Collector Insights

Swellow is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a retreat cost of zero. It has two attacks: "Clutch," which costs one Colorless energy to deal 10 damage and prevents the defending Pokémon from retreating until the end of the opponent's next turn, and "Quick Dive," requiring two Colorless energies to flip a coin, dealing 50 damage to a chosen opponent's Pokémon regardless of Weakness or Resistance. The card resists Fighting-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Lightning-type attacks multiplied by two. It belongs to the EX series, released in 2003 as part of the Dragon set, and is classified as Uncommon rarity. Artist Mitsuhiro Arita designed the card, which includes no additional abilities beyond its listed attacks. The Pokémon's dex number is 277, and it has no retreat cost, making it a straightforward defensive and offensive option in gameplay.
