#25 Basculin - Emerging Powers (bw2)
Basculin is a Water-type Pokémon with 80 HP. It has a retreat cost of 1 Colorless energy and no resistances, making it vulnerable to Lightning attacks that deal double damage. The card features two attacks: Tackle, which costs 1 Colorless energy and deals 10 damage, and Splatter, requiring 1 Water and 1 Colorless energy to deal 30 damage to an opposing Pokémon. Splatter also bypasses Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon. Basculin's distinct coloration reflects its rivalry, though occasional cross-school interactions are noted in its flavor text. The card was released in the Black & White series' Emerging Powers set on August 31, 2011, and is classified as Uncommon rarity. Artist Akira Komayama designed the card, and it is numbered 25 in the series. The card's design aligns with its theme of aquatic Pokémon dynamics.
