Pokémon Trading Card Game Pinsir

This official Pokémon Trading Card Game card features Pinsir, the powerful Stag Beetle Pokémon, as a Grass-type Basic Pokémon. The detailed artwork by Uninori showcases Pinsir’s impressive, fearsome pincers, which according to its Pokédex entry are used to judge one another, with thicker pincers leading to greater popularity.

As a Basic Pokémon, Pinsir is a straightforward and potent attacker right from the start. Its single attack, Slash (cost: two Grass Energy and one Colorless Energy), deals a solid 60 damage for a reasonable energy investment, allowing it to trade favorably with many other Pokémon.

Classified as an Uncommon card (denoted by the diamond symbol), it has a robust 120 HP for a Basic Pokémon. It carries a Fire-type Weakness (x2), no Resistance, and a two-Colorless Energy Retreat Cost. This card is an excellent choice for Grass decks that need a reliable, heavy-hitting Basic Pokémon to apply early and mid-game pressure without requiring evolution.
