Pelipper is a Water-type Pokémon from the Platinum series, featured in the Arceus set released on November 4, 2009. It has 90 HP and requires two Colorless Energy to retreat. The card’s resistances include a -20 penalty to Fighting-type attacks, while its weaknesses make it vulnerable to Lightning-type moves with a +20 bonus. Pelipper possesses two attacks: Water Pulse, which costs one Water and one Colorless Energy to deal 30 damage and puts the defending Pokémon to sleep, and Continuous Crush, a more powerful move requiring two Water and two Colorless Energy to deal 70 damage and force the defender to discard Energy cards for each heads result from a coin flip. The card’s flavor text describes it as a sky messenger that safely transports small Pokémon and eggs. Artist Miki Tanaka designed the illustration, and the card is numbered 24 with a rarity of Rare. Its balanced energy costs and varied effects make it a versatile option in gameplay scenarios.
