Collector Insights

Cloyster is a Water-type Pokémon with 120 HP, featured in the Sun & Moon series released in 2017. Its design is attributed to artist Yoshinobu Saito, and it carries a retreat cost of three Colorless energy. The card includes two attacks: Headlock, which costs Water and Colorless energy and deals 30+ damage, and Guard Press, requiring Water, Water, and Colorless energy to deal 80 damage. Headlock’s effect involves flipping a coin, potentially increasing damage or paralyzing the opponent’s Active Pokémon. Guard Press provides a defensive benefit by reducing damage taken during the opponent’s next turn. Cloyster is weak to Grass-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card’s flavor text hints at its unbreakable shell and mysterious contents, emphasizing its enigmatic nature.

Its hard shell cannot be shattered—not even by a bomb. The contents of the shell remain unknown.
