[Update 25 Apr 2025] This card is now part of a new variant of the N’s Zoroark ex deck, serving as half of a combo with the Binding Mochi card from Night Wanderer [SV6a] that allows the N’s Zoroark ex card from Battle Partners [SV9] to boost its damage output.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

[Update 16 Sep 2024] This card has become a key part of the Roaring Moon ex deck. By way of Subjugating Chains, its Ability, Pecharunt ex adds flexibility by rotating the player’s Pok\u00e9mon to set up advantageous matchups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main villain of the Teal Mask, the first DLC of the Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet video games, Mythical Pok\u00e9mon Pecharunt used its Toxic Chains to fulfill the wishes of the so-called “Loyal Three”\u2014Munkidori, Okidogi, and Fezandipiti\u2014while also forcing them to do its bidding. Since Night Wanderer [SV6a]<\/a> is largely centered on the events of The Teal Mask, Pecharunt ex is thus one of the set’s standout cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right off the bat, the lore regarding Pecharunt makes itself obvious on this Special Art Rare (SAR) card. Pecharunt ex’s Toxic Chains can be seen all around it. There are even Toxic Chains emerging from both halves of its open shell, resembling arms and thus making it even more obvious that Pecharunt ex is controlling those Toxic Chains. The dark background is also relevant; in addition to providing the imagery with a foreboding, ominous vibe, it also references how the truth about Pecharunt, Ogerpon, and the Loyal Three has been obscured and warped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those who are well-versed in Japanese folklore, there’s a bonus point to pick up on. Considering its peach-like shape and motif, the three Pok\u00e9mon under it, and the fact that the Loyal Three fought Ogerpon, Pecharunt is clearly implied to be the Pok\u00e9mon universe’s evil counterpart of Momotar\u014d. This adds a layer which could appeal to some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While this card’s place in the metagame is yet to be determined, one gameplay-related factor that many will find appealing about Pecharunt ex is its synergy with Okidogi ex. Its Ability allows the player to place any Dark-type Pok\u00e9mon, such as Okidogi ex, in the Active spot; however, that Pok\u00e9mon will now be poisoned. With Okidogi ex, though, this is a good thing because its Crazy Chain attack deals double damage when it’s poisoned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This card isn’t yet out in English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A copy of a Pecharunt ex (Night Wanderer [SV6a] 090\/064) card of SAR rarity has a price tag of 3,800 JPY (~US$24).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
