Collector Insights

Sandile is a Darkness-type Pokémon with 70 HP. It has a retreat cost of two Colorless energy and a converted retreat cost of 2. The card features two attacks: "Gnaw," which costs two Colorless energy to deal 20 damage, and "Crunch," requiring two Darkness and one Colorless energy to strike for 30 damage. The Crunch attack includes a secondary effect where a coin flip may result in the opponent discarding an Energy from their Active Pokémon. Sandile resists Psychic-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks with double damage. It was released in the Sun & Moon series on February 3, 2017, and is part of the Sun & Moon set. The card is marked as Common in rarity and was illustrated by Atsuko Nishida. Its flavor text describes a behavior where it submerges in sand to avoid detection and regulate its temperature.

It submerges itself in sand and moves as if swimming. This wise behavior keeps its enemies from finding it and maintains its temperature.
