Mr. Mime

Description

Designed by artist Hiroki Asanuma, this Basic stage card carries 70 Hit Points and serves as a strategic defensive option for collectors and players alike. The card is identified by the set code PLF and holds the Rare rarity status within the expansion. Mr. Mime’s design emphasizes its defensive capabilities through the Bench Barrier ability. This effect prevents all damage that would be done to your Benched Pokémon by attacks, making it a valuable tool for protecting your team’s resources during gameplay. Collectors appreciate this card for its unique protective mechanic, which stands out among other Psychic-type options in the TCG. In addition to its defensive prowess, the card offers an offensive capability with the attack Psy Bolt. This move deals 20 damage to the Defending Pokémon and includes a coin flip mechanic: if the result is heads, the opponent’s Pokémon becomes Paralyzed, potentially hindering their next turn. The retreat cost for this card is listed as 1 Colorless energy, allowing for relatively easy positioning on the field. Whether you are building a competitive team or focusing on set completion, this Mr. Mime card represents a key component of the 2013 expansion. Its distinct ability and attack profile make it a notable entry for any Pokémon Trading Card Game enthusiast looking to expand their roster with cards that offer both defensive utility and tactical depth.
