The Poliwag card captures a moment of this small, round Pokémon as it prepares to swim, its large, curious eyes gazing out with a hint of innocence. The gentle curves of its body and the playful swirl on its belly evoke a sense of whimsy, suggesting a carefree life in the water. Its tail flicks just above the surface, hinting at its readiness to dive into the aquatic world around it. This snapshot feels like a serene glimpse into the life of a young tadpole, full of potential and discovery.
Does 10 damage plus 10 more damage for each Water Energy attached to Poliwag but not used to pay for this attack's Energy cost. Extra Water Energy after the 2nd don't count.
