Collector Insights
Thwackey is a Grass-type Pokémon with 90 HP. It features the ability "Lay of the Land," which eliminates its Retreat Cost if a Stadium is in play. The card includes a single attack named "Branch Poké," requiring one Grass Energy to deal 20 damage. Thwackey’s retreat cost consists of two Colorless Energy. It has no resistances and is weak to Fire, taking double damage from such attacks. The card’s flavor text highlights Thwackey’s rhythmic drumming with its sticks as a source of peer respect. It was released in the Sword & Shield series as part of the Shining Fates Shiny Vault set on February 19, 2021. The card is classified as a Rare Shiny and bears the regulation mark D.
The faster a Thwackey can beat out a rhythm with its two sticks, the more respect it wins from its peers.
