Primal Clash is a set in the XY series. It was released on February 4, 2015. The printed size is 160. This checklist is longer, at 164 cards. Spheal is 45/160, in position 45 of 164 on this checklist. Before it is 44 Milotic, and after it is 46 Spheal. The listed rarity is Common.

Spheal is a Basic Water Pokémon with 60 HP. In the Pokédex this is Spheal (#363), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card lists Sealeo, Sealeo (#364) under evolves to.

TOKIYA illustrated this card. The same name is on 93 other cards in the catalog.

Spheal (#363) has 16 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 13 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2004 to 2024. The earliest other card is Team Aqua's Spheal 56/95 in Team Magma vs Team Aqua (2004). That card is named Team Aqua's Spheal, while this one is Spheal. That card lists 40 HP, and this one lists 60 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Nakaoka illustrated that card, and TOKIYA illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 12 other cards of Spheal list a different HP.

The attack Ball Roll lists 30× damage. The cost is Water, Colorless. Flip a coin until you get tails. This attack does 30 damage times the number of heads. Weakness is Metal ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "Its body is covered in fluffy fur. The fur keeps it from feeling cold while it is rolling on ice."

I keep a set binder for Primal Clash, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Primal Clash set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Spheal can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
