#26 Magnemite - Neo Discovery (neo2)
Magnemite is a Metal-type Pokémon from the Neo series, featured in the Neo Discovery set released in 2001. It has 40 HP and requires 1 Colorless Energy to retreat. The card resists Grass-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Fire-type attacks with double damage. Magnemite’s primary attack, Electric Bolt, costs 1 Lightning and 1 Colorless Energy, dealing 50 damage and potentially paralyzing the defending Pokémon if both coin flips result in heads. A secondary attack, Lock-on, uses 1 Colorless Energy to alter the outcome of future Electric Bolt attacks by treating tails as heads during the next turn. This effect ends if the Pokémon is benched or evolved. The card’s flavor text describes Magnemite as drawn to electrical emissions and often following individuals using PokéGear. Its design reflects a focus on electrical interactions and mobility within gameplay mechanics.
