The cost is Lightning, Colorless. Does 10 damage to each Pokémon on each player's Bench. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Magnemite does 40 damage to itself. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "Uses anti-gravity to stay suspended. Appears without warning and uses attacks like Thunder Wave."

I keep a set binder for Legendary Collection, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Legendary Collection set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Magnemite can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
