If Magneton and the Defending Pokémon don't have the same number of Energy cards attached to them, the player controlling the Active Pokémon with the fewest number of Energy cards attached to it switches 1 of his or her Benched Pokémon with his or her Active Pokémon.
- Magnetic Wave30+



This attack does 30 damage plus 10 damage times the number of your Benched Pokémon minus the number of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (For example, if your opponent has 1 Benched Pokémon and you have 3, this attack will do 30 damage plus 20 more damage.)
Artwork Description
The artwork on this card depicts Magneton soaring through a cloudy sky, its three metallic spheres gleaming with embedded screws, radiating an aura of electric energy amidst floating stone structures, evoking a sense of magnetic power and motion.
Playability Overview
Magneton's abilities encourage strategic bench management and energy balancing, rewarding careful setup for increased damage and tactical swapping to disrupt your opponent’s formation.
Binder Inspiration
Main Binder Theme: Electric SurgeThis Magneton artwork has a dynamic energy to it, with its floating magnets and the electrifying background. It would fit well on a "Techno Vibes" page alongside other Electric types. The colors pop, so pairing it with cards featuring bright blues or yellows will enhance the overall impact.Additional Binder Suggestions: City / Energetic / Vibrant / Magnetism / Electric Field
