#56 Tentacool - Fossil (base3)
Tentacool is a Water-type Pokémon with 30 HP, featuring a single attack named Acid that costs 1 Water energy to deal 10 damage. Its ability, Cowardice, allows the player to return Tentacool to their hand during their turn, discarding all attached cards, though this cannot be used immediately after play or if Tentacool is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. The card is part of the Base series, released in the Fossil set on October 10, 1999, and is classified as a Common rarity. Tentacool’s flavor text describes it as drifting in shallow seas, with anglers often facing punishment from its stinging acid. The card is illustrated by artist Kagemaru Himeno and has a theme color of #879a81. It has no resistances but is weak to Lightning, taking double damage from such attacks. The card’s design emphasizes its aquatic nature and defensive capabilities through its unique ability.
