Oracle Text
Attack Lightning Turn (20): Switch Raikou ☆ with 1 of your Benched Pokémon.

Card Details
Character Background
Raikou Star in Unseen Forces feels like a Lightning legend built for flexible tempo, rewarding players who can pivot between pressure and preservation. Lightning Turn for 20 lets you hit early while also switching Raikou Star with a Benched Pokémon, making it excellent for retreat tricks, status dodging, and resetting a damaged Active without losing momentum. The real payoff is Meta Voltage, a 70-damage attack that becomes a comeback tool when you’re behind on Prize cards, but the self-damage to your own board means it fits best in a control-leaning tempo deck that can absorb trades and then swing back hard. Pair it with bulky Benched Pokémon, healing, or damage-spreading strategies that don’t mind light self-chip, and consider partners that benefit from repeated switching so Lightning Turn always has a target. It’s strongest when you stay just behind, then convert that disadvantage into a decisive counterattack.
