    2nd attack, selfdestruct currently reads:
    “Does 20 damage to each player’s Bench. (Don’t apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Magneton does 80 damage to itself.”

    From the card image it should read:
    “Does 20 damage to each Pokémon on each player’s Bench. (Don’t apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Magneton does 80 damage to itself.”

    Thanks for maintaining this amazing database!

      Great eye—it took nearly fourteen years before anyone picked up on this. The text has been corrected. Thank you for pointing out the mistake!
