#21 Haunter - Fossil (base3)

Haunter is a Psychic-type Pokémon from the Base series, released as part of the Fossil set on October 10, 1999. It has 50 HP and a converted retreat cost of 0, allowing it to remain in play without requiring energy to retreat. The card features a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 30. Its ability, Transparency, lets it flip a coin whenever an attack targets it; if heads, the attack’s effects, including damage, are nullified. This ability becomes inactive if Haunter is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. Haunter’s sole attack, Nightmare, costs one Psychic and one Colorless energy, dealing 10 damage and putting the defending Pokémon to sleep. The card’s flavor text references its ability to slip through block walls, suggesting a connection to other dimensions. Designed by artist Ken Sugimori, the card carries a rarity of Rare and a theme color of #986b84.
