Description

Collectors often seek this card to complete the Legendary Collection base set or to utilize its specific gameplay mechanics in vintage-style formats. The Psychic type and Fickle Attack provide a classic look at early Pokémon TCG design philosophy. Whether you are building a competitive deck or expanding your collection of rare Pokémon cards, this product represents a key component of the franchise's history. The Legendary Collection remains a cornerstone for those interested in the evolution of the trading card game.

Ability: Reel In
When you play Dark Slowbro from your hand, choose up to 3 Basic Pokémon and/or Evolution cards from your discard pile and put them into your hand.
