Unseen Forces Unown Collection / #M/28
Printed language: English · Pokémon
CARDEX BACKGROUND
On ancient tablets, Unown's shapes resemble carved symbols. Yet the Pokédex leaves a question unanswered: did these forms inspire language, or did writing exist before them? Each shape deepens the sense of reading a message without knowing how to decipher it. Unown's story lies in this mystery, somewhere between a living creature and a character from a forgotten alphabet.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.A lone Unown seems to cause no unusual phenomenon. According to the Pokémon Black Pokédex, a mysterious power appears when several gather together. This difference between being alone and being in a group adds another puzzle to their letter-like forms. The game describes the phenomenon without explaining exactly how it works.
Quoted source text is retained in the card’s printed language so this exact printing can be identified. The CarDex background above is translated into English.

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for another Unown and switch it with Unown. (Any cards attached to Unown, damage counters, Special Conditions, and effects on it are now on the new Pokémon.) If you do, put Unown on top of your deck. Shuffle your deck afterward. You can't use more than 1 Shuffle Poké-Power each turn.Cost: Psychic
Search your deck for a card that evolves from 1 of your Pokémon and put it on that Pokémon. (This counts as evolving that Pokémon.) If you do, put 1 damage counter on Unown. Shuffle your deck afterward.Versions reported by the source; identification for sales still needs verification.
