#42 Sandslash - Supreme Victors (pl3)
Sandslash is a Fighting-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. Its primary attack, Needle, requires one Fighting and two Colorless energies to deal 40 damage and has a 50% chance to paralyze and poison the defending Pokémon. The card includes a Poké-Power ability called Dig Down, allowing the player to inspect the top five deck cards during their turn, select any number of Fighting Energy cards, reveal them to the opponent, and add them to their hand while shuffling the remaining cards. This ability is restricted if Sandslash has a Special Condition. Sandslash resists Lightning-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Water-type attacks by 20. The card’s flavor text describes its behavior of curling up and rolling into opponents with sharp spines to inflict damage. It was released in the Supreme Victors set as card number 42, classified as a Rare card. The artwork is attributed to artist Kagemaru Himeno.
