From the 1999 Fossil expansion of the Pokémon TCG, this Cloyster card is a Stage 1 Water-type evolution of Shellder. The artwork by Kagemaru Himeno depicts Cloyster bursting from its spiky purple shell against a swirling yellow-and-orange background. It features the “Clamp” attack (which can Paralyze the opponent) and the “Spike Cannon” attack (up to 60 damage with two heads), making it playable in older TCG formats. As Cloyster’s first English TCG printing, this vintage trading card carries nostalgic significance and appeals to collectors aiming to complete a classic Fossil-era Pokémon collection.
