Poké-Power:
Strange Tentacles
Once during your turn (before your attack), as long as the number of Energy cards attached to the Defending Pokémon is less than the number of Energy cards attached to your Active Pokémon, you may choose an Energy card, if any, in your opponent's discard pile and attach it to the Defending Pokémon. This power can't be used if Tentacruel is affected by a Special Condition.
Attacks
- Poison Sting20
Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned.
Artwork Description
The artwork on this card depicts Tentacruel gliding through a deep, starry ocean, its glowing red orbs pulsing, while its many translucent tentacles swirl gracefully amid bubbles and shimmering light reflections.
Playability Overview
Tentacruel’s ability to recover Energy from the opponent’s discard pile offers strategic energy disruption, but its moderate HP and reliance on coin flips limit consistent offensive power in competitive play.
