#12 Tyranitar - Neo Discovery (neo2)
Tyranitar is a Darkness-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of three Colorless energy. It appears in the Neo Discovery set as card number 12, released in June 2001, and is classified as a Rare Holo. The card’s artwork is by artist Hironobu Yoshida, and its theme revolves around a Pokémon that thrives on confrontations. Tyranitar has two attacks: Slam, which costs three Colorless energy and deals 30 damage multiplied by the number of heads from two flipped coins, and Trample, requiring two Darkness and two Colorless energy to deal 50 damage plus 30 to each Benched Pokémon. The Trample attack also bypasses Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon. Tyranitar resists Psychic-type attacks by 30 damage but has no listed weaknesses. Its design emphasizes a resilient, battle-ready demeanor through its abilities and statistical profile.
