Shinx

Description

This Basic stage Pokémon features 50 HP and is illustrated by artist Shibuzoh, contributing to the visual identity of the Ultra Prism expansion. The card's distinct gameplay mechanic, Evolutionary Advantage, allows it to evolve during the first turn if the player goes second, providing a strategic advantage in early-game scenarios. This ability makes the card particularly interesting for builders looking to streamline their evolution paths or those interested in the tactical depth of the Lightning type. The attack Lightning Static Shock deals 10 damage, while the retreat cost remains manageable at one colorless energy. Shinx serves as a gateway to more powerful electric types, making this card a notable entry for enthusiasts tracking the lineage of electric-type Pokémon. The card's design and mechanics reflect the strategic nuances introduced in the 2018 release, appealing to both casual players and serious collectors who value the historical context of the Ultra Prism series. Whether you are completing a set or focusing on specific type alignments, this card represents a key component of the Pokémon TCG's evolving meta.
