Trivia

The card's Pokédex entry contradicts the anime episode Showdown in Dark City. In that episode, the Electabuzz species are depicted as becoming enraged at the color red, whereas this card's Pokédex entry states that Electabuzz likes red.

Origin

Light Screen and Quick Attack are both moves in the Pokémon games that Electabuzz can learn.

This article is part of Project TCG, a Bulbapedia project that aims to report on every aspect of the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
