    Ah, Qwilfish, a good contender for the dubious “least improved” award among pokemon TCG monsters. Unable to keep up with any power creep (and very weak for a starter non evolving basic from the very beginning) , this guy’s only utility continues to be its ability to get off poison and paralysis while being a water type (yes, I know, that’s shooting VERY low.)

    But don’t be fooled. It has mastered a technique that few pokemon could pride themselves wit mastering. Its mind has gained a quantum nature. Flip heads? It’s a slightly more powerful version of the Totodile halfdeck printing(don’t tell me about the energy flexibility: that printing was in a deck that NEEDED it, and you’re almost certainly NOT going to tech in a qwilfish for any reason.) Flip tails? It’s an upgraded version of the Expedition printing.
