Character info
The character
Snorlax is a Normal-type Pokemon known as the Sleeping Pokemon, famous for its enormous appetite and tendency to block paths while it naps. In the Pokemon games and anime it is prized as a powerful, durable partner despite its laziness. This particular Snorlax belongs to Hop, a recurring character and rival from the Galar region introduced in Pokemon Sword and Shield, who is known for his enthusiasm and close bond with his Pokemon team.
This card

It is a holo rarity card depicting Hop's Snorlax asleep in a colorful urban setting with Hop's portrait shown in the corner.
