There’s nothing wrong with keeping Pikachu (71/99) in your deck just because the Mouse Pokémon is so darn cute. But your opponent better take Pikachu seriously, because the Lightning-type Pokémon can deliver a shockingly powerful attack, too! Pikachu’s Mega Shot attack lets you take aim at any of the opponent’s Pokémon to do 40 damage. In the process, you have to discard all Lightning Energy you have attached to Pikachu; the attack requires 1 Lightning Energy and 2 Colorless Energy, so if you play it right, you’ll need to discard only one Energy per attack! Pikachu might be adorable, but with attacks like Mega Shot, all your opponent will experience is a less-than-cute Knock Out!
