The card has 70 HP and includes two distinct attacks. The first attack, Hydrocannon, requires two Water Energy to deal 30 damage plus 20 additional damage for each Water Energy attached to Dark Blastoise but not used to power the attack, with a maximum of 40 extra damage. The second attack, Rocket Tackle, uses one Water and two Colorless Energy to deal 40 damage while inflicting 10 damage to Dark Blastoise itself. Upon resolving, the card flips a coin, granting the player the ability to prevent all damage to Dark Blastoise during their opponent's next turn if the result is heads.
