The Kabutops card depicts this ancient Pokémon in a poised stance, its sharp claws catching the soft light around it. It embodies a moment of stillness, suggesting both alertness and readiness as it navigates its aquatic environment. The streamlined form of Kabutops hints at its agility, while the predatory nature of its pose adds a layer of tension to the scene. This snapshot captures the essence of survival in its world, highlighting the balance between grace and danger.
Remove a number of damage counters from Kabutops equal to half the damage done to the Defending Pokémon (after applying Weakness and Resistance) (rounded up to the nearest 10). If Kabutops has fewer damage counters than that, remove all of them.
