Collector Insights

Purugly is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 90 HP and a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It features two attacks: "High Hat" requires one Colorless energy to discard a randomly chosen card from the opponent's hand, and "Body Slam" demands four Colorless energy to deal 50 damage and potentially paralyze the defending Pokémon. The card has no resistances but is weak to Fighting-type attacks, which deal an additional 20 damage. Designed by artist Masakazu Fukuda, Purugly's flavor text describes it as a bold Pokémon that intrudes on others' nests to claim them as its own. The card belongs to the Diamond & Pearl series, released in May 2007, and is classified as a Rare card. Its simplicity in design and strategic discard effect make it a versatile option for gameplay. The card's focus on disruption and damage control aligns with its thematic role in competitive play.

It is a brazen brute that barges its way into another Pokémon's nest and claims it as its own.
