What it does
Whenever a Colorless Pokémon damages 1 of your Pokémon, reduce that damage by 30 (after applying Weakness and Resistance). This power stops working if you have more than 1 Unown [N] in play. (This power works even if Unown [N] is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.)
You may have up to 4 Basic Pokémon cards in your deck with Unown in their names.
Their shapes look like hieroglyphs on ancient tablets. It is said that the two are somehow related.

Where it came from
Unown [N] was released as part of the Neo Discovery expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, which debuted in the year 2001. This set was the second installment in the Neo series, designed to introduce players to the Johto region and the unique mechanics of the second generation of Pokémon games. The Unown cards are particularly notable for their distinctive design, featuring the mysterious, letter-shaped creatures originally discovered in the Ruins of Alph within the game lore.
The artwork for this specific card was rendered by Atsuko Nishida, an influential illustrator who has contributed significantly to the aesthetic identity of the franchise. Nishida’s approach to the Unown cards leaned into their cryptic, archaeological nature, emphasizing their resemblance to ancient glyphs. Upon release, the set was well-received for expanding the depth of the game’s card pool, though the Unown cards themselves were primarily sought after by collectors aiming to complete the full alphabet collection rather than for competitive play.
