The short version
Ampharos is a Stage 2 Lightning-type Pokémon with 140 HP, weak to Fighting and a retreat cost of 1. It is card 084 of 331 in Mega Rising, printed at Rare, and it turns up in the Mega Altaria pack. It evolves from Flaaffy. 120 cards in the expansion are rarer than this one. Opening for it means about 400 packs to be reasonably sure of one, which at 2 free packs a day is 7 months. The art is by Megumi Mizutani, who has 15 other cards in the game.
When it gets dark, the light from its bright, shiny tail can be seen from far away on the ocean’s surface.
