Collector Insights

Grapploct is a Pokémon card featuring a Fighting-type with an HP of 130. It was released as part of the Shiny Star V set on November 20, 2020, and is classified as a Shiny rarity card. The card includes two attacks: Octolock, which requires two Fighting energy and imposes a restriction on the Defending Pokémon’s attacks, and Tough Swing, which costs three energy including Colorless and deals 130 damage. Octolock’s effect prevents the Defending Pokémon from retreating and increases the cost of its attacks by Colorless energy, though this effect is limited to a single application. Tough Swing’s damage bypasses Resistance, making it a direct threat. The card’s artwork is attributed to artist Masakazu Fukuda, and its design aligns with the set’s thematic focus on star-related Pokémon. This card’s strategic versatility is highlighted through its dual attack options and conditional effects.
