Collector Insights
Octillery is a Water-type Pokémon with an HP of 80, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It boasts two attacks: Switch Cannon, which costs one Water energy and deals 30 damage to an opponent’s Pokémon, then allows the user to switch with a Benched Pokémon, and Ink Bomb, requiring Water and two Colorless energy to deal 50 damage while disrupting the opponent’s next turn by forcing a coin flip to negate an attack. The card carries a rarity of Rare Holo and is part of the HeartGold & SoulSilver series, released in 2010 as part of the HS—Unleashed set. Its design by Ken Sugimori reflects its role as a versatile defensive and offensive threat. The Pokémon’s flavor text describes it as trapping foes with suction cups before delivering a powerful headbutt. It has a weakness to Lightning-type attacks, multiplying damage by two, and no resistances. This card balances immediate damage with strategic switching and disruption mechanics.
It traps foes with the suction cups on its tentacles, then smashes them with its rock-hard head.
