Poké-Power:
Shuffle
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for another Unown and switch it with Unown. (Any cards attached to Unown, damage counters, Special Conditions, and effects on it are now on the new Pokémon.) If you do, put Unown on top of your deck. Shuffle your deck afterward. You can't use more than 1 Shuffle Poké-Power each turn.
Attacks
- Hidden Power10


Choose 1 of the Defending Pokémon's attacks. That Pokémon can't use that attack during your opponent's next turn.
Artwork Description
The artwork on this card depicts Unown floating mysteriously in a cosmic, star-speckled void, its single eye wide and watchful, blending into a swirling background of dark reds and shimmering light spots that evoke magical energy.
Playability Overview
Unown offers unique deck manipulation and disruption by swapping itself for another Unown to control your draws and limit opponent attacks, making it a strategic tool for stalling and tactical interference rather than raw power.
