Weakness is Fire ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It barely moves, but it's still alive. Hiding in its shell without food or water seems to have awakened its psychic powers." The regulation mark is F.

I keep a set binder for Lost Origin, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Lost Origin set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Dottler can fill a slot in Generation 8 binder (Galar). I still need this card.
