Collector Insights

Whirlipede is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featured in the Black & White series under the Emerging Powers set. It has a retreat cost of three Colorless energy and is classified as Uncommon rarity. The card’s flavor text describes a Pokémon that remains motionless until attacked, at which point it spins rapidly and strikes its opponent. Whirlipede possesses two attacks: Venoshock, which deals 10+ damage and adds 60 if the defending Pokémon is poisoned, and Steamroller, a three Colorless energy attack that deals 40 damage without being influenced by Resistance. Its weakness to Psychic-type attacks is doubled, making it vulnerable to such threats. The card was released on August 31, 2011, and is illustrated by artist Shin Nagasawa. It does not include any abilities or resistances, relying solely on its attacks and type advantages.

It is usually motionless, but when attacked, it rotates at high speed and then crashes into its opponent.
