Energy cards are the cards that power Pokémon attacks in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Without the required Energy cards attached, a Pokémon cannot use these attacks. Energy cards come in Basic and Special forms.
Basic Energy cards
Basic Energy cards are defined as eight Energy cards that share their printed type with a Pokémon. They are the only cards that players are allowed to have more than four of in their decks. Basic Energy cards always provide their printed type of Energy, as well as Colorless. However, there is no basic Energy card yet that provides only Colorless Energy.
