Description
Number 85 in the Paldea Evolved expansion, this Basic Slowpoke card captures the essence of the 2023 Pokémon Trading Card Game era. Designed by artist sowsow, the card features a Psychic typing with 80 Hit Points, making it a functional addition to any deck. The artwork and layout adhere to the distinct visual identity of the SV2 set code, offering collectors a tangible piece of modern TCG history. For players, Slowpoke offers a unique strategic choice through its attacks. Psychic Tail-Fishing allows you to search your deck for any card, but requires a coin flip that could result in discarding a hand card if the result is tails. Alternatively, Zen Headbutt deals 30 damage for two Psychic energy. This risk-reward mechanic adds depth to the card's utility beyond its common rarity. As a common card, Slowpoke serves as a foundational element for set builders and casual players alike. Whether you are completing your collection or preparing for gameplay, this card represents a key component of the 2023 release.
