Collector Insights

Snorlax is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring a retreat cost of four Colorless energy. Its ability, Guard, prevents the Defending Pokémon from retreating while Snorlax is active, though this effect stops if Snorlax is under a Special Condition. The card’s primary attack, Roll Over, costs four Colorless energy to deal 30 damage and puts the Defending Pokémon to sleep with a 50% chance. Snorlax resists Psychic-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Fighting-type moves with double damage. The flavor text describes it as a creature that prioritizes eating and sleeping, growing increasingly slothful as its size increases. Designed by artist Craig Turvey, this Promo card belongs to the Base series and was released in the Wizards Black Star Promos set in July 1999. Its theme color, a warm gold, aligns with its association with comfort and inactivity.

Very lazy. Just eats and sleeps. As its rotund bulk builds, it becomes steadily more slothful.
