Collector Insights
Shieldon is a Metal-type Pokémon with 80 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It has two attacks: Hard Face, which costs one Metal and one Colorless energy to deal 20 damage and grants a defensive boost by reducing damage taken during the opponent's next turn, and Shield Attack, requiring two Colorless energy in addition to Metal to deal 40 damage plus an additional 20 if a coin flip lands heads. The card includes a resistance to Psychic-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, and a weakness to Fire-type attacks, increasing damage by 20. Shieldon's design reflects its historical connection to ancient jungles, as noted in its flavor text. It was released as part of the Diamond & Pearl series in the DP Black Star Promos set on May 1, 2007, with a promo rarity and card number 8. The artwork is credited to artist Kouki Saitou, and the card adheres to standard Pokémon rules without additional special effects. Its balanced energy costs and strategic defensive options make it a versatile choice for gameplay.
