Alakazam holds the prestigious #1 spot in Base Set, making it the very first Pokemon card in the original English expansion. This psychic-type is known for its incredible intelligence, with an IQ over 5,000 and a brain that never stops growing. The card's "Damage Swap" ability allowed strategic damage redistribution in competitive play. Alakazam is notorious for centering issues due to its border design, making well-centered examples particularly challenging to find.
Pokémon Power: Damage Swap As often as you like during your turn (before your attack), you may move 1 damage counter from 1 of your Pokémon to another as long as you don't Knock Out that Pokémon. This power can't be used if Alakazam is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.
