“The card shows Walrein surfacing from a frozen ocean, its rounded form breaking through the icy surface. The atmosphere is tranquil, with soft shades of blue and white blending together, evoking a sense of calm in this frigid environment. Walrein seems at ease, embodying the spirit of its icy domain as it navigates the chilly waters. This moment captures the essence of a creature perfectly adapted to its surroundings.”
