SNACK: 3-line summary
- The original English Fossil Gengar’s Curse moves one existing damage counter between opposing Pokémon.
- The once-per-turn Pokémon Power works before your attack and can cause a Knock Out.
- Its separate Dark Mind attack damages the Defending Pokémon and, if present, one opposing Benched Pokémon.
On the original English Fossil Gengar 5/62, a Knock Out can happen before you attack: its Curse Pokémon Power moves one existing damage counter between opposing Pokémon. This physical Pokémon TCG card has 80 HP, is a Stage 2 that evolves from Haunter, and features artwork by Keiji Kinebuchi.
Snackgirls react
Kirari: That grin is creepy in the best way. I’d want a close-up photo with Gengar’s expression filling the frame.
Nea: It’s the one-counter margin that interests me. I’d want to watch for the moment that tiny shift is enough for a Knock Out.
Where Curse can move that counter
Once during your turn, before your attack, Curse lets you move exactly one existing damage counter from one of your opponent’s Pokémon to another. Either Pokémon can be Active or Benched, and the move is allowed even if it Knocks Out the recipient.
Curse does not create a new damage counter or move one from your own Pokémon. You cannot use it if this Gengar is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.
Dark Mind deals its own damage
Dark Mind is a separate attack costing three Psychic Energy. It deals 30 damage to the Defending Pokémon.
If your opponent has any Benched Pokémon, choose one of them: Dark Mind also deals 10 damage to that Pokémon. Weakness and Resistance do not apply to this Bench damage.
