What it does
Once during your opponent's turn, when your opponent's Pokémon uses any Poké-Power, you may discard 2 cards from your hand and prevent all effects of that Poké-Power. (This counts as that Pokémon using its Poké-Power.) This power can't be used if Alakazam is affected by a Special Condition.
During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Alakazam by attacks from your opponent's Stage 2 Evolved Pokémon is reduced by 30 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).
Its superb memory lets it recall everything it has experienced from birth. Its IQ exceeds 5,000.

Where it came from
The Alakazam card from the Mysterious Treasures expansion, released in 2007, represents a period when the Pokémon Trading Card Game was revitalized by the mechanics introduced in the Diamond & Pearl era. As a psychic-type Pokémon, Alakazam was a staple of the set's high-tier pulls, featuring the 'holo-rare' treatment that was highly coveted by collectors during this mid-2000s renaissance. Its placement as card number 2/123 highlights its significance within the set's roster, reflecting the strategic emphasis on powerful evolved stage-two Pokémon prevalent in that era of gameplay.
The design of this iteration centers on a dynamic illustration that captures the character's intellectual and telepathic themes, staying consistent with the artistic direction of the Nintendo and Creatures Inc. design teams. The artwork emphasizes the character's signature spoons and intense gaze, aiming to convey both psychic prowess and the aesthetic evolution of the game's visuals during the transition to the Sinnoh region setting. It was received by the player base as a formidable utility card, often utilized for its ability to manipulate damage counters on the field.
