Shellder is a Basic Water Pokémon with 60 HP. In the Pokédex this is Shellder (#090), generation 1 (Kanto). The card lists Cloyster, Cloyster (#091) under evolves to.

Midori Harada illustrated this card. The same name is on 352 other cards in the catalog.

Shellder (#090) has 13 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 12 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2023. The earliest other card is Shellder 54/62 in Fossil (1999). That card lists 30 HP, and this one lists 60 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Midori Harada illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 9 other cards of Shellder list a different HP.

The attack Tackle lists 10 damage. The cost is Colorless. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "The hardness of its shell surpasses the hardness of a diamond. In days gone by, people used the shells to make shields."

I keep a set binder for Sun & Moon, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Sun & Moon set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Shellder can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
