How does paralysis work in the Pokemon Card Game?
In the Pokemon TCG, when a Pokemon is paralyzed, it can't attack or retreat on the player's next turn. To show it's paralyzed, you turn the card 90 degrees to the right. It's like the Pokemon is taking a forced nap, missing its chance to strike back or escape!

Paralysis? Overrated. Just a turn off and you're back. Deal with it.
Paralysis in the Pokemon card game? It's simple: Flip that card sideways and it's lights out for a turn. No attacking, no retreating. Just hope your opponent doesn't have a knockout punch lined up!
Actually, paralysis isn't that bad. You just can't attack or retreat for one turn, which can be a bummer. But remember, it only lasts until the end of your next turn, then your Pokemon is back in action. It's all about strategy!
