Collector Insights

Golbat is a Grass-type Pokémon with 60 HP. It features two attacks: Wing Attack, which costs three Colorless energy to deal 30 damage, and Leech Life, requiring two Grass and one Colorless energy to inflict 20 damage while removing damage counters from Golbat equal to the damage dealt. The card’s resistance to Fighting-type attacks reduces damage by 30, while its weakness to Psychic-type attacks doubles the damage taken. Golbat’s design incorporates a theme of relentless energy absorption, as suggested by its flavor text. The card was released in the Fossil set in October 1999 and is classified as an Uncommon rarity. Artist Kagemaru Himeno contributed the artwork, and the card’s theme color is a muted green (#959e64). It is numbered 34 in the set and corresponds to Pokémon Dex number 42.

Once it strikes, it will not stop draining energy from the victim even if it gets too heavy to fly.
