What this card does

Pawmot ex has 300 HP and requires Lightning Energy to use its attacks.

Zap Kick deals 60 damage for one Lightning Energy.

Levin Strike deals 220 damage but forces you to discard two Lightning Energy from Pawmot.

Signature attack

Zap Kick

No game text. (60 damage)

The key feature is Levin Strike which lets your child deal huge damage by sacrificing energy resources. This means they must manage their energy carefully because discarding them leaves Pawmot vulnerable to running out of power for future turns.
