The card was released in the Sword & Shield series on February 7, 2020, and is classified as a Common rarity. Its regulation mark is D, and it is illustrated by artist Mina Nakai. Blipbug has a Fire weakness that deals double damage. The card’s flavor text highlights its role as a curious collector of information, emphasizing its intelligence over physical strength.

A constant collector of information, this Pokémon is very smart. Very strong is what it isn't.
