Collector Insights

Cloyster is a Water-type Pokémon from the Base series, released in the Fossil set on October 10, 1999. It has 50 HP and requires two Colorless energy to retreat. The card features two attacks: Clamp, which costs two Water energy and deals 30 damage, flipping a coin to potentially paralyze the defending Pokémon or negate the attack, and Spike Cannon, which also costs two Water energy but deals 30 damage multiplied by the number of heads from two coins flipped. The flavor text describes Cloyster as launching its horns in quick volleys, with its innards remaining unseen. It has no resistances but is weak to Lightning, taking double damage from that type. The card is numbered 32 and marked as Uncommon rarity. Artist Kagemaru Himeno designed the illustration, and the card’s theme color is a muted greenish-brown.

When attacked, it launches its horns in quick volleys. Its innards have never been seen.
