Collector Insights

Chesnaught is a Grass-type Pokémon with 160 HP, featured in the XY series as part of the XY Black Star Promos set released on October 12, 2013. It has a retreat cost of four Colorless energy and is illustrated by artist Mitsuhiro Arita. The card includes two attacks: Spike Lariat, which costs Grass and two Colorless energy to deal 60+ damage, and Adamantine Press, requiring Grass, Grass, and two Colorless energy to strike for 100 damage. Spike Lariat boosts damage by 60 if the opponent’s Active Pokémon already has damage counters. Adamantine Press provides defensive resilience by reducing damage taken by 20 during the opponent’s next turn. Chesnaught’s weakness is Fire-type attacks multiplied by two, making it vulnerable to such threats. Its flavor text describes a defensive stance capable of withstanding extreme force, reflecting its robust design.

When it takes a defensive posture with its fists guarding its face, it could withstand a bomb blast.
