Ampharos V

Description

Ampharos V #171 is a standout Ultra Rare card from the 2020 Vivid Voltage Pokémon Trading Card Game set. Designed by PLANETA Mochizuki, this Lightning-type Basic Pokémon brings a formidable 210 HP to the battlefield. It is part of the growing Vivid Voltage collection, appealing to trainers who appreciate high-impact Pokémon with substantial durability. The card features two distinct attacks that offer both control and damage potential. Dazzle Blast requires one Lightning, one Colorless, and one Lightning energy to activate, confusing the opponent's Active Pokémon for 50 damage. This status effect can disrupt enemy strategies and create openings for follow-up strikes. For pure offensive power, Damaging Spark demands two Lightning and one Colorless energy to deal 120 damage. Uniquely, this attack also inflicts 30 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon that already has damage counters on it, making it highly effective in multi-target scenarios. For collectors, Ampharos V represents a key piece of the Vivid Voltage era, which emphasized shiny and vibrant Pokémon designs. The Ultra Rare classification and Holo finish make it a desirable addition for set builders and those focusing on the Lightning type. Whether you are completing the VIV set code collection or building a competitive deck around status effects and bench damage, this card offers versatile gameplay mechanics. This card remains a popular choice for those who value both aesthetic appeal and functional versatility in their Pokémon TCG collections.
