Collector Insights
Zangoose is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It appears in the Diamond & Pearl series, specifically the Great Encounters set, released on February 1, 2008. The card is numbered 59 and marked as Uncommon rarity. Its artwork is by Masakazu Fukuda, and it carries no resistances but has a Fighting weakness that deals an additional 20 damage. Zangoose has two attacks: "Slash," which costs one Colorless energy to deal 20 damage, and "Cutting Claw," requiring three Colorless energies to strike for 40 damage plus 50 more if the opponent controls Seviper. The flavor text highlights its historical conflict with Seviper and emphasizes its sharp claws as primary weapons. This card’s design reflects its role as a combatant in the Pokémon TCG, balancing simplicity in energy costs with conditional damage bonuses.
It has feuded with SEVIPER for many generations. Its sharp claws are its biggest weapons.
