Pokémon Trading Card Game Scream Tail

This official Pokémon Trading Card Game card features Scream Tail, a mysterious Paradox Pokémon from the ancient past, as a Psychic-type Basic Pokémon. The artwork captures its unsettling, primal appearance, a creature that seems to resemble a known Pokémon but with eerie distortions.

Scream Tail is an aggressive risk-reward attacker. Its first attack, Slap (cost: one Psychic Energy), is a simple 30 damage move. Its second attack, Roaring Scream (cost: one Psychic Energy and one Colorless Energy), has variable power: it “does 20 damage to 1 of your opponent’s Pokémon for each damage counter on this Pokémon.” This means the more damage Scream Tail has taken, the more powerful its counterattack becomes, potentially hitting for massive damage.

Classified as an Uncommon card (denoted by the diamond symbol), it has 90 HP. It carries a Darkness-type Weakness (x2), a useful Fighting-type Resistance (-30), and a one-Colorless Energy Retreat Cost. This Ancient Pokémon is a perfect fit for decks that can manage its HP or benefit from taking damage, turning its own wounds into a devastating weapon.
