Character info
The character
Slowpoke, the Dopey Pokemon, is known throughout the Pokemon series for its slow reactions and vacant expression. It is often seen lazing near water, so dim-witted that it will not notice if something bites its tail for a whole day. Despite its dull demeanor, it can evolve into the more formidable Slowbro or Slowking.
This card
This is Slowpoke from the 30th Celebration set, numbered 016/128 with common rarity, printed in a holo treatment and bearing the Pikachu 30th Anniversary stamp. The artwork by Uninori depicts the Pokemon climbing out of a stone well in a grassy clearing, with a second Slowpoke visible in the background. The card text includes its Pokedex entry describing its tendency to laze near water.
How it plays
This Basic Pokemon has 80 HP and a Water type, with weakness to Lightning (x2) and a retreat cost of two. Its first attack, Well-Hidden, costs one colorless energy and has the player flip a coin; on heads, all damage and effects from attacks are prevented during the opponent's next turn.
