What it does
You may use this power once during each of your turns (before your attack). All Lightning Energy attached to your Active Pokémon becomes Water Energy for the rest of the turn. (This effect ends if your Active Pokémon retreats or is returned to your hand.) This power can't be used if Lanturn is affected by a Special Condition.
This attack does 20 damage plus 10 damage for each Lightning Energy attached to Lanturn. Flip a coin. If tails, Lanturn does 10 damage to itself for each Lightning Energy attached to it.

Where it came from
Released in January 2003 as part of the Aquapolis expansion, this card was a notable addition to the e-Card Series era of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. The set is historically significant for its integration with the Nintendo e-Reader peripheral, which allowed players to scan the dot-code on the card borders to unlock supplemental content, sound effects, or minigames on a Game Boy Advance.
The artwork was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, a prolific and iconic artist in the Pokémon franchise. Arita utilized a distinct, layered artistic style to capture Lanturn’s bioluminescent nature, emphasizing the creature's dwelling in the deep ocean. The card was well-received by collectors for its inclusion of the 'Crystal Type' mechanical aesthetic and its place in a set that marked a sophisticated, albeit short-lived, intersection between physical cardboard gaming and early digital connectivity.
