CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Pikachu's electricity is not only used to drive off opponents. When two Pikachu meet, they may touch tails and exchange electricity as a greeting. The gesture turns an impressive power into a sign of closeness. Behind the sparks and charged cheeks lies a way of getting acquainted that belongs to this small forest-dwelling Pokémon.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

Pikachu swsh10.5-028's Wild Charge deals 90 damage for two Lightning Energy and one Colorless. Pikachu also does 30 damage to itself on every use; no flip avoids that drawback. Narumi Sato illustrated this printing, whose large offensive number has an immediate HP cost.
