Pokémon Power:
Revive Friends
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may flip a coin. If heads, search your deck for a card named Kabuto and put it on your Bench. Shuffle your deck afterward. Treat the new Kabuto as a Basic Pokémon. This power can't be used if Kabuto is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed (or if your Bench is full).
Attacks
- Work Together10+


Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 10 damage plus 10 more damage for each Omanyte, Omastar, Kabuto, and Kabutops on your Bench.
Artwork Description
The artwork on this card depicts Kabuto emerging from a rocky, moss-covered ocean floor, its red shell smooth and shiny, with glowing eyes and yellow legs cautiously peeking out from beneath, blending in with its mysterious surroundings.
Playability Overview
Kabuto's ability to search and revive itself offers consistent board presence, while its cooperative attack encourages building a themed team to boost damage strategically.
Binder Inspiration
Main Binder Theme: Fossil FindsThis card has such a nostalgic vibe with its classic design. I'd suggest placing it on a "Mysterious Origins" page, highlighting its fossil background. The earthy tones and the underwater feel make it a great fit next to other rock and water types like Omanyte or Omastar, creating a cohesive prehistoric look.Additional Binder Suggestions: Ocean Floor / Curious / Retro / Fossil Discovery / Ancient Life
