#79 Claydol - Celestial Storm (sm7)

Claydol is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 110 HP, featured in the Sun & Moon series under the Celestial Storm set, released on August 3, 2018. It has a retreat cost of two Colorless energy and no resistances, making it vulnerable to Grass-type attacks with a ×2 weakness. The card’s attacks include Psy Bolt, which costs one Colorless energy to deal 20 damage and has a 50% chance to paralyze the opponent’s Active Pokémon, and Miraculous Spin, requiring two Colorless and one Fighting energy to deal 40 damage multiplied by the number of Steven’s Resolve cards in the player’s discard pile. Claydol’s design is attributed to artist Yumi, and its flavor text references a legend about its origin from ancient clay dolls crafted by a long-lost civilization. The card is classified as Rare and carries the number 79 in its set. Its simplicity in energy costs and strategic attack options make it a versatile addition to decks focused on disruption or resource management. The absence of abilities and the emphasis on tactical discard interactions define its gameplay role within the Pokémon TCG.
