About this card
Sparkling Tail lands its 100 damage flat, ignoring Weakness, Resistance and any other effect on the opponent's Active Pokemon. Thunder Rod digs four cards deep and attaches whatever Lightning Energy it turns up. Behind the Pokemon the sky is deep violet, torn open by yellow bolts, with the tail orb held out at the left edge.
