Collector Insights

Dark Wartortle is a Water-type Pokémon with 60 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It has no resistances but is weak to Lightning, taking double damage from such attacks. The card includes two attacks: Doubleslap, which costs one Water energy and deals 10 damage multiplied by the number of heads from two flipped coins, and Mirror Shell, requiring Water and Colorless energy to activate. Mirror Shell allows Dark Wartortle to retaliate by dealing equal damage to the defending Pokémon if an attack hits during the opponent’s next turn, even if the Pokémon is knocked out. The card’s flavor text describes it as a Pokémon with a negative attitude that hides in its shell during bad moods. It was released in the "Legendary Collection" set on May 24, 2002, and is classified as Uncommon rarity. The artwork was created by artist Kagemaru Himeno, with a theme color of #82aa8b. This card’s design and mechanics reflect its role in the game’s strategic depth.
