What Is On This Card?

Evolves from: Wartortle

Poké-Power

Jet Stream

Once during your turn (before your attack), if Blastoise is your Active Pokémon, you may flip a coin. If heads, discard an Energy card attached to Blastoise, if any. Then, if there are any Energy cards attached to the Defending Pokémon, choose 1 of them and discard it. This power can't be used if Blastoise is affected by a Special Condition.

Attack · 40+ damage

Energy Cannon

Water + Water + Colorless energy. Does 40 damage plus 10 more damage for each Energy attached to Blastoise but not used to pay for this attack's Energy Cost. You can't add more than 20 damage in this way.

How To Research This Printing

Start with the image, Expedition Base Set set name, and 37 / 165 collector number. Those identifiers matter more than the character name alone because the Pokémon TCG can reuse names across reprints, promos, alternate artwork, and later expansions.

Next, match the finish and condition. A holofoil, reverse holofoil, unlimited, or first-edition listing may carry a different reference price even when it belongs to the same card printing. Grading adds another layer: raw marketplace references should not be treated as prices for PSA, Beckett, or CGC slabs.

Finally, compare the visible update date with current marketplace listings and recent sold results. MonZap gives you a fast catalog reference, set context, and scanner workflow, while the linked marketplaces help you check what is available right now.
