Description
Released in 2007 as card number 3 in the Diamond & Pearl set, Electivire stands as a formidable Lightning-type Stage 1 Pokémon within the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Evolving from Electabuzz, this creature brings significant offensive pressure to any deck, boasting 100 Hit Points and a design that emphasizes its raw electrical power. The card’s Holo Rare finish, illustrated by Nakaoka, captures the electric nature of the character while maintaining the distinct visual style of the early Diamond & Pearl era. Electivire’s gameplay revolves around its Intense Voltage ability and Giga Impact attack. The ability allows players to move Lightning Energy from the bench to Electivire as often as desired during their turn, provided Elekid is attached beneath it. This flexibility ensures consistent energy attachment, a critical factor for maintaining momentum in competitive play. The Giga Impact attack offers a high-risk, high-reward option: by discarding all attached Lightning Energy, the damage output doubles from 60 to 120. This mechanic rewards strategic resource management and positions Electivire as a key attacker in Lightning-based strategies. Collectors value this card not only for its gameplay utility but also for its place in the foundational Diamond & Pearl expansion. As one of the earliest Electivire cards, it holds historical significance for fans of the series. The card’s straightforward yet impactful design makes it a staple for those building classic Pokémon decks or seeking to complete the early Diamond & Pearl set. Whether you are a seasoned player looking to optimize your Lightning deck or a collector appreciating the nostalgia of the 2007 era, Electivire remains a standout choice. Its combination of reliable energy manipulation and devastating attack potential continues to make it a sought-after card among enthusiasts. The card’s enduring appeal lies in its ability to deliver consistent damage while fitting seamlessly into the broader narrative of the Pokémon universe. ## Sources - Pokémon TCG Catalog —.pokemon.com/en-us/carddatabase/card/electivire-102

Abilities, attacks, oracle text, and flavor text printed on the card.
Ability: Intense Voltage
As often as you like during your turn (before your attack), if Elekid is anywhere under Electivire, you may move a Lightning Energy attached to your Pokémon to Electivire. This power can't be used if Electivire is affected by a Special Condition.
Attack: Giga Impact (60)
You may discard all Lightning Energy attached to Electivire. If you do, this attack's base damage is 120 instead of 60.
It pushes the tips of its two tails against the foe, then lets loose with over 20,000 volts of power.
