Collector Insights

Pelipper is a Water-type Pokémon from the Diamond & Pearl series, featured in the Great Encounters set released in February 2008. It has an HP of 80 and requires one Colorless Energy to retreat. The card’s flavor text describes Pelipper diving its large bill into the sea to scoop up prey along with water. Its primary attack, Guzzle, allows the player to choose up to two basic Water Energy cards from their hand and attach them to Pelipper, removing two damage counters for each card attached. The secondary attack, Jet Return, costs one Water and two Colorless Energy, dealing 30 times the number of Energy cards attached to Pelipper and then placing all attached Energy cards on top of the player’s deck before shuffling. Pelipper resists Fighting-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Lightning-type attacks by 20. The card is classified as Uncommon rarity and was designed by artist Ken Sugimori.

It dips its large bill in the sea, then scoops up numerous prey along with water.
