#11 Accelgor - Dark Explorers (bw5)

Accelgor is a Grass-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring a unique combination of attacks and abilities. Its primary attack, Hammer In, requires one Grass Energy to deal 20 damage. The secondary attack, Deck and Cover, uses two Colorless Energy to deal 50 damage while applying Paralysis and Poison to the defending Pokémon, then shuffling itself and attached cards into the attacker’s deck. The card’s flavor text describes Accelgor’s behavior of wrapping itself in membranes to avoid dehydration. It belongs to the Black & White series, released as part of the Dark Explorers set in 2012, and is classified as a Rare card. The artwork is credited to artist Kouki Saitou, and it has no resistances or retreat costs. Its primary weakness is to Fire, which deals double damage. This card’s design emphasizes its defensive and strategic gameplay mechanics through its special abilities.
