The attack Eeeeeeek lists no damage number. The cost is Colorless. Shuffle your hand into your deck, then draw 7 cards. The card text says: If this Baby Pokémon is your Active Pokémon and your opponent tries to attack, your opponent flips a coin (before doing anything required in order to use that attack). If tails, your opponent's turn ends without an attack. The flavor text reads "Because of its unusual, star-like silhouette, people believe that it came here on a meteor."

I keep a set binder for Neo Genesis, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Neo Genesis set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Cleffa can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Baby Pokémon. I still need this card.
