As a Supporter type, it serves as a utility card rather than a direct attacker. The absence of listed HP and attacks aligns with its role as a game-altering support card. This card's design emphasizes tactical control through conditional ability suppression.

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.)
