Claydol

Description

The Pokémon Celebrations 2021 Classic Collection card featuring Claydol, numbered 015/106, serves as a vibrant tribute to the franchise's 25th anniversary. Designed by Midori Harada, this holo foil release captures the essence of early Pokémon trading card game history while introducing the evolved form of Baltoy. As a Stage 1 Fighting-type Pokémon with 80 HP, Claydol represents a strategic option for collectors and players alike. Claydol’s gameplay revolves around its unique ability, Cosmic Power, which allows players to rearrange up to two cards from their hand to the bottom of the deck in any order. If this ability is used, the player draws cards until they have six in hand, offering significant hand management flexibility. This ability cannot be used if Claydol is affected by a Special Condition, adding a layer of strategic consideration to its deployment. In addition to its ability, Claydol features the Spinning Attack, dealing 40 damage for a cost of Fighting and Colorless energy. The card’s design reflects the nostalgic aesthetic of the Celebrations set, appealing to long-time fans who appreciate the connection to the Pokémon’s origins. The holo finish adds a collectible dimension, making it a standout piece for those building themed collections or seeking specific entries in the Classic Collection subset. Whether you are a seasoned collector or new to the Pokémon Trading Card Game, this card offers both nostalgic value and gameplay utility. The Celebrations set stands as a celebration of Pokémon’s legacy, and this Claydol card is a key component for those looking to complete their collection or add a piece of history to their binder.
