Pokémon Trading Card Game Hawlucha

This official Pokémon Trading Card Game card features Hawlucha, the independent Wrestling Pokémon, as a Fighting-type Basic Pokémon. The artwork captures Hawlucha’s proud and solitary nature, reflecting its Pokédex lore where it lives quietly alone and fights constantly with its natural enemies, noisy groups of Primeape.

Hawlucha is a specialized attacker designed to counter high-value targets. Its single attack, Rising Tackle (cost: one Fighting Energy), deals a base of 10 damage. However, its true power is revealed against top-tier threats: “If your opponent’s Active Pokémon is a Pokémon ex, this attack does 50 more damage.” This allows it to hit Pokémon ex for a total of 60 damage for just one Energy, making it an incredibly efficient counter.

Classified as a Common card (denoted by the circle symbol), it has 80 HP. It carries a Psychic-type Weakness (x2), a Darkness-type Resistance (-30), and no Retreat Cost, reflecting its aerial mobility. This card is an excellent tech inclusion in any Fighting deck, providing a low-cost, high-reward answer to the powerful Pokémon ex that dominate the metagame.
