Designed by tetsuya koizumi, this Basic Pokémon card operates with 260 HP and utilizes the Lightning type, offering strategic depth for deck builders.

Tandem Shock allows for significant damage output, particularly if the Pokémon was on the Bench, potentially paralyzing the opponent's Active Pokémon. Meanwhile, Lightning Ride-GX offers a unique switching mechanic that can deal substantial damage if additional Lightning Energy is attached. Collectors value this card not only for its gameplay potential but also for its place within the Unified Minds expansion. As an Ultra Rare with a Holo finish, it stands out in any binder or collection box. The duality of Raichu and its Alolan variant is a popular theme in the Pokémon franchise, making this card a favorite among those who appreciate both the lore and the mechanics of the TCG. Whether you are focusing on completing the set or building a competitive deck, Raichu & Alolan Raichu-GX #221 offers a compelling combination of art, strategy, and rarity. The card's design and abilities have made it a memorable part of the 2019 release, appealing to both casual collectors and serious TCG players. Its status as an Ultra Rare ensures it remains a sought-after piece for those looking to add a high-quality card to their portfolio. The card's retreat cost of 2 also adds to its strategic flexibility, allowing players to manage their bench effectively during matches.
