Tapu Bulu is a Grass-type Pokémon with 130 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It appears in the Sun & Moon series, specifically the Lost Thunder set, released on November 2, 2018. The card’s artist is Satoshi Shirai, and it carries a Rare Holo rarity. Tapu Bulu has two attacks: Heavy Punch, which costs one Grass and one Colorless energy to deal 20 damage multiplied by the number of the opponent’s Benched Pokémon, and Wild Tackle, requiring two Grass and one Colorless energy to strike for 120 damage while risking 30 damage to itself on a coin flip. The Pokémon has no resistances but is weak to Fire, taking double damage from such attacks. Its flavor text describes it as the guardian deity of Ula’ula, using plants to immobilize enemies before delivering a powerful horn strike. The card’s design reflects its thematic connection to nature and combat.

The guardian deity of Ula'ula is a lazy Pokémon. It commands plants to immobilize its foes and then deals them a savage blow with its horns.
