It features two attacks: Powder Snow, which costs a Water energy and forces the defending Pokémon to sleep, and Ice Ball, requiring Water and Colorless energy to deal 20 damage. The card’s retreat cost is two Colorless energies. Artist Tomokazu Komiya designed the artwork, and the flavor text describes Spheal rolling across ice floes to reach shore due to its body shape being poorly suited for swimming.
