Unearth a relic from Pokémon's most notorious chapter with the Dark Electrode (34/82) from the Team Rocket expansion. This Uncommon Stage 1 Lightning-type card, first unleashed in 1999, captures the sinister essence of Team Rocket's twisted experiments. Evolving from Voltorb, this corrupted Pokémon crackles with unstable energy, its design a stark departure from the cheerful orbs players knew. Illustrated by the legendary Ken Sugimori, Dark Electrode's art is imbued with a dark, foreboding aura, making it a visually striking and highly sought-after piece for collectors of vintage Pokémon TCG.

Battling with 60 HP, Dark Electrode wields two distinct attacks. Its first, Rolling Tackle, deals a modest 10 damage. Its true power, however, lies in its second attack, Energy Bomb, which deals 30 damage and triggers a devastating strategic effect: you take all Energy cards attached to Dark Electrode and attach them to your Benched Pokémon in any way you choose. If you have no Benched Pokémon, the attached Energy is discarded. This high-risk, high-reward ability forces players to make critical decisions, sacrificing their own Energy setup for a powerful attack or a tactical transfer.

As a card from the infamous Team Rocket set, Dark Electrode represents a pivotal moment in the TCG's history, introducing the concept of "Dark" or "Unown" symbols and a darker narrative to the game. Whether you're a seasoned collector seeking to complete a vintage set, a fan of Team Rocket's legacy, or a player interested in the card's unique mechanics, this raw, ungraded card offers a direct connection to the early days of the Pokémon TCG. Its rarity, historical significance, and iconic status make it a valuable and evocative addition to any collection.
