#71 Magneton - Mysterious Mountains (mysterious-mountains)
Magneton is a Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring two attacks and a Rare rarity. Its first attack, Bounce Off, costs two Colorless Energy and deals 20 damage. The effect swaps the Active Pokémon with a Benched Pokémon if Magneton and the defending Pokémon have differing numbers of attached Energy cards. The second attack, Magnetic Wave, requires two Metal and one Colorless Energy, dealing 30 damage plus 10 multiplied by the difference between the player’s and opponent’s Benched Pokémon count. This attack’s damage calculation example illustrates its dynamic impact based on Benched Pokémon numbers. The card was released in the Mysterious Mountains set on October 4, 2002, and is illustrated by artist Kouki Saitou. Magneton’s design emphasizes its metallic attributes through its attack mechanics and energy cost structure. The card’s text highlights strategic interactions between Energy attachments and Benched Pokémon positioning.
