#99 Pikachu - Diamond & Pearl Promos (dpp)

Pikachu is a Pokémon TCG card from the Diamond & Pearl Promos set, released on December 1, 2006. Designed by Yuka Morii, the card features a unique artwork that complements its promotional status. This Promo rarity card has a number designation of 99. With a base HP of 60, Pikachu boasts two attacks that offer strategic versatility. The first attack, Shopping, requires one Colorless Energy to search the deck for any card and place it in the player's hand, then shuffle the deck. The second attack, Thunder, demands three Energy costs—two Lightning and one Colorless—to deal 60 damage. Upon activation, the player flips a coin; if tails, Pikachu inflicts 30 damage to itself. The card’s design and mechanics reflect its role in competitive play, balancing resource management and direct offense.
