Collector Insights

Drapion is a Darkness-type Pokémon from the Sword & Shield series, released in February 2020 as part of the Sword & Shield set. It has an HP of 140 and requires three Colorless Energy to retreat. The card features a rare printing, marked with regulation code D, and was designed by artist Masakazu Fukuda. Drapion possesses two attacks: Hard Press, which costs Darkness, Colorless, and Colorless Energy to deal 80 damage and potentially Paralyze the opponent's Active Pokémon, and Toxic Strike, which uses two Darkness and two Colorless Energy to deal 130 damage and Poison the opponent's Active Pokémon. Its weakness is to Fighting-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card's flavor text describes Drapion as a vicious Pokémon nicknamed the Sand Demon, though it avoids conflict with Hippowdon. It carries dex number 452, aligning with its Pokémon species.

It's so vicious that it's called the Sand Demon. Yet when confronted by Hippowdon, Drapion keeps a low profile and will never pick a fight.
