Collector Insights
Shaymin is a Grass-type Pokémon with 80 HP. It features two attacks: "Growth," which allows attaching a Grass Energy card from the player’s hand to Shaymin, and "Air Slash," requiring two Colorless Energy to deal 40 damage while flipping a coin to potentially discard an Energy attached to Shaymin. The Pokémon has a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, and is weak to Fire-type attacks, which increase damage by 20. Shaymin’s retreat cost is one Colorless Energy, and it was illustrated by Atsuko Nishida. The card belongs to the Platinum series, released in February 2009, and is part of the Platinum set. Its flavor text describes a scenario where the flowers on its body bloom in response to affection and gratitude. Shaymin is classified as a Rare Holo card, emphasizing its collectible value.
The flowers all over its body burst into bloom if it is lovingly hugged and senses gratitude.
