Collector Insights
Chimchar is a Fire-type Pokémon with 40 HP, featuring a single Colorless retreat cost and no resistances. It is weak to Water-type attacks, taking 10 additional damage. The card includes two attacks: "Serial Swipes," which costs one Fire energy and deals 10 damage multiplied by the number of heads from flipping four coins, and "Sleepy," requiring Fire and two Colorless energies to deal 40 damage plus 20 more if Piplup is in play, inducing sleep on the defending Pokémon. The flavor text highlights its fiery rear end, fueled by internal gas, and its resilience to rain. Designed by artist Midori Harada, Chimchar is part of the POP Series 9 set, released in March 2009. It carries a Common rarity and is numbered 13 in the series. The card’sdex number 390 references its Pokémon evolution lineage.
Its fiery rear end is fueled by gas made in its belly. Even rain can't extinguish the fire.
