Thunder Lance, on the other hand, deals a base damage of 50, and, for every electric energy that has been attached to Raikou, it deals a further 20 damage, all for the cost of 3-colorless energy cards. Used in synergy with Max Elixir, Raikou becomes simply unstoppa

Booster packs, while also available from release day, are random packs of ~10 cards from a particular expansion. In most cases, a booster pack is guaranteed to contain at least one reverse holographic card, and one "rare" card, with the possibility of more.

Slowking is a Basic pokémon with 80 HP that belongs to the Neo Genesis expansion. While it does have an ability called Mind Blast, the most relevant ability of this card is its Poké-power Mind Games.
