Thunderbolt

100

Discard all Energy attached to Raichu.

What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

  1. A strength

    It retreats for free. You can pull it back to the Bench whenever you like, even with no Energy on it at all.

  2. A strength

    Thunderbolt hits for 100 on 2 Energy. Nothing in HeartGold SoulSilver hits harder for that price.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read runs it. That does not make it a bad card — it means we have not seen it on a table yet.

  4. Keep in mind

    Weakness Fighting ×2. Against a Fighting Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 760 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

Who plays it

None of the tournament lists we have read mentions this card. That happens with a card that has just come out, or one players have not tried yet.

The other cards of this Pokémon

Two cards of the same Pokémon can be worth wildly different amounts — it depends on the set, the rarity and the artwork. We put all 76 Raichu cards on one page, priciest first.
