Avalugg

Description

Designed by Tomoki Sone, this uncommon card captures the creature's formidable nature with 160 HP and a distinctive gameplay strategy. The card's primary attack, Water Iceberg Breaker, requires the player to discard the top six cards of their deck, dealing 60 damage for each Basic Water Energy card removed in the process. This mechanic adds a layer of risk and reward, distinguishing it from standard offensive plays. The secondary attack, Frost Stamp, deals a flat 160 damage for a single Water and Colorless energy investment, offering a reliable finisher when resources allow. With a high retreat cost of four energy, Avalugg is best positioned in the Active spot to deliver significant damage rather than maneuver frequently. The Regulation Mark J confirms its inclusion in the current legal framework for organized play. Collectors appreciate this card for its strategic depth and the clean, functional design typical of the Chaos Rising set. Whether building a deck around energy manipulation or simply seeking to complete the Chaos Rising checklist, this Avalugg represents a solid addition to any Pokémon Trading Card Game collection.
