Collector Insights

Steelix is a Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring two distinct attacks. The first attack, Earth Rift, requires two Colorless Energy and deals 10 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. This attack also triggers a coin flip, nullifying its use in your next turn if tails. The second attack, Iron Smash, demands four Energy (two Metal and two Colorless) and has variable damage based on coin flip outcomes. If both coins land heads, it deals 70 damage; if one is heads and one tails, it inflicts 50 damage. If both are tails, the attack does nothing. Steelix is part of the Wind from the Sea set, released on May 24, 2002, and is classified as a Rare Holo card with the number 73. The card was illustrated by artist Hajime Kusajima.
