Very lazy. Just eats and sleeps. As its rotund bulk builds, it becomes steadily more slothful.

    I think the card designer should have been fired for it… this is a pretty bad card.

    Player 1: *looks at Power* “No retreat? Oh boo!” :(
    Player 2: “No worries, you’ll be able to retreat after I attached four energies to attack and then flip a heads…”

    Is this the first instance of “Special Conditions” being used?

    The name of this Pokémon Power, とおせんぼ, would instead be translated as “Block” when it shows up again as an attack (Snorlax DP), and ability (PLS Snorlax, PGO Snorlax, likely others in the future). Incidentally, とおせんぼ would also be translated as “Block” when it appears as the name of an attack starting with Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire.
