#23 Shellder - BREAKpoint (xy9)

Shellder is a Water-type Pokémon with 60 HP. It features a single attack named Clamp, which costs one Water and one Colorless Energy to use. The attack deals 30 damage and includes a flip coin effect: if heads, the opponent's Active Pokémon becomes Paralyzed, while tails results in the attack having no effect. Shellder's retreat cost requires one Colorless Energy, making it relatively easy to retreat. The card's flavor text suggests this move is employed only as a last resort, highlighting its strategic use in battle. It belongs to the BREAKpoint set, released as part of the XY series in 2016. The artist for this card is Kouki Saitou, and it carries a Common rarity. Shellder's weaknesses include Grass-type attacks, which deal double damage.
