The card resists Metal-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks with double damage. Its flavor text describes it as a creature inhabiting deep, sunless waters, using bioluminescent antennae to signal others of its kind. Chinchou appears in the Sun & Moon series, specifically the Lost Thunder set, released on November 2, 2018. The card is numbered 73 and has a Common rarity.
