'''Energy cards''' (Japanese: '''エネルギー''' ''Energy'') are the cards that power {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} attacks in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. A Pokémon cannot attack without the required energy attached to it. Under normal circumstances, a player can attach one Energy card to one of their Pokémon per turn. There are two different classes of Energy cards: Basic and Special.

Basic Energy cards (Japanese: '''基本エネルギー''' ''Basic Energy'') are defined as nine Energy cards that share their printed type with a Pokémon. They are the only cards that players are permitted to have more than 4 copies of in their decks (aside from {{TCG|Arceus}} which has its own Special Rule). Basic Energy cards always provide 1 of their printed type of Energy or 1 {{TCG|Colorless}} Energy, meaning that any basic Energy card can provide a Colorless Energy. There are no basic Energy cards that provide only 1 unit of Colorless Energy.

===List===
From the {{TCG|Base Set}} through to the {{TCG|EX Power Keepers}} expansion, the TCG featured 6 basic Energy: {{TCG|Grass}}, {{TCG|Fire}}, {{TCG|Water}}, {{TCG|Lightning}}, {{TCG|Psychic}}, and {{TCG|Fighting}}. {{TCG|Darkness}} and {{TCG|Metal}} Energy were initially only Special Energy cards until the release of the {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}} expansion, some six and a half years after the debut of their types in the {{TCG|Neo Genesis}} expansion. {{TCG|Fairy}} Energy cards began to be featured starting with the {{TCG|XY}} expansion following its debut in [[Generation VI]], but were no longer included from the {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} expansion following the cessation of Fairy-type Pokémon in the TCG.

==Special Energy cards==
==Special Energy cards==
Special Energy cards (Japanese: '''{{tt|特殊|とくしゅ}}エネルギー''' ''Special Energy'') are cards that provide more than one Energy of a specific type and/or have an additional effect besides providing Energy. Some may heal the Pokémon they're attached to, add damage to their attacks, or may even provide several different types of Energy at once. A majority of them provide only Colorless Energy; however, there are several which provide one or more of any type of Basic Energy. Unlike Basic Energy cards, no more than four can be in one deck at a time.
Special Energy cards (Japanese: '''{{tt|特殊|とくしゅ}}エネルギー''' ''Special Energy'') are cards that provide more than 1 Energy of a specific type and/or have an additional effect besides providing Energy. Some may heal the Pokémon they are attached to, add damage to their attacks, or may even provide several different types of Energy at once. Unlike basic Energy cards, no more than 4 can be included in a deck.

Revision as of 18:15, 29 March 2020

Energy cards (Japanese: エネルギー Energy) are the cards that power Pokémon attacks in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Under normal circumstances, a Pokémon cannot attack without the required Energy attached to it and a player can only attach 1 Energy card to 1 of their Pokémon per turn. There are currently 2 different classes of Energy cards: basic and Special.

Basic Energy cards

Basic Energy cards (Japanese: 基本エネルギー Basic Energy) are defined as the 9 Energy cards that share their printed type with a Pokémon. They are the only cards that players are permitted to have more than 4 copies of in their decks (aside from Arceus, which has its own Special Rule). Under normal circumstances, basic Energy cards provide 1 of their printed type of Energy. Any type of Energy can be used for Colorless Energy; there are no basic Energy cards that provide only 1 Colorless Energy.

Card name Provides
Grass Energy Grass or Colorless
Fire Energy Fire or Colorless
Water Energy Water or Colorless
Lightning Energy Lightning or Colorless
Psychic Energy Psychic or Colorless
Fighting Energy Fighting or Colorless
Darkness Energy Darkness or Colorless
Metal Energy Metal or Colorless
Fairy Energy Fairy or Colorless

From the Base Set through to the EX Power Keepers expansion, the TCG featured 6 basic Energy: Grass, Fire, Water, Lightning, Psychic, and Fighting. Darkness and Metal Energy were initially only Special Energy cards until the release of the Diamond & Pearl expansion, some six and a half years after the debut of their types in the Neo Genesis expansion. Fairy Energy cards began to be featured starting with the XY expansion following its debut in Generation VI, but were no longer included from the Sword & Shield expansion following the cessation of Fairy-type Pokémon in the TCG.

Special Energy cards

Special Energy cards (Japanese: 特殊エネルギー Special Energy) are cards that provide more than 1 Energy of a specific type and/or have an additional effect besides providing Energy. Some may heal the Pokémon they are attached to, add damage to their attacks, or may even provide several different types of Energy at once. Unlike basic Energy cards, no more than 4 can be included in a deck.
