Collector Insights
Poliwrath is a Water-type Pokémon with 100 HP and a retreat cost of two Colorless Energy. It features a Poké-Power ability called Plunge, which allows the player to flip a coin during their turn if Poliwrath is on the Bench. If the result is heads, all Energy cards attached to the Active Pokémon are transferred to Poliwrath, followed by switching Poliwrath with the Active Pokémon. The card’s primary attack, Water Punch, requires four Energy costing two Water and two Colorless cards, dealing 40 damage plus 10 additional damage for each heads when flipping coins equal to the number of Water Energy attached. Poliwrath has no resistances but is weak to Lightning attacks, which deal double damage. The card is part of the E-Card series, released as part of the Expedition Base Set on September 15, 2002. It was illustrated by Yuka Morii and is numbered 24 in the set, carrying a Rare Holo rarity. The card’s theme color is a muted greenish-blue, matching its Water-type classification.
