Once during your opponent's turn, when your opponent's Pokémon uses any Poké-Power, you may discard 2 cards from your hand and prevent all effects of that Poké-Power. (This counts as that Pokémon using its Poké-Power.) This power can't be used if Alakazam is affected by a Special Condition.

During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Alakazam by attacks from your opponent's Stage 2 Evolved Pokémon is reduced by 30 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).

Trivia

• This card later received an erratum to change the Psychic Guard attack by removing the word "Evolved", allowing damage done by Stage 2 Pokémon put into play through effects such as Garchomp LV.X's Restore attack to be reduced.
• Despite specifying that it evolves from Kadabra, during the formats this card was legal (the 2007-08 Modified format and 2008-10 Modified format), no Kadabra card was legal—the most recent printing of Kadabra was in Skyridge in 2003. Instead, the Mysterious Treasures Abra has the move Ultra Evolution, which allows it to evolve directly into Alakazam.
  • The lack of a Kadabra card is presumed to be due to a legal dispute with magician Uri Geller about Kadabra's similarity to him.
