Wobbuffet

Description

This Reverse Holo finish highlights the creature's defensive nature, aligning with its Pokédex entry noting its aversion to light and shock. Designed by nagimiso, the card captures the essence of a Pokémon that inflates its body to build up a counterstrike when threatened. From a gameplay perspective, Wobbuffet boasts 120 HP, providing a sturdy presence for players building their decks. Its primary mechanic, Shadowy Knot, deals 50 damage multiplied by the number of Colorless Energy required for the opponent’s Active Pokémon to retreat. This unique interaction rewards strategic foresight, as players must calculate retreat costs carefully to mitigate potential damage. With a retreat cost of three Colorless Energy, Wobbuffet is slow to reposition, making its defensive capabilities crucial for sustaining turns. This card number has become a staple for those completing the base set or seeking out Uncommon variants. The combination of its Psychic typing and the intriguing Shadowy Knot attack makes it a memorable addition to any Pokémon Trading Card Game collection. Whether you are focused on completing the Burning Shadows checklist or building a themed deck around Psychic-types, Wobbuffet offers both thematic and mechanical interest.
