What does the Vegapunk EB02-056 card do?
EB02-056 Vegapunk is a [Blocker] Character that looks five cards deep for a cheap Scientist when it enters play. The official card list prints the following.
| Field | EB02-056 Vegapunk |
|---|---|
| Rarity / type | SR / Character |
| Cost | 5 |
| Power | None printed (shown as a dash) |
| Counter | 1000 |
| Color / Attribute | Yellow / Wisdom |
| Type | Scientist/Egghead |
| Effect | [Blocker] [On Play] Look at 5 cards from the top of your deck; play up to 1 {Scientist} type Character card with a cost of 5 or less other than [Vegapunk]. Then, place the rest at the bottom of your deck in any order and if your opponent has 2 or less Characters, trash 1 card from your hand. |
| Trigger | [Trigger] Draw 1 card. |
How do you read the Vegapunk EB02 effect?
Read it in order: the [Blocker] keyword, then the [On Play] search, then the hand trash that depends on your opponent’s board.
- [Blocker] is the keyword printed at the start of the effect. The card has no printed power, and its Counter is 1000.
- [On Play] looks at the top 5 cards of your deck. You may play up to one {Scientist} Character with cost 5 or less. The card cannot be another Vegapunk by name.
- Bottom of the deck: the cards you did not play go to the bottom in any order.
- Hand trash: if your opponent has 2 or fewer Characters, you trash 1 card from your hand. If they have 3 or more, this part does nothing.
- [Trigger] is printed as “Draw 1 card.”
The Scientist condition ties the card to the Scientist/Egghead type line, which is the same type line printed on this card itself.
Which versions of Vegapunk exist in EB-02?
Two prints share EB02-056: the standard SR and a parallel art version with identical text. The official list also shows one Leader from another set.
| Card number | Rarity | Type | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| EB02-056 | SR | Character | Standard print |
| EB02-056 (parallel art) | SR | Character | Same name, stats and effect as the standard print |
| OP07-097 (parallel art) | L | Leader | Shown in the EB-02 series list; Life 2, Power 5000, Yellow |
The English card list for EB-02 shows the same two Vegapunk numbers and links an errata note on the page. The Japanese card list names the card ベガパンク.
Is the OP07-097 Vegapunk Leader part of EB-02?
No. OP07-097 is an OP-07 Leader, even though the EB-02 series list also displays it as a parallel art version.
Its text reads: this Leader cannot attack. [Activate: Main] [Once Per Turn] ① (you may rest the specified number of DON!! cards in your cost area): select up to 1 {Egghead} type card with a cost of 5 or less from your hand and play it, or add it to the top of your Life cards face-up. It has Life 2, Power 5000, Color Yellow, Attribute Wisdom and the Scientist/Egghead type. When you search for Vegapunk EB02, check the card number first: EB02-056 is the Character, OP07-097 is the Leader.
Where does Vegapunk EB02 sit in the set?
EB02-056 is one of the 9 Super Rares in a set of 87 card types. The official product page lists the rarities as Leader 1, Common 29, Rare 21, Super Rare 9, Secret Rare 1 and Special Cards 26.
The new Leader of the set is Monkey D. Luffy, and every card carries new illustrations by artists from the TV anime. For that Leader and the Secret Rare, see our EB-02 Luffy cards guide.
How do you check a Vegapunk EB02 listing?
Match the card number, rarity and effect text to the official list before anything else. Use this checklist.
- The number must read EB02-056 and the rarity SR. A Vegapunk with OP07-097 is the Leader.
- Cost 5, Counter 1000, Yellow and Scientist/Egghead should match the table above.
- Decide whether you want the standard or the parallel art print. Both share the same text, so only the art differs.
- Confirm the edition is Japanese. The set is also sold in an English edition with a different release date.
- For sealed boxes, remember that packs are randomly packed; the Japanese page states cards are randomly packed, so no listing can promise a specific Vegapunk.
For the full set’s rarity layout, see EB02 Secret Rare and Special Cards, and for choosing between boxes and singles, EB-02 Recommendations.
