What it does
Once during your turn (before your attack), when you attach a Lightning Energy card from your hand to Raikou, you may put 1 damage counter on 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon.
Discard 3 cards from the top of your deck. This attack does 50 damage plus 10 more damage for each Lightning Energy card you discarded. Then, attach those Lightning Energy cards to 1 of your Pokémon.
It is said to have fallen with lightning. It can fire thunderbolts from the rain clouds on its back.

Where it came from
The Raikou card from the Secret Wonders expansion, released in late 2007, represents the Electric-type iteration of the Legendary Beast trio within the Diamond & Pearl era of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for its emphasis on the Sinnoh region's mechanics, integrating Pokémon from the handheld games into the broader TCG landscape to maintain competitive relevance as the game evolved.
The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, whose work is characterized by a dynamic, painterly style that captures the ferocity of Legendary Pokémon. Saitou has been a prolific contributor to the series, and his design for this Raikou utilizes the holographic treatment of the era to highlight the character's signature storm-cloud-like mane, effectively balancing the aesthetic intensity of the subject with the functional layout required for gameplay.
