Collector Insights
Blastoise is a Water-type Pokémon with 100 HP. It features the Poké-Power "Jet Stream," which allows the player to discard an Energy card attached to Blastoise during their turn if the Pokémon is active. This ability also lets the player discard an Energy card from the Defending Pokémon under specific conditions. The card's attack, "Energy Cannon," costs two Colorless and one Water Energy, dealing 40 damage plus 10 additional damage for each unused Energy card attached to Blastoise. The attack’s damage cap is 60 due to the maximum 20 extra damage allowed. Blastoise has a retreat cost of two Colorless Energy cards. It is weak to Lightning-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card is part of the Expedition Base Set, released in 2002, and is numbered 4 with a Rare Holo rarity.
