#9 Magneton - Base Set 2 (base4)
Magneton is a Lightning-type Pokémon with 60 HP and a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It has no resistances and is weak to Fighting-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card features two attacks: Thunder Wave, which costs two Lightning and one Colorless energy to deal 30 damage and may paralyze the defending Pokémon, and Selfdestruct, requiring four Energy to deal 80 damage while also harming each player's Bench. Magneton’s flavor text describes it as formed by several Magnemites linked together and notes its frequent appearance during sunspots. The card was released in the Base Set 2 in February 2000 and is classified as a Rare Holo. Artist Keiji Kinebuchi designed the card, and its theme color is a warm gold. This Pokémon’s design aligns with its role as a magnetic, multi-unit creature in the game.
