The character
Claydol is a Ground/Psychic-type Pokémon that evolves from Baltoy. According to its lore, it began life as an ancient clay figurine crafted over 20,000 years ago before mysteriously coming to life. It is known for its floating, levitating body and its connection to ancient ruins and mysticism within the Pokémon world.
This card
This is Claydol from the Chaos Rising set, numbered 092/086, printed as a holo card with a rarity marked S (AR). The artwork by matazo depicts Claydol floating against a starry night sky above an ocean, with a rainbow arcing through clouds below it. The card carries a secret-rarity style star symbol near its collector number, indicating its place beyond the set's main numbered run.
How it plays
Claydol is a Stage 1 Pokémon with 120 HP, evolving from Baltoy. Its attack, Devolution Ray, costs a single Fighting energy and deals 50 damage; if the opponent's Active Pokémon is an evolved Pokémon, it devolves that Pokémon by returning its highest Stage Evolution card to the opponent's hand. It has a weakness to Grass-type attacks at double damage, no listed resistance, and a retreat cost of two energy.
