#30 Horsea - Primal Clash (xy5)
Horsea is a Water-type Pokémon with 60 HP, featured in the XY series’ Primal Clash set, released on February 4, 2015. The card’s artist is kirisAki, and its flavor text describes a creature that nests among corals, using murky ink to escape danger when sensing threats. It requires one Colorless energy to retreat and has no resistances, making it vulnerable to Grass-type attacks with double damage. The card’s sole attack, Bubble, costs one Water energy and involves flipping a coin to potentially paralyze the opponent’s Active Pokémon. Horsea’s simplicity in gameplay reflects its design as a Common rarity card, balancing straightforward mechanics with strategic potential. The set’s emphasis on primal themes aligns with its ecological description, highlighting its natural habitat and defensive behaviors. This card’s minimalistic approach underscores its role as a foundational Pokémon in competitive play.
