Wooloo

Description

As card number 152 in the Sword & Shield base set (coded SSH), this Common rarity card is identified by its Reverse Holo treatment, which provides a shimmering, reflective finish that catches the light differently than standard prints. This visual distinction makes it a favorite for builders focusing on set completion with varied aesthetics. Designed by Mitsuhiro Arita, the card captures the essence of Wooloo, a fluffy, sheep-like Pokémon known for its thick fleece. The artwork presents the character in a style consistent with the Sword & Shield era, emphasizing its cute and approachable nature. In gameplay, Wooloo is classified as a Basic Pokémon with 70 HP and a Colorless energy type, making it a versatile option for decks that require flexible energy attachment. Its Retreat Cost is just 1, allowing for quick movement on the battlefield. Wooloo’s attack, Tackle, requires two Colorless energy and deals 30 damage. Uniquely, its ability triggers a defensive effect: during the opponent’s next turn, Wooloo takes 10 less damage from attacks. This defensive utility adds strategic depth, allowing players to protect this Pokémon from follow-up strikes. The card also features the Regulation Mark D, indicating its legal status in specific formats during its print run. For collectors, the combination of a beloved Pokémon, the iconic Reverse Holo foil pattern, and the nostalgia of the Sword & Shield era makes this card a staple in any comprehensive collection. Whether you are hunting for specific finishes or simply enjoying the artistry of Mitsuhiro Arita, this card represents a key piece of the Galar region’s legacy in the TCG.
