Character info
The character
Unown is a Psychic-type Pokémon known as the Symbol Pokémon, first introduced in the Generation II games. Each Unown resembles a different letter of the alphabet, and it is said that the many forms were created through evolutionary adaptation, with each possessing a different ability. They are typically found within ancient ruins and are noted for their mysterious, symbolic nature rather than individual personality.
This card
This is Unown [L], card number 86 out of 105 from the Neo Destiny set, printed in 2001 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. It is a common rarity card in its shadowless variant, illustrated by CR CG gangs. The artwork shows the Unown's single eye and curved body set against a stone wall carved with other Unown symbols.
How it plays
Unown [L] is a Basic Pokémon with 50 HP. Its Pokémon Power, Laugh, can be used once during the turn before attacking: the player may flip a coin, and on heads each player shuffles their deck, and this power functions even if Unown is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. Its only attack, Hidden Power, costs one Psychic energy and deals 10 damage. It has a weakness to Psychic, no resistance listed, and a retreat cost of one energy.
